In a 2014 Health Promotion Board survey, it was reported that 1 in 4 workers experienced high stress levels, an increase from the 2012 survey where 1 in 5 workers reported rising stress levels. While stress can be positive in keeping us alert, prolonged periods of stress may pose health risk.

Stress comes in many forms and from many factors. From emotional stress due to the passing of a loved one to work stress, or even stress from a lack of sleep. When an individual is stressed, they tend to engage in unhealthy activities, such as smoking, overeating, and drinking to relieve stress. It is also known that stress can contribute to a rise in blood pressure, and long-term stress can increase the risk of having a stroke. 

As such, proper stress management is needed to keep stress related cardiac issues at bay.

This a radio interview with Dr Goh Ping Ping, cardiologist, on 938FM Body & Soul with Daniel Martin.
