Senior cardiac nurse Chris Allen, of the British Heart Foundation, warns that even tiredness can be a sign of poor heart health. Chris, 30, said: “People don’t realise that if you’re more tired than usual it can be heart disease. Binge-drinking can affect heart rhythmCutting down on alcohol is a great way to fight off heart disease. If your relatives have suffered heart attacks or have heart disease, you are far more likely to develop it too. But there is no direct link between stress and heart disease, or poor sleep and heart disease.
