EMOTIONS AND HEART DISEASE

Growing attention has been paiC
of late to the effects of emotional
stress on the human body and par
ticularly the part ascribed to it in
diseases of the heart The medical
profession has been viewing with
concern the growing part which
this type of disease has been play
ing in incapacitating and shorten
ing the lives of people in the Unit
ed States. Statistics gathered by
insurance and other organizations
have forced upon them a recogni-
ton Of the fact that there is a de-
cided increase in the number and
percentage of maladies of this sort
and also that this disease leads in
mortality figures. Particularly no.
ticeable is the damage done among
people i'll the prime of life.
Physicians have begun to look
among the larger phases of life to-
day for contributing causes. The
hurry and worry and hustle of mod
ern high pressure life has been
shouldered with some of the blame.
But recently and more specifically
many eminent heart specialists are
inclined to place the onus on the
doorstep of the increased emotional
stress of our civilization. The prob
lens of the business depression,
the quest for social precedence, the
struggle for fine careers and So
phistication with their resulting de-
feats and disappointment for
many are being put on the spot" as
culprits.
AS one authority puts it, at is an
unhappy condition of the mind caus-
ed by unfulfllment of desires, con-
fiicts, thwarted ambitions and mans
efforts to escape from his environ
ment and personal limitations that
prepares the way for heart dis
ease" The universal use of stimu-
lants is no help in this situation, he
indicates. He says, "Tea, coffee, to-
bacco and alcohol may make the
heart more sensitive to emotional
