Who'd have imagined that "engineering" inconvenience and discomfort out of our lives could be a threat to our health and longevity? Like not eating enough fruit and vegetables, many of us are deficient in specific types of health-promoting stress. According to recent research, moderate stress jump-starts biopathways that promote the repair and resiliency of our cells. These biopathways are part of a "rescue team" spearheaded by protective enzymes, proteins, and various growth factors that fling open the doors to better health.
