Health And Safety Issues
This section includes interesting and informative issues related to your health and safety. Most
offices and business establishments follow regulations regarding health and safety. We cover issues
that mainly relate to safety and health at home, the place where some of our most loved ones live.
Household chores are very often performed as a routine and we seem to forget the fact that some
chores could pose health and safety problems if not performed well. Electric devices and other
appliances are accessible to adults and children and this is why, more attention needs to be given
to health and safety at home. Workplace accidents that are caused due to neglect of health and
safety regulations are tackled by the law, but health and safety hazards at home could leave the family
in grief forever.

The negative effects of stress on health have been given a lot of attention, information
on stress related issues is abundant. However, there is one very important health issue
related to stress that is not explained very clearly. This concerns the relationship between
cholestrol and stress, the dangerous effects of high cholestrol levels are life threatening.
What makes the dangerous effects of stress on cholestrol levels more interesting is that,
it can be avoided quite easily if fully understood. This article describes the reaction of
the brain to stress and explains how, the brain cannot differentiate between physical stress
and mental stress. This causes the brain to ready the body with energy sources, that will be
needed to fight the stressful condition. The liver is directed to produce cholestrol that will
be burnt up during this 'fight' against stress. In cases where the energy required burns up
the excess cholestrol released by the liver, no negative health effects are noticed.
This article discusses the dangerous situation where, the stress is handled without
physical effort, or the stressful situation threatens to become prolonged.
