Theories Regarding Heart Disease and Cold WeatherAnalysis Some people have surmised that heart disease and cold weather are a great combination because in the cold we do not exert ourselves too much and everybody is really cool headed. This can also be taken as sign that there is less stress in living in cold places compared to warmer places. Actually, wherever you are (warm or cold weather) the amount of stress that you receive is dependent on what you are doing. Relaxed and stressed out people are all the same in warm and cold weather places. With regards to food, people is cold places might eat less fatty foods compared to those in warmer places because fats tend to congeal faster in cold places, making them less appealing to look at and to eat. So, many people assume that those who have heart disease and live in cold weather are better off. On the other hand, people who live in warmer places have the tendency to overheat, causing substantial stress on the body and may accelerate heart rate as well. This can lead to risks of death and disability due to heart disease. In warmer weather, there are also more food options, whether healthy or not. One theory regarding heart disease and cold weather is that the cold can actually play havoc on the fats in our system and contribute to build up due to fats moving slower in cold weather. Although, fats can congeal faster in cold weather, the temperature in our bodies is the same no matter where you are in the world. This means that fats will not solidify faster inside the bodies of people who live in cold places. Another idea regarding heart disease and cold weather is that the cold can lead to less physical exertion. This means we sweat less in cold weather due to having reduced heat. This implies that our body fats are not used up properly and may result to having too much of them in our bodies contributing to heart disease. The many theories, ideas and urban legends surrounding heart disease and cold weather may seem ridiculous but there are some that can be true. Studies can bring out the truth in the many theories about heart disease and cold weather. |
