Brief Anger Episodes Impair Blood Vessel Function, Heightening Heart Disease Risk

New research reveals that even short periods of anger can significantly impair blood vessel health, increasing the likelihood of heart attacks and strokes.

Studies show that anger can temporarily damage blood vessel function, elevating the risk of cardiovascular events.
Anger-induced vascular impairment lasts up to 40 minutes, potentially leading to long-term heart health issues.
Researchers emphasize the need for anger management to mitigate heart disease risks.
Findings suggest that while anxiety and sadness do not affect blood vessel function similarly, anger has a unique and detrimental impact.
Experts recommend lifestyle changes and therapies to manage anger and protect cardiovascular health.
