It is also known that stress increases white blood cell count [1] which is essentially a mechanism behind autoimmune manifestations.
Overwork leads to a stress. No wonder useful body cells can be attacked producing a whole range of resulting diseases.
The risk of a heart attack also significantly increases when white blood cell count gets high as their presence fuels inflammatory processes in obstructed blood vessels. Eventually this may lead to a full occlusion which is essentially what heart attack is.
