Quell Your Anger
Angry outbursts have a strong physiological effect. According to Harvard Health, research shows that your risk of chest pain, heart attack, and stroke heighten after an angry outburst. If you’re at high risk, an angry outburst could be dangerous.
One study in the European Heart Journal: Acute Cardiovascular Care found that intense anger raises your risk of heart attack by nine times. Angry people are far more likely to have a heart attack up to two hours after an outburst. If you struggle with hot-headedness, reach out to a medical professional for help.
