Hundreds of thousands fall victim to heart disease every year. The health-care cost to treat this devastating condition will triple by 2030. In this article you`ll discover the exact numbers and learn three natural ways to prevent heart disease naturally - without pharmaceutical drugs.
One in three Americans have some form of heart disease. What`s more, the cost of medical care for heart disease will rise from $273 billion to $818 billion if our ability to prevent this condition stays the same. "We were all surprised at the remarkable increase in costs that are expected in the next two decades," says Paul Heidenreich, chairman of the American Heart Association expert panel.
Fortunately, if we take a closer look at what causes high blood pressure, stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure and other common conditions, we will see how to prevent them - or even treat them - naturally. Here are three simple and scientifically proven tips that will help you keep a healthy heart:
Pharmaceutical drugs won`t fix heart disease. In 2006, a drug from Pfizer called torcetrapib was found to miraculously raise HDL and lower LDL cholesterol. The result? A 25 percent increase in deaths from heart attacks and 200 percent increase in overall deaths in those taking the drug. After spending $800+ million in development, Pfizer had to cut off torcetrapib`s trial because of "an imbalance of mortality and cardiovascular events".
In the United States heart disease is the number one killer. Statins are the number one selling class of drugs. Do they result in fewer heart attacks and deaths? No. In order to save more lives, it is needed to raise awareness of the possible ways to prevent heart disease naturally.
As someone who lost three years of his life to chronic disease called Candida infection, James Schreiber decided to raise awareness of 'invisible' conditions and natural approaches for better health. Since then, he has authored dozens of articles on the cutting edge of lifestyle and diet modifications. "Life is too short to suffer from Candida, or any other illness," says Schreiber, who recently wrote a Threelac review. "I'm commited through my experience, research and writing to help others live life to the fullest - not in spite of having chronic disease, but because of it."
