Work Stress
heart disease link |
Stress in the workplace is a major factor in the
development of heart disease and diabetes, a study says.
Stress has long been linked to ill health, but the British
Medical Journal study may have identified the biological
process for the first time. The study of 10,000 civil
servants found a link between stress and metabolic syndrome,
which involves obesity and high blood pressure.
Experts said the University College London report was
"interesting".
Lead researcher Tarani Chandola said: "Employees with
chronic work stress have more than double the odds of the
syndrome than those without work stress, after other risk
factors are taken into account.
"The study provides evidence for the biological plausibility
of psycho-social stress mechanisms linking stressors from
everyday life with heart disease."
During the study between 1985 and 1999, levels of work
stress were measured four times.
The researchers also measured the different aspects of
metabolic syndrome - a cluster of factors which cause heart
disease and diabetes - such as high blood pressure and high
cholesterol levels between 1997 and 1999.
Factors such as social class, smoking, high alcohol
consumption and lack of exercise were all recorded as part
of the study.
The researchers discovered that there was a link between the
amount of stress experienced in their job and the levels of
metabolic syndrome symptoms, even when considering the other
risk factors.
Symptoms
This relationship meant that the more stress someone
suffered, the more likely they were to suffer metabolic
syndrome symptoms.
The researchers said that, for example, men who suffered
chronic work stress were twice as likely to develop the
syndrome as men who had no exposure to stress.
Women with chronic stress were also more likely to suffer
from metabolic syndrome, although they formed only a small
group in the study.
The researchers said one possible explanation for the result
may be that prolonged exposure to work stress affects the
nervous system.
They also suggested that chronic stress may reduce
biological resilience, thus disturbing the body's
physiological balance.
The study also found that both men and women from lower
employment grades were more likely to have metabolic
syndrome, confirming past reports that social status is
linked to the risk of the syndrome. A Diabetes UK spokesman
said the study was "interesting" and confirmed what had long
been suspected.
"The influence of work stress has been known to increase the
likelihood of developing high blood pressure and heart
disease which are factors for diabetes."
Professor Peter Weissberg, medical director of the British
Heart Foundation, said stress was often linked to having
little control over work.
And he added: "The good news is that many of the features of
the metabolic syndrome can be reversed or improved by
lifestyle changes, in particular increasing exercise and
losing weight, combined with stopping smoking."

Jealousy
Jealousy is a disease of the heart. It is, perhaps, one of
the oldest problems of human beings.
Causes of Jealousy
1-Enmity:
One has animosity for a person or group and does not want to
see anything good happen to that person or group.
2-Ambition:
It hurts a person to see someone else ahead or above
him/her.
3-Pride
and Arrogance: When a person is self conceited
and arrogant, he/she feels very jealous to see anyone else
going ahead or doing better.
4-Astonishment:
Some time a person feels astonished that another person
could do better than him/her. He/she feels surprised: 'How
come that person became so rich, so successful, so popular,
etc.?'
5-Fear:
Fear that if another person would have such and such thing,
then he/she may not have it.
6-Desire
for power and prestige: Sometimes a person
becomes jealous because he/she want to make one great by
putting others down.
7-Evil
nature and avarice of the heart: Some people just
do not like to see others happy. They want to see the whole
world in misery and difficulty except their own selves.
Normally jealousy occurs among people who know each other.
It happens among siblings, among family members, people of
the same profession and age.
"Do not be jealous of each other, do not boycott each other,
do not hate each other, do not contrive against each other.
Be all of you brothers to each other.

Learning to Appreciate
"Mom…
I am ready", shouted Zara as she hurried down the stairs
with the gift in her hand. "Trash" came the sound as the
gift fell from her hand and the beautiful ceramic vase broke
into pieces "Oh, no", exclaimed Zara, "Now the gift is gone
and there is no point in going to Afsheen's party now".
The poor girl returned into her room and sobbed. Her mother
went up to see her sobbing daughter and Zara complained,
"Mom, why does this always happen to me?"
Mother stroking her hair said, "My dear, every time when
something bad happens, it gets noticed, but when something
good happens, it goes unnoticed. We always complain when
things don't turn as desired. See you are moaning over the
fall of gift but will you have been excited if it had not
fallen down?"
There is lesson in this above related incident for all of
us. We all act like Zara. We do complain when things turn
bad. We groan and make fuss. We protest about the harshness
of destiny. But, what about the times when things turn well?
Do we notice them? Do we feel pleased? Do we thank God for
it? We rarely do so. The good things go unappreciated. The
nice happenings are not acknowledged. They are mostly taken
for granted.
It is not only the young ones but elders also who tend to
forget to appreciate the good things. Flat tyre makes the
elder brother angry. But how many times is he able to ride
without having flat tyre? Of course the frequency of
occurrence of flat tyre as compared to no flat tyre is too
low. Same is the case with other bad things. The number of
nice things and good happenings is much more than the bad
ones. Still the bad ones get noticed and the good ones pass
unacknowledged.
Dear fellows, learn to appreciate the good things. Thank God
for them. Keep in touch with God in good times as well as
bad ones. Most people turn to Lord when bad things happen.
Angels find such voices as new. But for those who remember
Allah in good times also, when they pray for help in bad
times, angels recognize them. They say this is familiar
voice and they ask God to help him because he did not forget
Him in good times.
Food for thought for this week is to analyze yourself… find
out if you appreciate and notice the good things that happen
to you, or just the bad? And mend your behavior for the
good. The secret is: there is always something to complain
about and there is always something to be thankful for. You
have to make the choice.
