Dislikes

Spicy food which is too hot. Nasty people who have no idea on your life journey but feel the need to comment and be cruel.

Yes, mental stress triggers the body's fight-or-flight response which evolved to cope with physical danger. The release of cortisol and adrenalin into the bloodstream raises blood glucose, heart rate and blood pressure. Best antidote is physical activity.
