Health Hazards of a Broken Heart

National Heart Foundation of Australia’s recent study found that a broken heart can take a life while severe work stress may cause a fewer risks.

Furthermore, abrupt emotional stress due to loss of a loved one could activate a deadly response called broken heart syndrome. However, the link between job stress and heart disease is restricted. The study also cited that during the 1996 European football championship quarter-final, Dutch men had higher chances of dying from heart attack as the Netherlands closely lost to France. 'Awareness of the potential for increased cardiovascular risk among populations exposed to natural disasters and other conditions of extreme stress may be useful for emergency services' response planning,' says Professor James Tatoulis, Chief Medical Adviser at the Heart Foundation.
