As We enter into a New Year. I think I’m resolute to keep taking this website into a better direction. While making each blog post more informative while also making this website…. easier to navigate with information more easily accessible. I’m please with how the last dozen blog post are mapped in this website. When you check them out there is quite a bit of information in them. That’s linked into other blog posts that brings you an abundance of information to respond to if you give the blog a chance and want to start your own research using this website as a search engine for facts on cancer.
Cholesterol has been long been seen as the main culprit to cardiovascular disease. However, nearly half of all heart attacks occur in people with normal levels of cholesterol which suggests that another factor is at work. Researchers have identified cholesterol partner in crime as inflammation and cholesterol wouldn’t be nearly as dangerous without the process.
When high levels of cholesterol occur in the blood stream, excessive LDL begins to seep into the inner wall of the artery. This triggers an inflammatory response which actually speeds up the accumulation of cholesterol into the artery wall. This in turn produces more inflammation and on – and – on. Eventually this deposited cholesterol hardens into plaque, that can rupture leading to blood clots which causes heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular events. That if could be prevented would prevent health care cost…. Health.com: 7 causes of high cholesterol !!!!
Some experts… NOW ….believe that inflammation is the link between the many disease and conditions that affect the heart and brain. Inflammation is the common denominator in nearly all of the diseases we deal with. While Dr. James O’Keefe MD., The Director of Preventive Cardiology at the Mid American Heart Institute in Kansas City, Missouri states, that “Heart disease, diabetes, dementia — whom thinks that they’re all tied to inappropiate, low grade, chronic inflammation.”
The growing understanding of inflammation’s role doesn’t diminish the importance of chlosterol — you still have to keep that “bad” number down and the “good” number up but does present another possibility that does anticipate cardiovascular disease. Studies show that a substance known as C – reactive protein (CRP), one of the so – called markers released by cells during the inflammatory process. Quite possibly maybe more effective than cholesterol in guaging the risk of heart attacks and other cardio – events.
Studies also find…. Association between C – Reactive Protein and cancer rates, mortality. This analysis was researched by a Copenhagen City Heart Study, which was a large prespective study launched in 1976 to explore risk factors for heart disease. While all participants had a baseline CRP level measured using high sensitivity CRP blood test. This analysis included 10,408 participants whom entered the study between 1991 and 1994 0r between 2001 and 2003.
After 16 years of total follow – up, 1624 paticipants developed cancer. People with a high baseline CRP more than 3mg/L had a 30 percent greater risk of developing any cancer compared with those whose CRP was less than 1mg/L. High CRP levels were associated with prostate and quite possibly colorectal cancer risk, however, did not raise breast cancer risk.
Among people diagnosed with cancer during the study period, those who had a baseline CRP 0f more than 3mg/L were 80 percent more likely to die sooner than those CRP levels under 1mg/L. Specifically researchers reported that five years after cancer diagnosis, 40 percent of patients with elevated CRP levels were alive; compared with 70 percent of those patients with low CRP levels.
Whether it’s inflammation keeping you up at night or for the 70 million Americans each year having chronic pain and sinusitis. Costing our health care system 120 billion dollars per year. While having also 1 in 5 Americans using prescription drugs. With another 7 n 10 using over – the – counter Nonsteroidal anti – inflammatory Nsaid’s (aspirin, iburofen and naproxen products for suppressing their pain.) With also various lasting trips to the chiropractor for alignments preventing major lower back problems.
These health issues from joint pain to swollen knees and mild stroke to high blood pressure through abdominal pain can justifiably be resolved. With proper nutrition to keep your hormones, vitamin and mineral levels in balance. Especially what one really has to have cognizance of a vitamin D level in the proper range of 30 to 74 ng/ml. Be careful that range doesn’t get into the 80 ng/ml levels therefore being fat soluble it could be toxic.
Some nutritionist will tell you it’s safe to consume 10,000 iu’s for short time durations. However for only short time durations with a supervision of a medical professional. The most confusing part of this logic when I first started researching this information seven years ago. When you step out in the sun exposure for 20 to 30 minutes you take in by all accounts 20,000 iu’s in a more natural absorption process than synthetic supplements.
