resistance = extra effort which requires a problem that has not been solved and remains, returns to claim the body 'other' extra effort, but it is weaker.
exhaustion = everything has its limit, and if not solve the problem is passed to the 3rd phase. Agency resources are lost gradually, even suddenly, being below normal, this depletion can affect the whole organism, a system to a specific organ. But only in extreme cases is irreversible. Three main physiological
neural
immediate = no activation of the system. sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous that control breathing, heart rate, muscle tension [tone] .-
movements activates neuroendocrine = slow causing an increase in the activity of the medulla of the adrenal glands release adrenaline, noradrenaline and catecholamines, this is very important because the body prepares to respond to any external threat either fighting or fleeing .-
endocrine = when the activity is more acute, more intense and sustained. when you can not overcome the problem, this axis controls release of : Glucocorticoids [glucose and corticoids] Mineralcorticoids [especially magnesium] growth hormone scam [thymus and pituitary gland] Thyroid Vasopressin [pressure rises] cortisol [stress hormone production] If stress is caused by an overactive or overload the affected organs is natural that this disorder appear in the same organs.
