Cardiologist Anna Korenevich revealed that the main enemy of cardiovascular health is stress, and in discussing the causes of cardiovascular disease, you cannot blame the foods provided for high blood pressure, heart attacks, blood clots, or weak blood vessels, and she believes The doctor said that linking heart disease that occurs in a person only to an incorrect diet is a wrong idea.
One cardiologist said there are worse things for heart health than fast snacks. Anna Korinevich answered that stress, whether frequent or chronic, destroys blood vessels much faster than salt, sugar, trans fats or preservatives.
Along with recommendations for proper and balanced nutrition, tips and techniques that help people improve their resistance to stress and take care of their psychological and emotional health are also very relevant.
The cardiologist also pointed out that nutrition and stress are interconnected in a certain way. For example, stress is exacerbated in the body when it does not get enough of the nutrients it needs - proteins, high-quality fats, complex carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals.
When the body receives too many calories or artificial components from food that it must break down and absorb, this becomes stressful for it as well.
On the other hand, when a person is not under emotional stress, he intuitively gravitates towards a more balanced diet. Due to increased fears or anxiety, people begin to abuse high-calorie or sweet foods, or completely reject them. Such eating behavior It only exacerbates psychological instability and stress.
The doctor explained that in such circumstances, the blood vessels and heart are exposed to excessive pressure, which harms them and causes serious disorders.
