Extractions: Cardiovascular disease accounts for nearly fifty percent of deaths in both the developed world and in developing countries. Indeed, the risk of dying from heart disease is greater than the risk from AIDS and all forms of cancer combined. (Source: WHO) Worldwide, cardiovascular diseases cause 12 million deaths in the world each year. It is the leading cause of death in the US, killing some 950,000 people each year. It also accounts for a significant amount of disability and diminished quality of life. The news is not all bad. The incidence of some forms of heart disease appears to be declining. New screening tools are allowing cardiologists to recognize problems earlier and new treatments are slowing the course of life and improving the quality of life of millions of people. Lifestyle education efforts and the use of aspirin to prevent heart attacks is also improving the public health outlook. In the research fast lane, everything from the human genome project, stem cell research and the recent implantation of the world's first completely implantable artificial heart indicate significant progress on many fronts.

Extractions: Fight Heart Disease and Cancer with Soy Antioxidants The following article was written by Monique N. Gilbert, B.Sc , a Health Advocate, Certified Personal Trainer/Fitness Counselor, Recipe Developer, Soy Food Connoisseur and the author of: Virtues of Soy: A Practical Health Guide and Cookbook Purchase Antioxidants are compounds that prevent or repair damage to cells caused by pollution, sunlight, and normal body processes. These elements cause oxidation in our body, which produce dangerous chemical compounds called free radicals. These compounds are highly reactive and have the potential to damage DNA, causing mutations that can result in the malignant transformation of cells. Free radicals can easily cause harm to the immune system, whose cells divide often. They may also be responsible for some of the changes of aging. We can help the body in its ability to scavenge and destroy free radicals, before they cause harm, by supplying it with natural substances that act as antioxidants. These substances block the chemical reactions that generate free radicals in the first place, and destroy the ones that have already been formed.
