Heart Disease Can Be a Silent Killer.

Do you know that heart disease continues to be the number one killer of both women and men in the Unites States--and that it kills more women than all types of cancer combined?

Men, on average, are prone to developing heart disease about 10 years earlier than women.

Women have estrogenic compounds that appear to protect them against certain heart conditions, leaving men more susceptible to a variety of heart conditions.

After menopause, however, when estrogen levels decline in women, both genders notice about the same incidence of heart disease.

Despite what we see on television, not all heart attacks presents with the "classic symptoms" of chest pain, left arm pain, neck pain, sweating and so on.

In fact, about 30% of all heart attacks don't have any of those symptoms--and are the deadlier, "silent" heart attack.

Why is that?

Because the factors that lead to a heart attack ofent develop silently.

Think about clogged arteries for a minute.

As the arteries are getting more and more congested, there are very few signals that this is taking place.

For some people, they will get more fatigued or have chest discomfort with increaseed arterial blockage, while for others, there will not be any noticeable symptoms.

And while the initial symptom of heart disease may be chest discomfort, your first signs of your a heart attack are likely to be one of the sudden death variety.

The good news is, heart disease develops over many years and it takes quite a long time for your arteries to become clogged.

Because heart disease takes time to develop, you have the ability to change the course your heart health by making adjustments to your diet, exercise and supplement program.

Diabetes, high blood pressure, smoking, high cholesterol with high inflammation, family history and gender are additional risk factors.

Eat Your Way to Better Heart Health

One way to improve your heart health is to increase your intake of Omega-3 fatty acids (generally from fish oil supplements and eating cold-water fish).

You also want to replace commercially raised animal proteins with grass fed animal products (like grass fed beef, for example).

Avoid hydrogenated fats like those found in almost every processed baked-good--including most commercially and bakery-prepared breads, cookies, and crackers.

Take proactive steps to avoid heart disease in the future by making simple changes to your diet, today.
