 The method of present study was non-experimental causal type. The statistical population included all men and women over 18 years of age in 1400. The sample size was 302 people who were selected from the statistical population by convenience sampling. Due to the outburst of Covid-19 disease, sampling was performed in cyberspace. The links to the online questionnaire containing the Failure Tolerance Questionnaire (Harrington, 2005), STAXI-2 State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-2 (Spielberger, 1999) and the Physical Symptoms Scale (Hagiwara, 1992) were made available on Instagram, WhatsApp and Telegram virtual networks and the sample group was asked to answer the questions. Pearson correlation coefficient and path analysis method were used to investigate the research question. Data were analyzed using version 26 of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS-26) and Partial Least Squares-version 4 (Smart PLS 4).

The results showed that the indirect effects of frustration intolerance on muscular (β=-0.058, P<0.01), general (β=-0.076, P<0.01) and cardiovascular responses (β=-0.075, P<0.01) through latent anger were statistically significant.

The experience of failure beyond tolerance of individuals causes unpleasant emotions such as uncontrolled anger, which in turn causes physiological effects such as increased blood pressure and heart rate, which ultimately damage the cardiovascular system, muscles and general body responses.

The experimental group received food diet training package in 2 sessions of 2 hours and the control group received only usual care. Before and after 12 weeks، patients were evaluated by a Visual Analog Scale. The data were analyzed by descriptive and inferential statistics (t-test and chi square) using SPSS-PC (v. 16). After 12 weeks of intervention، problems related to muscle pain (P=0. 04)، itching (P=0. 03)، drowsy and weakness (P=0. 001)، numbness in hands and feet (P=0. 03)، bone pain (P=0. 03) and tingling feet in intervention group than comparison group showed statistically significant difference.
