Stress has long been known to deteriorate health, including how our bodies regulate our eating habits, our physical activity, and our control of blood sugar and lipid levels. High blood levels of sugar and lipids produced by the liver increase the risk of damaging bodily systems that serve to maintain our metabolic balance. Thus, it is important to discover and understand mechanisms that affect how sugar and lipid production are controlled by our bodies.

长期以来，人们都知道压力会损害健康，包括我们的身体如何调节我们的饮食习惯，我们的身体活动以及我们对血糖和血脂水平的控制。肝脏产生的高血糖和高血脂水平会增加损害身体系统的风险，这些系统有助于维持我们的代谢平衡。因此，重要的是要发现和理解影响我们身体控制糖和脂质产生的机制。
