Stress is a natural part of life, but when it becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can take a serious toll on our health, particularly our heart. – dpa
We all get a bit anxious and tense from time to time, but new data suggests that stress is a key factor that is preventing people from protecting their heart health.
According to an Ipsos B&A survey of 1,018 participants for the Her Heart Matters campaign, stress and lack of time (26%), the cost of health checks (25%), low motivation (23%), expensive gym memberships (21%) and the high price of healthy foods (18%) all play roles in why many women don’t take steps to protect their heart health.
