Stress?

More of your burden, you find your data, you tell us.

I know of no evidence that says any such thing. Stop making crap up Kumar.

I gave previously one link from HHMI which indicate that chronic stress can compromise immunity.

I am asking that, is it possible that chronic relaxation/rest impact immunity?
 
Anecdotal, short of measuring levels of cortisol, but I would wager anyone that has worked in animal husbandry on a professional level would agree that stress (defined colloquially) in captive animals is almost always correlated with subsequent health decline.

You have an animal exposed to daily germs and the rigors of live that is able to remain vigorous. Then you have a serious period of stress (being but on public display, new cage mates, climate problems, whatever), and shortly thereafter you have bacterial upper respiratory infections (associated with ubiquitous bacteria) ravaging the animal.

Whether or not it is verified, as a matter of practice, the axiom "stress kills" is one of the first things I tell interns and new keepers.

I think stress has both sided effect--good & bad.

Now is the woodcock near the gin.

No, "chronic relaxation/rest" is not a good way to attempt to avoid or control type 2 diabetes.
 
... Two sided approach should be there for complete understanding.
Ah yes, your jain religion again.
What you want Kumar, is for your approach be be assigned equal validity as any other (science) approach.

No matter how moronic an opposing idea is, according to you (your interpretation of your religion) that idea is as valid as any other (better documented) idea.

I liked MK's explanation. I do know that if you work in a very stressful job for a long time it will mess with your head. I guess, I mean, if you work in a very stressful job and over a period of a few years you aren't able to change it, its time to seek other employment. If you are trained to be an Air Traffic Controller you have to live with it. See the movie called "Pushing Tin" and you see how Billy Bob Thornton dealt with the stress. The movie is all about this very subject.

How would it, and why would you think it might?

If chronic alcoholism damages your liver, would you expect chronic abstinence to affect your liver? and in what way?

No, it shouldn't, you are being foolish.

rest and relaxation are good for you. But i can't wait to see what bending of the language you are planning.

I am saying you are making up crap, and you haven't shown that evidence that relaxation causes a decrease in the immune system. False parity and rhetorical exploration are mindless masturbation.

So where is the data Kumar, this is not the JREF speculation forum, and again you know exactly where you are going, stop being coy. You never 'just ask questions'.

So your data that relaxation causes a decrease in the immune system is?

Irrelevant reply.

When chronic stress can compromise immunity then there should be other side of it i.e. how chronic relaxation effect?

There is no specific religion issue agenda but we can relate any good understanding for taking that understanding as an good example. If any religion suggest that stress is bad and we should opt peace and if it is true, we can always say than avoid stress and follow peace. No preaching in it.

I think stress is also dependent on your liking & dedication. One person may feel stressed in one work other may not.

I didn't meant same effect on both way. One is comporomising other is weakening of immunity.

Probably if you do not take or get normal stress and opt chronic relaxation, your immunity may become bit lazy/weak/idle. I think developing obesity is one result.
