Before Bob Marley died, he said to his son Ziggy "Money can't buy life." He was right; all fortune on earth cannot buy health once it is too deteriorated. In fact, if gold and silver could buy health, there would not be so many diseases in the United States. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer, to name a few, are weapons that send thousands of people in the country of silence (death) every year. Cardiovascular disease (CVD)- despite Progress of Science, cardiovascular disease remains the number one killer in the United States. Cardiovascular disease (High blood pressure, coronary heart disease, heart attack, stroke, etc.) is without a doubt the leading cause of death in developed countries. According to the American Heart Association in 2005, cardiovascular disease killed 864,480 people, representing 35.3 percent of all deaths of that year. The problem is that the majority of patients rely on medications only to treat their heart conditions. There is no miracle treatment against CVD; you need a healthy lifestyle: avoiding smoking (including second hand smoke), limit your cholesterol intake, avoid becoming overweight, avoid physical inactivity, and more. Regular Exercise is the best tool to treat or prevent cardiovascular disease. Diabetes- If CVD is raging in the developed countries, diabetes did not remain inactive in the world. There are an estimated 7 million people developing diabetes each year around the world. Complications from diabetes are responsible for almost one death every 10 seconds. The United States are not exempt from that disease. In fact, with a total of 23.6 million diabetics in 2007 (7.8% of the population), the United States are ranked third among the five countries with the greatest number of people with diabetes. Cancer- you do not need a PHD to understand that the effects of cancer are alarming. When it comes to this disease, even optimists wonder if there is hope. Trillions of dollars are spent each year; the disease continues its destructive course. According to a collective expertise of French National Institute for Health and Medical Research (Inserm) published on October 2008, since the beginning of 1980, there is an increase in certain cancers: Lung cancer, mesothelioma, hematological malignancies, brain tumors and cancers of the breast, ovary, testis, prostate and thyroid. With such an increase in diseases, it becomes more important that you take your health in consideration. Although some illnesses are quasi-unpreventable, there are certain primary prevention measures you can take to protect yourself from those scourges. In fact, some of these risk factors for these diseases, including cardiovascular disease, cancer and diabetes may be decreased or prevented.
