Do You Have 'Holiday Heart'? Well, Maine, It's Not What You Think

Sometimes I feel like I can't keep up with the Tik Tok trends and lango, and the term 'Holiday Heart' surfacing the internet has really just followed suit. When you read "Holiday Heart" don't you automatically think of something heart-warming? Well, it's actually the complete opposite. This term is actually no joke, and to my surprise it has nothing to do with having a big heart for the holidays.

What is Holiday Heart?

According to the national institute of health, it's actually a heart condition linked directly to binging too much during the holidays.

"The term "Holiday Heart Syndrome" is used to describe the manifestation of cardiac arrhythmias following a period of binge drinking, often observed during weekends and holidays". -NIH

One of my favorite parts of Maine is the bars being open on holidays when most are closed. Thanksgiving brought us a huge ice storm this year so my best friend couldn't make it home to Vermont and I couldn't make the trip to Boston. So we had our own holiday in Ruski's..which is always a good time but take this as a little sign not to take it too far for your own holiday season! So my message to you is have fun, but be safe and cognizant of how much fun!
