Anxiety is a natural response of our body, which prepares the body against any external harm or threat, sensing danger the brain signals a hormone which prepares our body to defend itself.
In some people the natural response is set in motion even when there is no threat or harm. Such reaction can cause exhaustion, sense of detachment from the surroundings, lack of concentration increase in blood pressure, headaches and stomach problems.
There are two categories of anxiety, generalized anxiety disorder a chronic condition that involves recurring sense of worry accompanied by physical symptoms like insomnia, depression, low sex drive, inability to relax, muscle tension, back pain and head aches which are the common symptoms of chronic anxiety and Panic attack which comes so suddenly and violently that symptoms are often mistaken as heart attack or some life threatening condition.
It is believed that anxiety may begin after an upsetting event like divorce, accident, death and many other causes. It is found people with anxiety have higher level of lactic acid a chemical which is produced when muscle metabolizes sugar without enough oxygen or it may be due to over production of stress hormones by the brain and the adrenal glands.
Some prominent symptoms of anxiety are extreme fear, dry mouth, dizziness, excessive perspiration, chills, rapid heart breath and breathing.
Supplements of calcium, magnesium and vitamin B complex along with extra thiamine is beneficial for people suffering from anxiety.
Exercising regularly to burn the lactic acid, cutting out caffeine (people with anxiety are extremely sensitive to caffeine) and reducing excess sugar may reduce anxiety.
