Effects of chronic stress on the heart

A British study has shown that chronic stress related to daily life circumstances can cause long-term changes in the structure and function of the heart, increasing the risk of heart attacks and strokes even before clear symptoms appear. It confirmed that elevated levels of chronic inflammation, associated with stress and psychological pressures, increase the risk of cardiac events by 43%, leading to silent changes in the heart such as thickening of the walls and reduction in size, which may develop into heart failure over time. The study recommended quitting smoking, controlling obesity, and improving physical activity and mental health to reduce chronic inflammation factors and lower cardiovascular risks.
