Job Stress Can Hurt Your Heart
Published October 11th, 2007
A stressful job increases your chance of a heart attack. Doctors have been telling us that for years. Now, there's a study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, suggesting that going back to that stressful job doubles your chance of a second heart attack.
