It accelerates the aging process, even for Alzheimer's or dementia patients.
People who have chronic stress, all of this, tend to high risk.
And who has higher risk of stress of anything?
Black women.
We have twice the risk of dementia than white women.
I did not know that until I wrote the book because I was like, wow, I never knew that.
I never knew that women had twice the risk of Alzheimer's or dementia than men.
So it's clearly something that's happening, and it starts somewhere in our midlife.
But getting back to the hot flash and the connection to chronic disease, the hot flash is women who have higher incidence of hot flashes.
This is what we know.
Women who have hot flashes have night sweats.
People who have night sweats have disrupted sleep.
We know that disrupted sleep is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
We know that women who have disrupted sleep are more likely to have hypertension.
Women who have disrupted sleep are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes because it leads to, when your sleep is disrupted for months, years on end, chronic fatigue.
If you're chronically fatigued, guess what you're not going to do the next day?
You're certainly not going to go to the gym.
You're not going to get up in the morning like, I think I'm going to go on a three-mile run.
So that's why I said a hot flash is often the inciting event for a lot of other things and behaviors that will increase your risk for heart disease as you age.
Yeah.
