Monday Mornings Are A Killer

[Irish Stu]

As if going back to work after the weekend isn't bad enough, now it seems Monday mornings can kill you.

The stress of returning to work on a Monday morning can trigger a dangerous increase in blood pressure, according to a study.

The Tokyo Women's Medical University study shows blood pressure readings are higher than at any other time of the week.

It may explain why deaths from heart attacks and strokes tend to peak on a Monday morning.

There are 20% more heart attacks on Mondays than on any other day.
