Researchers have been determined to play a demanding task and put a lot of hard work does not always imply the existence of an unhealthy stress.
The keys seem to be in tension caused by a lack of job control (when the employee is overwhelmed and does not control the situation) and insufficient in obtaining employment and social rewards for the effort.
Although overwork itself does not necessarily work-related stress, people with an overload of work, such as the work without interruption over 11 hours a day, could have a high risk of cardiovascular disease. It was also found work stress is associated with a higher cholesterol levels and increased overweight.
From these results, we recommend to cite stress as another risk factor, along with smoking, high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity or a sedentary lifestyle.
In summary, work stress doubles the risk of cardiovascular death, so it has important public health implications. Therefore, more attention should be paid to the prevention of work stress.
What seems clear is that if a person has suffered an angina or a heart attack, and also add the negative effects of any other difficulties, it is likely that the stress of this situation leads to changes in heart rate and trigger other effects that can destabilize a pre-existing heart disease.
