Episode 3404:
Dr. Neal Malik answers the question of whether chronic psychological stress can contribute to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis. Drawing from decades of research and real-world examples, he explains how stress may affect the immune system and shares evidence-based lifestyle strategies that could help reduce symptoms and support long-term health.
Quotes to ponder:
“Long-term stress can also make the immune system hyperactive.”
“When the body’s immune system starts to attack its own healthy cells, we now call this a kind of autoimmune disease.”
“Based on the evidence so far, a separate group of researchers have gone so far as to declare rheumatoid arthritis as a stress-related illness.”
