Why you should read this article
I recommend reading this article because racism has always been a problem in our society and a lot of people I know are affected by this. Racism and discrimination are not only social problems but also cause health risks. Repeated experience of racism causes chronic stress, which affects both physical and mental health. It is important to spread awareness about this important topic.
Racism as a serious health risk
The article shows that racism is not only unfair but also harmful to health. A study from the University of Vienna found that people who often face racism have higher stress levels and their bodies react more strongly by releasing more stress hormones. This constant stress can make people sick, causing heart problems, sleep issues, or in the worst case depression or other mental issues. The article explains that racism can also stop people from getting medical help. It calls for more awareness and training for doctors and therapists so they can understand and support people affected by racism.
Personal opinion
I think this text is very important because it shows how deeply racism can affect people. It makes me realize that discrimination has real health consequences and that society needs to take this issue more seriously. I also believe that doctors and therapists should be better trained to understand this issue.
