How Stress Ups Risk For Stroke, Heart Attack
Dear Reader,
If you're living a stressful life (and who isn't) it can be hard to lead a healthy lifestyle... to eat and exercise as you know you should. Science has shown that difficult emotions like anger, anxiety and depression can affect how the heart functions and increase the risk for dangerous heart disease. Doctors also know that strokes and heart disease are the result of damage to blood vessels that supply the heart and brain, done year after year, silent and symptomless; but there just the same.
The process of damaging these blood vessels is known to medicine as atherosclerosis and it progresses under high levels of chemicals in the body known as pro-inflammatory cytokines. The belief by researchers working in the field is that ongoing stress ups the risk for atherosclerosis and heart disease by evoking the toughest emotions, that in turn raise the amount of pro inflammatory substances circulating through the body.
The current work looked at the underlying neural
circuitry of this body process. Many of the same areas of the brain that are involved in emotion are, surprisingly, also involved in both sensing and regulating the levels of inflammation in the body. The team, led by Dr. Peter Gianaros of the University of Pittsburgh, theorized that the brain action linked to negative emotions, and efforts to regulate them, would bring physical signs of risk for heart disease.
To do find the answer they recruited 157 healthy adults who were asked to
control their reactions to unpleasant pictures while their brain activity was measured using functional imaging. The study also involved scanning the arteries of the subjects for any signs of atherosclerosis and measuring for levels of inflammation in the blood. These levels are a major, identified risk factor for both atherosclerosis and early death from heart disease.

How Stress Ups Risk For Stroke, Heart Attack Continued...
The team saw that people who show more brain activation when controlling their
negative emotions also have higher blood levels of interleukin-6 one of the pro
inflammatory cytokines and increased thickening of the wall in the carotid artery
- a recognized indicator of atherosclerosis. The findings on negative emotion
and heart health held even after controlling for other factors like age, gender,
smoking status and conventional risk factors for heart disease. This supports
the idea that strong emotions are linked to the health of your heart. What is
exciting for researchers is that if they're able to identify the key mechanisms
that link the brain and body it will be possible to break the cycle of feelings
impacting physical health.
We all understand that stress is an inescapable part of life, but if you don't take steps to manage it you're far more likely to be facing serious health problems. When it comes to managing stress, experts suggest you first identify the stressors in your life and then take steps to release the tension. Some good ideas...
-
Be sure to be active on a regular basis,
-
Share your feelings with those you trust,
-
Take some time out for yourself,
-
Find something to laugh at,
-
Eat well (but not junk) and get as much sleep as you can
-
Take your vacations as getting away from it all is very important to your mental
and physical health and well being.
To your good health,

You cast an eye over the room - it's a total mess! Shall you pretend to be out...?
We've all been there - caught out and embarrassed by the state of our homes.
Wouldn't it be great to always have a home that's free of clutter, one you're proud of rather than embarrassed by?
Now you can.
