Heart Risks Found In 20% of Teens

Did you know that 1 out of every 5 students in Grade 9 have at least one major risk factor for heart disease and stroke? The recent Canadian study shows just how fast teen health is declining.

The study showed an increase in cardiovascular risk factors since 2002. However, the most alarming statistics is that the study reported that 13% of teenagers are obese and 16% had high blood cholesterol levels! Remember this is in Canada (Only around 30 million people, whereas the United States has about ten times the number of people).

Obviously there is a huge problem here. My thoughts would be to implement a more rigorous physical education (P.E) course/make P.E mandatory from middle school all the way through high school. Also, remove junk food from cafeteria's and put in healthier snacks. The kids will complain, but honestly it must be done. Additionally, as part of the P.E curriculum, spend a week, at least, on nutrition and the importance of exercise. These kids need to have this knowledge drilled into their minds so it because second nature to them. Somethings need to change, and change quickly.

5 Warning Signs Men Shouldn't Ignore

Well let us get straight to the point here, men are stubborn. It is hard for some of us to admit it, but it is very true. Men tend to avoid going to the doctor if they experience some... well let's say some sort of discomfort or irregularity. Women on the other hand tend to go to the doctor as soon as they get something like a headache or a stomach ache, well maybe not exactly like that, but they tend to visit the doctor if they notice something that is irregular and could pose a health threat.

Men (yes, myself included), don't really like going to the hospital very much and tend to put off some very troubling warning signs. The problem is the more macho you are (or the more macho you act) the less likely you are to go to the hospital. However, many men experience some warning signs that can be dangerous even fatal in some cases.

1. Chest pain: Well this would seem like a pretty obvious sign that basically comes out with a baseball bat and hits you saying "GO TO THE DOCTOR, RIGHT NOW!!!" However, the truth of the matter is that any men decide to just ignore it. Chest pain can be a sign of heart attack so next time you should probably get it checked out.

2. A big belly: It is true that when men get in relationships and/or get married they tend to put on a few pounds, but a big belly may be a sign of something else. Belly fat could indicate that a man has low testosterone levels, and low testosterone can increase the risk of diabetes and coronary artery disease.


3. An unenthusiastic penis: Yes, impotence can just be purely psychological, but it also could be a sign that a man has cardiovascular disease. If the arteries that supply blood to the penis aren't working properly, those that supply blood to the heart and brain might not be working so well either. Men that have erectile dysfunction should try to talk to their doctors about more than getting that little blue pill.

4. More frequent urination: frequent urination may be a sign of prostatitis, or inflammation of the prostate gland. If you get up in the middle of the night to urinate, especially more than once then you might want to tell your doctor about it.


5. Prescription drug addiction: Some people that get hooked to prescription medication don't even realize they are addicted, and once you get addicted it is probably a pretty good indicator that you should stop. Addiction to anything can be very serious, but when you start popping Vicoden like Pez from a Pez dispenser (Much like Dr. House from the television show that shares the same name) then you should hopefully know you've got a problem.

Top 3 Foods That Lower Blood Pressure

These days everyone is looking for ways to stay as healthy as possible. However, high blood pressure is often overlooked until it becomes a significant problem. When a person has high blood pressure for too long it can lead to heart attacks, strokes and aneurysms. Though it is best to take steps to prevent high blood pressure in the first place, there are certain foods that you can eat to reduce your blood pressure if you think it may be getting to high.

Spinach- It seems on almost all "top foods to eat for ______" lists include spinach. They have good reason too! Spinach does wonderful things for the body. Spinach contains magnesium which protects the heart from disease and is known to lower blood pressure. Additionally, spinach will help protect against things like strokes and heart attacks.

Bananas- Bananas offer a quick boost of energy and a lot more. Along with being rich in potassium and a high fiber content, which help prevent cardiovascular disease, a banana a day is said to fight high blood pressure.

Dark Chocolate- That's right, chocolate! The flavonoids found in dark chocolate are known to lower blood pressure by stimulating nitric oxide production. Nitric oxide tells the muscle around blood vessels to relax, promoting an increase in blood flow and a decrease in blood pressure. Also dark chocolate is know to reduce the levels of bad cholesterol, and even just a small amount of chocolate is needed for the health benefits.

Asaphen 81mg

Asaphen 81 mg can be used in adults for the relief of pain, fever and inflammation due to influenza, the common cold, low back and neck pain, headaches, toothaches, sprains, strains, fractures and even arthritis or dental procedures. Asaphen can also play a major role in the protection of your heart. It is a platelet aggregation inhibitor, and thus can also be used to prevent heart attacks and death in those who have already suffered a heart attack, in those with unstable angina or in those with certain heart disease risk factors. It can help reduce the risk of stroke and death in patients with a history of transient ischemic attacks and can even be used in an emergency situation at the first sign of a heart attack to help decrease its duration and severity.

The most common side effects of Asaphen occur in the gastrointestinal system. These include nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, but heartburn and dyspepsia may also occur. ASA can also cause the stomach or intestines to bleed or ulcerate; however this is less common when taking a low dose, such as the 81 mg Asaphen. More uncommon side effects include vertigo, hearing loss, ringing in the ears, anemia, urticaria (hives), pruritus (itch), asthma, anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction), drowsiness and mental confusion.

Asaphen is fairly safe to use with most other medications. However, you should not take it, except when given the OK by your physician, if you are also taking other prescription anticoagulants such as warfarin (Coumadin) or while you are drinking alcohol, as these may increase the risk of bleeding due to ASA. Always ask your physician or pharmacist before combining any prescription medications, over-the-counter medications or herbals.
