@Hsaeed97 Great to know in todays medical climate, as many non-emergency appointments are being moved online via telemedicine! #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@Solimanm4180 Yay seems like adding an extra egg in my ramen all these years was worth it after all! #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@sienna_cole11 Seems there is a fine balance though, as working over time has been linked to a higher risk of developing coronary heart disease #biom4180 https://t.co/IzTNKekGjT

@anamikadutta99 Oxytocin release (cuddle hormone) may have something to do with this?! #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@CardiologyTony That hot bath might help you get a good nights sleep too! Sleep deprivation is known to caused stiffening of the arteries and Ca2+ build up in the myocardium = bad news! #biom4180 https://t.co/zJVLgYpZDx

@amberuog Energy drinks have been known to cause arrhythmias and even seizures when taken in large amounts by young kids. Most people do not take the risk associated seriously because these drinks are so normalized and marketable... #biom4180 https://t.co/5IU0tRTmoL

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@SCampbellCardio Yes! Oxytocin is known as the "cuddle hormone", its release can reduce cardiovascular stress and improve your immune system, Hugging whoever you're isolating with might be worth a try :) #biom4180

@Solimanm4180 Those who suffer from domestic abuse often socially isolate themselves from everyone except their abuser. Social isolation might be confounding factor as it also contributes to hypertension #biom4180 https://t.co/IjeQQjPNGx

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@macfadyen_a Another way to reduce your risk is by consuming less sodium! #biom4180 https://t.co/DVa4DWrGpI

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@SAtheray YES! Isoflavones are phytoestrogens, so it's kind of like taking naturally occurring "estrogen supplements". #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

@crosby96 I definitely think high sodium concentrations have a role in junk foods detrimental effects. This study I found recommends eating a plant-based diet rich in nuts, soy and veggies! #biom4180

If your diet consists of more than 50% processed foods, you could be significantly damaging your heart health. Take all this extra free time you have to learn a new skill: Home Cooking! #biom4180

My great-grandma is almost 97 years old and hasn't had any heart issues! Eating a plant-based diet her whole life might be why?! #biom4180

This article makes me thankful i live in the middle of nowhere because apparently living in a polluted environment can increase your risk of developing heart disease #biom4180 https://t.co/YUnQT5X8Ys

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

Heart attack survivors are more likely to suffer from a 2nd cardiovascular event, however owning a dog can reduce their mortality risk by more than 30% #biom4180

@bhav_aishwarya I found this study that both forehead wrinkles and the development of atherosclerosis are associated with stress. So I'm not sure if forehead wrinkles and heart disease are directly correlated #biom4180

@bajwa_jasmit I'm surprised by how much I enjoyed tweeting about cardiology. It also made me realize how important it is for individuals that are scientifically literate to correct misinformation nowadays. Because one "fact" can really run rampant via social media! #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

A new study shows 30% of individuals in solitary confinement are more likely to have heart attacks and strokes! Extremely relevant to the conditions we are experiencing right now! Remember to reach out to friends and family. #biom4180 https://t.co/ufIx0tqIO7

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

What effects is COVID-19 actually having on people's cardiovascular health. Well COVID-19 is associated with a high inflammatory burden which leads to vascular inflammation, myocarditis, and cardiac
arrhythmias #biom4180

[myocardimeme @myocardimeme]

I've heard that risk of heart attack goes up in post menopausal women due to decreased sex hormone levels, so I guess it makes sense that eating isoflavones (type of phytoestrogen) would lower risk of heart attack for women #biom4180
