A Cleveland Clinic survey shows the pandemic has lead to poor lifestyle choices resulting in increased stress, weight gain, high blood pressure, and higher cholesterol, all of which can lead to heart attack and stroke
CLEVELAND, Ohio - The spread of COVID has taken a huge toll on Americans, according to the survey of 1,000 Americans by the Cleveland Clinic. It found the pandemic lifestyle has created some dangerous trends.
“Unfortunately, we’ve become more sedentary, and we’ve started to exercise less and started to eat more,” said Dr. Leslie Cho, director of the Cleveland Clinic Women’s Cardiovascular Center. “The average American gained an average of 11 pounds in the last two years, which is a fair amount of weight.”
She said that weight gain and stress has contributed to elevated blood pressure, which can lead to heart attack and stroke.The survey found 27% of Americans that have been diagnosed with COVID-19 say it’s impacted their heart health.“Unfortunately, those comfort foods increase our risk of having diabetes, increasing our cholesterol, which is like a vicious cycle,” said Cho.
