(71) Experts have long thought that depression could be bad for your heart. A new research demonstrates just how dangerous it can be. Brenda Penninx, a gerontologist (老年病学家) in Forest University, North Carolina and her colleagues followed 2, 847 people over the age of 55 both with and without heart disease — for four years in order to trace the effects of depression.

Brenda Penninx isn't sure exactly what the connection between heart disease and depression is, but since depression can raise stress, and stress triggers an outpouring
of the hormone cortisol (荷尔蒙肾上腺皮质素), and this could cause heart rate and blood pressure to rise.
Other factors could also play a part: Depressed people are less likely to do physical exercises and eat right than those who do not suffer from the malady.
\huge risk factor, so it's really crucial to take care of our emotions.\
