A recent study uncovers a significant connection between stalking experiences and an increased risk of heart disease in women. Researchers discovered that being stalked can elevate the risk of heart disease by 41%, while obtaining a restraining order escalates it by 70%. Chronic stress induced by stalking may disrupt heart function and harm blood vessels, emphasizing the importance of early intervention and support. Social support and prompt action are key in reducing the impact of stalking-related stress on heart health.
