Stress is the cause of arrhythmia

A recent study by British scientists published in the latest issue of the European Heart Journal shows that stress actually causes coronary artery-related diseases such as arrhythmias.

For years, scientists have always thought that stress may lead to heart disease, but there is little medical evidence to prove this.

Recently, British scientists conducted an experiment for 514 subjects, both male and female, at the average age of 62, before the experiment, these subjects did not suffer from heart disease.

The scientists conducted stress tests for each of the subjects, and recorded their cortisol levels. Cortisol is a major stress hormone that the body produces when people experience mental or physiological stress. Releasing this hormone will cause arteries to shrink in the human body.

Scientists have scanned the arterial images of the experimental subjects and found that the probability of getting the disease accumulating in the arteries of stressed people is 2 times higher than those without stress.

The study has shown that stress is linked to coronary artery disease.
