Episode Synopsis

📩 Contact us: [email protected] Can anger actually kill you? In this episode, Dr. Zalzal and Dr. Weening break down how intense anger affects your body — and why it can sometimes trigger a heart attack or stroke. We’ve all heard someone say they were “so mad they could explode,” but there’s real science behind that phrase. Anger causes powerful physical changes — your heart rate spikes, blood pressure surges, and stress hormones flood your system. Over time, or even during a single outburst, that reaction can turn dangerous. You’ll learn: - How anger affects your heart, brain, and blood vessels - Why emotional stress can trigger heart attacks and strokes - The link between chronic anger, inflammation, and heart disease - What research says about the “fight or flight” response - Simple ways to protect your heart when emotions run high Anger is a normal emotion — but unmanaged anger can become a real health threat. In this episode, we explain what happens inside your body and what you can do to stay calm and protect your heart. 🎧 Listen on Your Favourite Platforms: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3OFxEjictC41CCS1z2AVKe Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/talking-with-docs/id1799242189 YouTube Music: • TWD Podcast 👕 Shop Our MERCH: https://www.spreadshirt.ca/shop/user/talking+with+docs/ ❤️ Support Oakville Hospital: https://donate.oakvillehospitalfoundation.com 📱 Follow Us: TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkingwithdocs Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkingwithdocs/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063617375848 🛑 DISCLAIMER: This content is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.
