The High risk of heart attack in women

As of this writing, Heart Attack is passing cancer in the killing of women.  1 in 3 adult women will have a heart attack.  419,730 women died in 2008 while all forms of cancer killed 270,210 in that same year.

Women are under diagnosed, women are even less informed about the symptoms.  Women over all have a tendency to care for others first and put themselves last and dangerously so; they ignore symptoms.

What are the symptoms?  Neck, shoulder, upper back and abdominal discomfort.
Shortness of breath
Nausea and vomiting
Sweating
Lightheadedness or dizziness
Unusual fatigue

The crushing pain men feel is nothing like what a woman will feel.  She will start to feel debilitating  fatigue
and dizziness with heart palpitations.  These symptoms being less intense are often ignored.  The micro-vascular disease which is more prevalent in woman, a blockage of the smaller arteries cause less acute symptoms.  By the time they notice something is wrong and go to the emergency room it is too late and so much damage is done that is irreversible or worse immediate death.

The inflammatory condition is eroding your body.   There is a simple test can tell you what your over all inflammatory state is and can save your life, let alone your joints and ultimately your heart and arteries. 
A simple blood test that measure the overall acidity of your body is the CRP test (C reactive protein)
Most physicians reject this test as too general.  It can tell you if you are in dire need for the anti inflammatory herbs to stop it in it's tracks.    The scoring on this test is 0 = perfect score you are in proper alkalinity.  1 = warning you are acidic and do something now.  2 = advanced acidity and disease state. 
3 = warning you are in danger of severe damage having already occurred and arterial erosion has been done let alone the over all weakened state for disease to have taken over or in process of doing so.

Acidity can wear the lining of the arteries and cause you to have what you can liken to is a blow out in an inner tube on a bike tire.  You bleed out and death is inevitable.  That is why it is called the widow maker.
You can get a clean bill of heart health and still go out the next day and die.  A sin against humanity that doctors say this simple test is to broad in diagnosis.  They do not treat the body, they treat the symptom.
So a broad test that says you are in a state of inflammation does nothing for them since there is no drug for this.  THANK GOD!!!  What do you do? Write to me and ask.

What are some of the ways a woman can help to prevent this occurrence?  I am a huge proponent of magnesium.  For years I have been saying we are experiencing a magnesium deficiency epidemic vs calcium.  Just now this notion is being observed and recognized.  I am thrilled because I have been swimming up stream against the authorities that be and most would not listen.  Go here to read the 300 functions in your body that depend on magnesium.  

Magnesium Malate in particular and NOW brand for sure.  I have tried so many brands and I always come back to NOW for their Malate.  2 in the evening before bed and one in the am.  You are good to go.  You will be amazed at the reduction in pain.  I don't take it and carpal tunnel starts back up (years of doing massage and typing) and my feet, oh ow, cannot walk without it.  I will hurt all over if I do not take it.  I sleep better too.  At 57 years of age that is a big list of things managed by an $12 bottle of magnesium malate.  There are contra indications with some drugs with magnesium whether malate form or citrate or any other form.  Be sure to consult your pharmacist.  Normally you should take them far apart.  That will be up to the Pharmacist.  Always check drug interactions with herbs and supplements.  Know too, that you should take supplements if you don't eat a good diet.  But that is another blog....

The other underlying issue is sub-clinical hypo-thyroidism.  A clinical epidemic in and of itself. 
Without going into a complete biology lesson suffice it to say...heart disease is a result of hypothyroidism.
Your minerals are managed by your thyroid.  It is a very powerful little gland.  The more you know the healthier your journey.  Stay tuned for more.  Go here for herbal remedies for heart you will be glad you did.  Also VERY IMPORTANT you will see on this page,  how to identify a stroke.
