Stress Hurts the Heart

Posted: Updated:

Researchers at Penn State say stress hurts the heart, especially for women.

A small study finds when men are under stress, blood flow increases, in women it stays the same.

Doctors say less blood flow may explain why women are more likely to have a heart attack during stressful times.
