New research suggests that trauma may be linked with a higher risk of developing heart disease, especially among post-menopausal women. According to the study, women who experienced three traumatic events in their lifetimes had poorer heart function than those who had fewer traumatic experiences. More specifically, researchers found that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;endothelial functionâ&#x20AC;? (the layer of epithelial cells that lines the interior of the heart and blood vessels that help regulate the constriction and relaxation of blood vessels) was compromised among women with more traumatic experiences. Endothelial function is considered a risk factor for heart disease and often precedes atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Clearly, traumatic events should be dealt with in order to stave off physical and mental consequences. We welcome people of all ages and from all backgrounds. Our professionals collaborate with clients to create a plan which addresses specific needs and goals. A caring approach integrating evidence-based practices is designed to address lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s struggles effectively in a way that is also uniquely tailored to you and your family. Respect and understanding is at the core of what we do. Please call our office today at 712-364-3500 or 800-325-1192. Our address is 700 East 2nd St., Ida Grove. We help people cope with everyday living. P.S. Given that heart disease is the number one cause of death among both men and women, it is important to be aware of all potential causative factors.
