Stressed Heart?

If stress is intense, and stress hormones are not ‘used up’ by physical activity, our raised heart rate and high blood pressure put tension on arteries and cause damage to them

As the body heals this damage, artery walls scar and thicken, which can reduce the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart
