Impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences on Health
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) like exposure to toxic stress hormones can have a significant impact on a child's mental, physical, and behavioral health. Research from the landmark ACE study conducted on over 17,000 individuals revealed a direct link between toxic stress in childhood and increased levels of stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline. This heightened stress response can lead to various health challenges in adulthood such as depression, addiction issues, and cardiovascular problems.
