Selye's theory of General Adaptation Syndrome describes how the body responds to stress through three stages: Alarm, Resistance, and Exhaustion. Selye believed that if stress was prolonged or severe, it could lead to diseases of adaptation, such as cardiovascular disease, hypertension, bronchial asthma, and increased risk of infection. These diseases result from the body's attempts to adapt to the chronic stress.
