A heart attack personality.

Do you get angry often? Do you feel that when you get angry things tend to get done? Do you feel that some people fear you? On one side, it might be giving you the results but on the other side it's putting you at risk of terminal diseases.
By the way, the characteristics demonstrated by an angry person is called aggressiveness. You may be aggressive for a good reason or not so good reason, that will only be known by you and the creator however the toll on your heart will definitely be there. So the terminal disease referred to here is called a cardiac arrest or commonly known as a heart attack.
Individuals who are aggressive or angry in nature tend to put a huge amount of wear and tear on their cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and cognitive systems. The side effect of that is the aging of those cells and a large amount of cortisol secreted in the arteries. The arteries will carry this poison to the whole body. While on the way it will damage the surface of the arteries. When that happens, LDL or also known as bad cholesterol will go and stuck itself to the damage area causing the arteries to be narrowed. Repeated events causes more and more plastering of the LDL.
When the heart is being narrowed, it only takes a medium sized blood clot which also arrises from the cortisol, to get stuck in the narrowed area. This then causes the person to get a heart attack. Studies show that 80% of patients die during the first cardiac arrest therefore your chances of survival is very low.
Most of the time people know that it is harmful but we don't take necessary action because we think we can by pass all of this. Well, thats definitely a wishful thinking.
So, the moral of the story is it comes with a package, if you want to be angry you are then putting your self at risk of a cardiac arrest and yes let's not forget aging as well.
