Women: Protect Your Oral Health Heart Disease and Stroke Osteoporosis Heart Disease and Stroke Pregnancy Problems Diabetes ... Respiratory Diseases Heart Disease Several theories exist to explain the link between periodontal disease and heart disease. One theory is that oral bacteria can affect the heart when they enter the blood stream, attaching to fatty plaques in the coronary arteries (heart blood vessels) and contributing to clot formation. Coronary artery disease is characterized by a thickening of the walls of the coronary arteries due to the buildup of fatty proteins. Blood clots can obstruct normal blood flow, restricting the amount of nutrients and oxygen required for the heart to function properly. This may lead to heart attacks. Another possibility is that the inflammation caused by periodontal disease increases plaque build up, which may contribute to swelling of the arteries.

154. PCRM--Health--Cholesterol And Heart Disease Eating habits and other parts of our lifestyle play a large role in therisk of heart disease. And Now the Good News Reversing heart disease. http://www.pcrm.org/health/Preventive_Medicine/cholesterol_and_heart_disease.htm

Every day, more than 4,000 Americans suffer a heart attack. Those who survive often go on to have another one later on. But this need not happen. Eating habits and other parts of our lifestyle play a large role in the risk of heart disease. The good news is that heart disease can usually be prevented and even reversed. Atherosclerosis Atherosclerosis is not caused by old age. When battlefield casualties were examined during the Korean and Vietnam wars, American soldiers had significant atherosclerosis at only 18 or 20 years of age. Their Asian counterparts, raised on a diet consisting mainly of rice and vegetables, had much healthier arteries. The main reason that older people are more likely to have heart problems than younger people is that they have had more time to indulge in unhealthy habits. Similarly, most people do not have a hereditary tendency towards heart disease. In most cases the problem is not usually due to genetics, but to eating and smoking habits. Your doctor can tell you if you are 1 of only about 5 percent of the population with a true genetic tendency towards heart disease. Many studies have shown the connection between cholesterol and heart problems. Beginning in 1949, under the direction of William Castelli, M.D., the population of Framingham, Massachusetts, has been monitored to see what influences the rate of heart disease.

Heart Disease in Women CONTENTS WHY ARE WOMEN SO SUPERIOR ? Are hormones responsible for this gender gap ? What then are the common risk factors for women ? WOMEN, HORMONES AND THE HEART ... Back to Top WHY ARE WOMEN SO SUPERIOR ? By DR.S.SIVASUBRAMANIAN, M.D. Asst.Professor of Paediatric Cardiac Surgery This is one of the most fascinating questions clinical epidemiologists are asking themselves. There is a well-defined gender gap when it comes to an analysis of risks, diagnosis and treatment of coronary heart disease. This article will attempt to reconstruct the factors responsible for this gender gap, and provide some hints on preventing heart disease for both sexes. What are the causes of the gender gap ? "Men are from Mars, Women from Venus" - Gray JM Traditionally, men and women have played different roles in society. These roles result in exposure to a different set of influences. These in turn act on the organ systems in different ways. Unhealthy behaviour patterns Men have been exposed to a higher risk of unhealthy patterns in their lifestyles. Smoking, alcohol consumption, eating a lot of red meat and less of fruits and vegetables are more commonly seen in males. These factors however are only contributory, and not causative, of coronary disease. Work outside home While it has been suggested that work stresses are in a large part responsible for coronary heart disease, recent studies focussed on working women draw different conclusions. For instance, the heart disease risk has been shown to be higher only in subordinate, clerical posts. Successful working women are NOT at a higher risk.
