Cardiovascular Disease

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the main cause of death in Canada. Smoking, blood cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and diabetes are major risk factors for CVD. The provincial heart health surveys (1987-92) have shown that two in three Canadians have one or more of these major risk factors.

The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and approximately 60 thousand miles of blood vessels, called arteries and veins. The heart pumps blood around the body. The vessels nourish cells by transporting nutrients and waste products, through the blood, around the body. Any interruption in blood supply, for example a heart attack or stroke, causes tissue death so the maintenance of a healthy cardiovascular system is essential.

Most cardiovascular disease occurs due to lifestyle factors such as: 1. Obesity, poor nutrition, and medication usage. 2. Free radical damage due to environmental toxins or smoking. 3. Stress or poor emotional health. 4. Lack of exercise.

Poor nutrition is detrimental to heart health because the heart muscle needs a constant supply of nutrients to keep pumping. The standard North American diet is deficient in vitamins, minerals and essential fatty acids. It is high in saturated fat, refined carbohydrates and chemical additives and preservatives. These substances not only do not give your heart usable energy, but they also contain high amounts of vessel damaging materials like trans-fatty acids.

Free radical damage is also a factor in the development of CVD. Free radicals are unstable molecules that in their bid to become more stable must bump into healthy cells and cause damage. This can cause damage to the smooth inner lining of the vessels and lead to inflammation. Inflammation causes a build up of scar tissue that makes the area susceptible to further damage or plaque formation. Homocysteine, excess iron, food, water, tobacco use and environmental pollutants are the major contributors of free radical damage in the cardiovascular system.
