Work and Stress

After reading "Workplace Stress, Bad for Heart" I am concerned about my grandma and the stress she has from her job. According to this study by the University College in London, people who feel stress from their jobs have a higher rate for developing metabolic syndrome, a group of conditions such as obesity, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels. My grandma already has had stents put into her arteries 3 times due to blockage in her arteries. Now that she has went back to work after 7 years she has been coming home constantly complaining about her job and the stress it is causing her. Also it doesn't help that her mother is suffering from dementia and has been getting worse each day. I plan to show her this article and hopefully she will take it and use it for her own good. She needs to find something to relieve her stress...so maybe this will give her the incentive!
