ربنا يستر .... اللهم انا نسألك العفو والعافيه Over the years, many scientific studies have tried to determine if stress can cause cancer, or cause it to grow faster. When the body is under stress, it releases hormones -- such as adrenaline and cortisol -- that, in the long term, can cause your immune system to become suppressed. That is why you may notice that at times in your life when you were under a lot of pressure, such as exam time in school or just before a job interview, you came down with an illness. Scientists believe that this immune system suppression may make the body more susceptible to cancers such as lymphoma. More recently, researchers have begun to investigate the relationship between stress and genetics. They have discovered that stressful situations may cause certain genes to become activated and others deactivated, leading to changes that could potentially impact the growth of cancer. As an example, science has determined that the stress hormone cortisol can change the body’s genetics and interfere with the ability of tumor-suppressing genes to do their job
