Homeopathic Remedies For Stress In Elderly

Stress, the breeding ground for illnesses and chronic diseases can come at any phase of life but its effects can be more pronounced for people who are already at the brim of deterioration.

Yes, we are talking about the elderly population which though may seem to have the best phase of life, can develop severe stress symptoms or what we call as elderly depression either due to outside influences or their own aging body.  

Some common stress factors that might lead to stress in elderly include physical limitation, financial hardship, caring for a spouse or grandchildren, the death of the spouse, healthcare costs, etc.

Signs and symptoms of stress in elderly

  • Loss of appetite
  • Insomnia
  • Muscle pain
  • Tiredness
  • Depression
  • Forgetfulness
  • Lack of concentration
  • Mood swings
  • Change in eating pattern

 

Why are old people more vulnerable to stress?

As one ages, the body’s ability to regulate the production of stress hormones reduces. This results in an excessive production of cortisol and adrenaline hormones to the point that it can even cause diseases like Alzheimer.

As per recent research, elderly women are more vulnerable to an increased level of cortisol  (the stress hormone) levels which can be three times more than that of men.

If not regulated timely, it can affect the hippocampus (a small organ located in the brain and is responsible for memory) causing a reduced ability to store and retrieve information.

Conventional treatments may seem as the ultimate option but a continued exposure to high dose pharma can further aggravate old age stress symptoms.
