HEART AND CIRCULATION-AN EPIDEMIC
OF HEART FAILURE CAN BE STOPPED..WITH A NATURAL APPROACH TO HEART DISEASE!
Heart disease is not a simple problem. It is not caused
by one factor alone, but instead by a complex maze of biochemical changes
occuring in your body. The majority of these caused by lifestyle choices,stress,
toxins and an inability of your body to cope.
Things just wear out...have "had the biscuit" and start
to breakdown.
And believe me, its not because your body lacks "Plavix,
Accupril, Norvasc, Lipitor or any heart medication that you are not well...the
cause is deeper, functional and I believe...treatable and curable.
STATISTICS ON HEART DISEASE......
LOOKING AT HEART ATTACK INCIDENCE
TRENDS...
(From the American Heart Association)
Estimates for the year 2003 are that 71,300,000 Americans have one or
more forms of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
Angina pectoris (AN'jih-nah or an-JI'nah PEK'tor-is) (chest pain
or discomfort caused by reduced blood supply to the heart muscle)
-- 6,500,000.
Stroke -- 5,500,000.
Cardiovascular diseases (Heart and Blood
Circulatory System)
The statistics on heart disease show us that it claimed 910,614
lives in 2003 (37.3 percent of all deaths or 1 of every 2.7 deaths).
(Preliminary)
Other 2002 mortality: total cancer 554,643; accidents 105,695; HIV
(AIDS) 13,544 (preliminary).
Over 152,000 Americans killed by CVD are under age 65.
2003 preliminary death rates from CVD were 359.1 for white males
and 479.6 for black males; for white females 256.2 and for
black females 354.8. (Death rates are per 100,000 population.
The rates listed use the year 2000 standard U.S.
population as the base for age adjustment.)
From 1993 to 2003, death rates from CVD declined 22.1 percent
(preliminary).
In the same 10-year period the actual number of deaths declined
4.6 percent.
SCREENING FOR KNOWLEDGE OF HEART DISEASE
RISKS IN WOMEN AND MEN
As far as the standard testing and the additional testing I would recommend for evaluation of heart health..here is a list I would
suggest you take to your practitioner and discuss it with them:
The best explanations of the tests listed here and what
they mean are found at Lab Tests Online. I am going to give you the links
to the various tests for you to find more easily and read at your leisure.
