Does Stress Cause Weight Gain?
How Stress Impacts Our Weight
Stress can be a factor in weight gain. When you're stressed, your body releases hormones like cortisol, which can increase your appetite. Additionally, some people may cope with stress by turning to comfort foods that are often high in calories and sugar. Moreover, chronic stress can disrupt sleep patterns, and inadequate sleep has also been linked to weight gain.
