signs of stress at work :: Article Creator The Signs Of Stress A stressful day at work is almost certain to bring on a headache. But combined with other health problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes, it could also be fatal. The British Heart Foundation says there is growing evidence to show stress is linked to heart disease. It has produced an advice booklet for workers highlighting 23 warning signs of stress. These include exhaustion, loss of appetite, palpitations and feeling irritable. The booklet - which can be downloaded from the internet - explains the connection between stress and heart disease.

Proven risk factors High cholesterol, low physical activity, smoking, high blood pressure, obesity and diabetes are all proven to be high risk factors. The foundation says any one of t

ways to relieve stress :: Article Creator XDefiant Catches Yet Another Delay, But A Stress Test Is On The Way That Should Help Ubisoft Lock In A Release Date You just have to hope this isn't another Skull and Bones situation. If you can believe it, Ubisoft's upcoming shooter XDefiant has been delayed once again, but a new date should be on the way soon. It sometimes seems like XDefiant might never come out, despite the plethora of tests and surprisingly high player count, as unfortunately for those of you that are excited for the game, it's been delayed once again. XDefiant was due out sometime this month, according to a financial report from Ubisoft anyway, but the official Twitter account shared this week that the game needs a little bit more time in the oven before it's ready.

cad condition :: Article Creator Coronary Artery Disease Coronary artery disease (CAD; also atherosclerotic heart disease) is the end result of the accumulation of atheromatous plaques within the walls of the coronary arteries that supply the myocardium (the muscle of the heart) with oxygen and nutrients. It is sometimes also called coronary heart disease (CHD). Although CAD is the most common cause of CHD, it is not the only one. CAD is the leading cause of death worldwide. While the symptoms and signs of coronary artery disease are noted in the advanced state of disease, most individuals with coronary artery disease show no evidence of disease for decades as the disease progresses before the first onset of symptoms, often a "sudden" heart attack, finally arises. After decades of progression, some of these atheromatous plaques may rupture and (along with the activation of the blood clotting system) start limiting blood flow to the heart

high blood pressure chronic illness :: Article Creator What You Need To Know About High Blood Pressure Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is extremely common but hard to self-diagnose. Regular well visits coupled with frequent blood pressure checks are the way to go if you think you are at risk. It is estimated more than half of adults in the United States have high blood pressure, but only 1 in 4 are managing it effectively. There are virtually no symptoms that can be tied directly to hypertension, so the only way to receive a diagnosis is a blood pressure screening on your own or at your primary care office. Dr. James Baronas, a family medicine physician at GBMC Health Partners Primary Care—Jonestown, located at 1017 E. Baltimore Street, reinforced regular checks, especially with a family history or if you have other chronic illnesses, as they can be precursors or run concurrent with hypertension.
