"The Interconnected Impact of Global Stress and Inflammation"

A new hypothesis proposes a link between chronic stress, inflammation, and impaired cognition at both individual and societal levels, potentially leading to a cycle of societal dysfunction and environmental degradation. The spread of stress and inflammation through digital communication, particularly social media, is seen as a contributing factor. The study emphasizes the need for multi-level interventions, including lifestyle changes, reduction in social media exposure, and educational initiatives to break this cycle and improve societal resilience to stress.
