( Natural News ) Are you in need of stress relief? According to a study published in the journal BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine , carnosol, an antioxidant compound found in rosemary, can relieve chronic stress and help fend off its side effects on the body. The American Psychology Association (APA) reports that a large percentage of Americans, including children, are experiencing chronic stress or its symptoms . A 2010 survey revealed that 44 percent of respondents suffered more significant levels of stress than they did the past year. Common causes included finances, employment, and the economy. The APA warns that chronic stress cannot be ignored as it can result in far-reaching consequences. Stress disrupts brain function, leading to confusion, depression, and anxiety, but its effects do not stop there. Stress also affects other parts of the body , causing conditions like body pain, difficulty or rapid breathing, irregular menstruation in women, erectile dysfunction in men, Type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. More worrisome is the revelation that chronic stress is affecting younger people, too. The noted survey indicated that almost a third of children had experienced physical stress-related symptoms, such as headaches, stomach troubles, and difficulty sleeping. Overweight children were of particular concern as experts noted that stress and being overweight has a bidirectional relationship, meaning that either could be a cause and an effect of each other. A study funded by the Research Affairs of Neyshabur University of Medical Sciences looked into the de-stressing ability of carnosol , a compound found abundantly in rosemary . Their study focused on the antioxidant’s ability to protect the brain from damage caused by stress.
