Stress Tidbits
May 14, 2009
- Worry is derived from an Anglo-Saxon word that means to strangle or to choke.
- Science has uncovered a "Type C" (or Type 1) personality. Less well-known than the angry, heart-attack-prone Type A personality, but no less lethal, Type C's tend to suppress their true feelings. They wind up at high risk for developing cancer.
- When certain plants come under stress, they give off ethylene gas. Insects seem to be aware of these gaseous emissions and hone in on the "stressed-out" plants.
