Is Stress Making You Fat? Stress is an unavoidable fact of life that can cause a number of health problems including weight gain. Beyond emotional eating, recent research demonstrates that stress affects your weight on an even deeper level. Stress increases levels of a hormone called cortisol which stimulates your appetite, particularly for carbohydrates. Have you ever noticed that you reach for cakes, chips and starches when you get the stress munchies? That's how you gain weight. And, it¡¦s the kind of weight that gets stored as deep intra-abdominal fat often associated with the apple shape and increased health risks.
