What is heart disease?
The term heart disease can designate many different heart problems. The most common heart disease is coronary artery disease. She says when a fatty substance called plaque clogs the arteries that carry oxygen and nutrients to the heart. A heart attack occurs when an artery is completely blocked.
What is the incidence of heart disease on women?
Cardiovascular disease, including heart disease part, are the leading cause of death among Canadian women. Women are more likely to die from cardiovascular disease than any other disease.
The obstruction of blood vessels occurs slowly. The damage to the heart over the years can interfere with daily activities.
What are the risk factors for heart disease in the case of women?
Menopause:
At menopause, women are at greater risk of contracting heart disease. Researchers do not know precisely why. They believe that the increased risk may be related to decreased levels of estrogen in women during menopause. Not so long ago, it was believed that hormone therapy could help reduce risk in the case of menopausal women. However, according to recent studies, certain types of hormones (estrogen combined with progestogen) can actually increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, blood clots and breast cancer in some women. Therefore, hormone therapy is not recommended now as a preventive measure against heart disease, although it may be useful for other symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes. Women should always discuss with their healthcare provider to monitor the appropriateness of hormonal therapy.
Hypertension:
Hypertension (or high blood pressure) causes the heart to work harder than normal and requires an extra stress to the muscle. It also damages the walls of blood vessels and increases the chances they get clogged.
Cholesterol:
Cholesterol is a type of fat found in foods and also produced by the liver. It is an essential nutrient for the body. However, excess cholesterol can clog arteries and increase the risk of contracting heart disease.
Diabetes:
Women with diabetes are at greater risk of suffering from heart disease. A number of factors, including hypertension, hypercholesterolemia and abnormally high blood sugar, are taken into account the deterioration of the arteries that carry blood to the heart. The plate is formed more easily once the arteries are damaged.
Smoking:
Women who smoke, especially those under 50 years are more likely to have a heart attack than those who do not smoke. The risks are even higher in the case of smokers over 35 who also take oral contraceptives. Women who do not smoke but who are frequently exposed to secondhand smoke also are at greater risk.
Inactivity:
Inactive women are twice as likely to contract heart disease than active women. Thirty minutes of exercise four to six times a week, helping to strengthen the heart and prevent heart disease.
Top Overweight:
The more overweight a woman is important, the more likely she contracted a heart disease are high. Weight loss, if only a few pounds, can reduce these risks.
Family history:
A woman is most at risk for heart disease if a close blood relatives (eg, father or mother) was diagnosed with heart disease before age 65.
Race:
Although women of all races are at risk for heart disease, this risk is higher in the case of black women and South Asians.
Social and economic factors:
Women whose levels of education and income are lower are more likely to suffer from heart disease. This may be explained by the obstacles they must overcome in order to adopt and maintain a healthy lifestyle can prevent illness.

Soya

As soy is commonly called the fruit of the soybean, a crop which is one of the legumes. Soy is a valuable food because it has a high content of protein. Almost 40% of the plant are made of pure protein. This approximation is sufficient soy protein up to the value of meat and is the ideal food for vegetarians.
In the soybean is very versatile to use in the kitchen. So one can produce from the ground beans, a soy milk, which has proved ideal for lactose intolerance. The pure protein of soybean famous soybean curd, tofu is made. But the seedlings of soybean, the soybean sprouts, nutrition enriched by a number of essential fatty acids and vitamins of the B group.
Additionally, the soy isoflavones valuable, these plant hormones may have a positive impact on hormonal disorders of the female body. Studies in Japan, where a lot of tofu is eaten, have shown that women suffer less from menopausal symptoms there. But on the heart and circulatory system do the ingredients of soy is very positive. Moreover, it was found that in countries with large numbers occur in soy products are consumed cancer and other chronic inflammatory bowel disease is very rare.
But even with the steadily declining support for soybean oil may still represent an important role. For out of soybean oil can be a very valent biodiesel can be produced. The soybean oil derived fuel is characterized by a very high energy efficiency. Almost the entire fuel can be converted into energy by the high yield of energy, it is the ideal substitute for oil. In the fuel from the soybean plant is very environmentally friendly, because it has a very high global warming climate neutrality. That is the burning of biodiesel, which is made from soybean oil caused hardly gases that could harm the atmosphere.
A relatively new discovery is the Sojaseide, this is a textile fabric which is made from soybeans. The Sojaseide is hard to distinguish from real silk, the manufacture is extremely expensive, which is reflected in the price.

A tuberculosis patient Englishman was the end of the 19th Century by a Zulu in Lesotho today with the boiled brew of the South African Cape Pelargonium treated. He allegedly convalesced fully imported and later the plant or its roots to Europe. There he distributed them as a cure for tuberculosis. In the Cape Pelargonium is a rare purple flowering geranium, which grows only in a certain part of South Africa.
Today, the plant is grown on huge plantations and harvested after three years. In a complex process then the root concentrate is produced.

EMI being of light

Through stories of near death experiences (NDE or EMI), we discover the final stage reached by a small number of patients who experienced because it is important to note that statistically, few of them who arrive at this stage of "beautiful landscape" (often less than 30% describe it, and its appearance may differ depending on version) and even fewer who manage to enter into a relationship with strange "beings of light."
Based on this evidence, it seems that contact with them, the near death experience coming to an end, since no relationship with any entity has been reported so consistently.
That perhaps it is the product of our imagination or a guardian angel?
Nobody really knows.
Always it is that it represents a form of higher authority, a creature with human form and provided with a sparkling charisma outside the norm, whose qualities of goodness and the ability to penetrate our minds would soon foreshadowed his approach.
It would perform multiple functions, including one, essential, always turn around notions of "good" and "bad things" that we made on earth.
For that we take stock of our existence, it has the power to make us live our lives here, as an examination of conscience, a true philosophical and ethical reflection would lead us right to a meditation on the nature of our actions.
However, he never espouse the function of a judge who blame us or we sanction, and, on the contrary, he would take care of any award for best to exhort us to distinguish ourselves reach harmful or beneficial to our past actions towards others.
Curious phenomenon that this confrontation with this person, who frankly, does not bear comparison in everyday life.
One must keep in mind that if this step is indeed a must for all, "the witnesses despite themselves" are true survivors of the afterlife that may be responsible for issuing a message that we are supposed to decipher wisely.
Tackling an examination of conscience so acute that can leave deep psychological marks, the first effects should be felt hopelessly out of his coma.
Another peculiarity of this "being of light" would be able to view the misfortunes we still raging on Earth as we almost left, and we would then simply viewers of this film, whose mission would be another power awareness on our part.
Ultimately, the journey would end in a teleportation in a "city of light", and this would be the ability to decide on this trip, by means necessarily supernatural.
These surprising revelations can only reinforce their views of the people honestly versed irrational, especially as these experiences have been recounted in detail by people like you and me, or unrepentant skeptics convinced Cartesians.
EMI being of light has been seen 3529 times.
