In a revealing study from Yale School of Medicine, one single factor was found to affect heart attack more than anything else.
Since heart attack is the #1 cause of death in the world, you absolutely must know about and manage this heart attack factor.
It could save your life!
Researchers studied 3,600 individuals who had recently been hospitalized after surviving a heart attack.
They found that those suffering the most mental stress and worries had the biggest problem recovering from their heart attacks, more chest pain, and worse overall health.
Researchers noticed that women tended to have more mental stress than men and, therefore, more problems recovering from a heart attack.
Now, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Stress is the number one enemy of good health.
For example, high blood pressure (the leading cause of heart attack) is always caused by some kind of stress (mental, emotional, sensory, or physical).
It’s therefore vital that you lower the overall stress hormone levels in your body. Thousands of readers have successfully done so using a simple method I call “Focused Break.”
This set of three easy exercises reboots your system to remove chronic stress cycles and, therefore, lowers blood pressure and improves heart health.
It isn’t true that all instances of high blood pressure is caused by stress, it can just be essential hypertension which has been genetically acquired from your parents or ancestors.
Just to clarify John because you bring up an important point. You are right, high blood pressure can be genetic. But it’s not genetic to rise the blood pressure but rather to be more sensitive to some types of stress. Studies of identical twins have shown that often one has high blood pressure whereas the other doesn’t (and they have exactly the same genes). So removing stress factors is even more important when people are genetically sensitive to high blood pressure.
