  • Summary

  • It is widely known that episodes of high stress, even short ones, temporarily impair artery function. To make things worse, people often eat high-fat foods in times of stress, which puts more stress on the cardiovascular system. Listen in this week as Dee discusses a study showing how drinking a special kind of cacao drink may be the antidote to the cardio impacts of high stress and high fat meals.
