Psychological factors can contribute to myocardial infarction (heart attack) through mechanisms like chronic emotional stress, which may elevate blood pressure and contribute to inflammation. Additionally, faulty beliefs can be linked to psychological stress and increase the risk of cardiovascular problems. It’s important to manage stress and adopt a healthy lifestyle to reduce the impact of psychological factors on heart health.
