The major medical causes of kar\u014dshi deaths are heart attack and stroke due to stress and a starvation diet. This phenomenon is also widespread in other parts of Asia as well.<\/p>\n<p>The first case of kar\u014dshi was reported in 1969 with the stroke-related death of a 29-year-old male worker in the shipping department of Japan&#8217;s largest newspaper company.[1] The term was invented in 1978 to refer to an increasing number of people suffering from fatal strokes and heart attacks attributed to overwork. A book on the issue in 1982 brought the term into public usage.<\/p>\n<p>As well as physical pressure, mental stress from the workplace can cause kar\u014dshi. People who commit suicide due to mental stress are called &#8220;kar\u014djisatsu (\u904e\u52b4\u81ea\u6bba).&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sifu Slim joins Dave Ferguson on his show &#8220;Beyond The Cheers&#8221; on BlogTalk Radio!
