Can chronic stress cause heart problems and heart attacks?
Asked by Female, 39 · 2 months ago
Yes, chronic (long-term) stress significantly increases the risk of heart problems and heart attacks by raising blood pressure, damaging blood vessels, and promoting inflammation. It may also lead to unhealthy coping behaviours, such as overeating or smoking, which further harm heart health. Managing stress through regular exercise, adequate sleep, and relaxation techniques is essential for reducing the risk of heart disease.
