Effect of ANGER on HEALTH

*What is Anger*

Anger is a strong feeling of being upset or annoyed because of something wrong or bad : the feeling that makes someone want to take unpleasant action, hurt other people, shout, etc. : the feeling of being angry.

Anger is an emotion characterized by antagonism toward someone or something you feel has deliberately done you wrong.

Anger can be a good thing. It can give you a way to express negative feelings, for example, or motivate you to find solutions to problems. But excessive anger can cause problems.

The root of anger is upsetting or worrying events. We might feel angry about things that are happening in the world right now. We may see things going on which we know aren't right but that we feel powerless to stop. Or we may feel angry at the decisions made by people in power, or by the attitudes of others about issues that matter to us.
Anger affect all aspects of our life e.g social, health and business.

We will limit this awareness to the effect of  anger on Health 

*Anger & Health*

What's the connection of Anger with heart Disease?
 Anger results in the increased production of stress hormones called catecholamines. These hormones increase blood pressure and play a role in the development of artery-clogging plaque, which over the course of many years can lead to coronary artery disease

Researchers found that in the two hours immediately after feeling angry, a person's risk of a heart attack increased nearly fivefold (by 4.74 times), and the risk of stroke increased more than threefold 
Over time, these physiologic effects can lead to calcium buildup in the arteries, metabolic disease, and heart disease. Evidence shows that mental health disorders—such as depression, anxiety, and PTSD—can develop after cardiac events, including heart failure, stroke, and heart attack.
high hostility provided the basis for vascular injury and found a significant relationship between negative emotions (such as anger and hostility) and risk for cardiovascular disorders.
Below are some of the short and long-term health problems that have been linked to unmanaged anger include:
• headache.

Tribute to *Booda Ojo* Ojo Arowosafe, (booda Ojo) is like a brother to me  Since the first day we met at meran I told him  I am from Efon Alaaye, as an ekiti man himself,he has always treated me like a sister. I remember screening when I told him I am Efon, haa Efon, Efon is ogbologbo town in , small but mighty, he said. He is highly talented. A great actor and role interpreter. When I look back at roles he played 30 years ago, I really give it to him. Wearing that huge character as a young man at that time is commendable. If you know him well, you will know how double he lives, he does his rehearsal regularly, always learning incantations aside what is given in a role just to improve himself, yet he ove to pray. He will truly be missed  May his soul rest in peace. Bose Olubo Adegeye
