Impact of Stress On Heart

RESEARCH has shown that heart disease can be increased by 68% in workers who are chronically stressed. Chronic stress due to work piling up can be bad for your heart, especially if your lifestyle is unhealthy. Once the results of research over 12 years of observing more than 10,000 white-collar workers of British government.

 The bottom line is, 68% of workers had likely died of heart disease, suffer a nonfatal heart attack or develop angina (chest pain) if they experience job stress in the long run.

Part of the problem is that workers who experience stress do not have a healthy diet and physical inactivity. So that the lifestyle is an area that is ripe for progress of this disease. 

University College London's Tarani Chandola, DPhil, and colleagues reported their findings online in the European Heart Journal. 

A stressful job has a lot of pressure and a little self-control. Some also included social stress with a boss who has poor relations and colleagues who can not cooperate. Workers who frequently experience death due to heart disease, nonfatal heart attacks and angina, according to the study were young workers aged 30 or 40 years late. 

Young workers who reported experiencing stress have a two-fold risk (68%) higher risk of heart disease than those who did not experience job stress. 

The same thing is happening to older workers, perhaps because they retired when the study and no longer experiencing job stress. 

Stress is known to affect the body physically, mentally, and emotionally. Metabolic syndrome, a group of health problems that make heart disease and diabetes are more severe, is also associated with job stress. 

There are several strategies that can be done to help deal with work stress, ie, exercise, changing diet, meditation, learn stress management techniques or making your job even better not to hit your boss scolds and able to establish good communication with office colleagues.
