What FoundMyFitness Has Covered
PremiumAneurysm risk patterns differ by location, but smoking, blood pressure, and alcohol emerge as recurring concerns. Smoking was associated with higher recurrence after endovascular treatment of brain aneurysms and with abdominal aortic aneurysm risk; alcohol intake…

Alcohol
“Other studies note a dose-response relationship between alcohol intake and cardiovascular diseases: For every 100-gram increase in alcohol consumption (above 100 grams per week or less): The risk for stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, hypertension, and aortic aneurysm increased by 6%–24%.”
Higher serum magnesium concentrations may reduce the risk of brain aneurysms and aneurysmal brain bleeding. (2021)
“This bleeding can cause many complications, including hemorrhagic stroke, brain damage, coma, and even death. Evidence from a 2021 study suggests that higher serum magnesium concentrations reduce the risk of having a brain aneurysm.”
Smoking raises risk of brain aneurysm recurrence after endovascular treatment. (2017)
“From the article: Former and current smokers had a recurrence rate of 26.3 percent, and accounted for 232 of the 296 aneurysms documented in this study. Never smokers, on the other hand, experienced a recurrence rate of 17.2 percent, accounting for the remaining 64 aneurysms.”
Dysregulated tryptophan metabolism contributes to abdominal aortic aneurysm formation in mice. (2017)
“The study is the first to show that genetic deletion of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) or the decrease in the gene expression of kynureninase (KNU) in the body restrained AngII-induced abdominal aortic aneurysm in mice deficient in apolipoprotein e. In addition, the researchers made the discovery that 3-HAA was responsible for AngII-induced abdominal aortic aneurysm in the body.”
The contraceptive pill and hormone replacement therapy may protect against brain aneurysm. (2011)
“Women with cerebral aneurysms were found to have been significantly less likely to have taken oral contraceptives or hormone replacement therapy. Women with cerebral aneurysms also had an earlier average age of menopause.”
Insomnia, hypertension and smoking, but not high triglyceride levels, are considered possible risk factors for brain aneurysm rupture.
“-The risk for intracranial aneurysm was almost three times higher for each 10 mm Hg increase in diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number in a blood pressure reading). -High triglyceride levels and high BMI did not demonstrate an increased risk for intracranial aneurysm and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.”
Early menopause may be linked to increased risk of brain aneurysm. (2012)
“Premature menopause - before the age of 40 - had occurred in one in four (26%) of the women who had had an aneurysm compared with around one in five (19%) of those in the comparison group.”
Smokers may be nearly twice as likely to develop an abdominal aortic aneurysm. (2016)
“[...] The study also found that being older, white, or having high levels of bad cholesterol also increased the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm.”
Study suggests two hours of moderate exercise per week reduces risk of brain aneurysm rupture by 20%. (2019)
“In fact, people who regularly engage in moderate leisure time physical activity are less likely to develop cardiovascular disease than people who are inactive. Findings from a 2019 study suggest that just 30 minutes of moderate exercise daily reduces the risk of experiencing a ruptured brain aneurysm.”
