Does stress make you burn calories?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: Stress will certainly raise your heart rate but the calorie effect of stress depends much more on behavior it causes some people eat others loose their appetite, some people become agitated and fidget or get up and pace while others withdraw and become very still.
