Heart Attack leading cause of death in Malaysia - the Star 31oct2019

KUALA LUMPUR: Heart attack remains the leading cause of death in Malaysia for the 14th year.

Ischaemic heart diseases, which occur when arteries of the heart cannot deliver enough oxygen-rich blood to the heart, continued to be the main cause of death in Malaysia last year with a total of 18,267 deaths or 15.6% of total deaths from various causes, the latest Statistics on Causes of Death in Malaysia released by the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) revealed.










It was the principal cause of death for males in Malaysia with 12,510 deaths (17.8%) while for females, the principal cause of death was pneumonia with 6,033 deaths (12.8%), it said.

Last year, 172,031 total deaths from various causes were recorded, an increase of 2.3% compared to 168,168 in 2017, it said.

“On average, 50 persons in Malaysia die of ischaemic heart diseases every day,” DOSM said in the statistics released yesterday.

According to the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute in the United States, the most common type of ischaemic heart diseases is coronary heart disease (also known as coronary artery disease).

It is caused by the build-up of plaque inside the coronary arteries. The build-up can partially or totally block blood flow in the large arteries of the heart. The condition may be caused by disease or injury which affects how the arteries work in the heart.

Coronary microvascular disease is another type of ischaemic heart diseases which occurs when the heart’s tiny arteries do not function normally.

Risk factors include smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, being physically inactive, overweight or obese, and family history.

DOSM said ischaemic heart diseases were the principal cause of death in 90 administrative districts in Malaysia and the highest percentage was recorded in Petaling, Selangor (16.3%).

Urban areas recorded 12,101 cases, double that in rural areas (6,166 cases), it said.

Pneumonia was the principal cause of death in 48 administrative districts with the highest percentage recorded in Kota Setar, Kedah (17.8%).

The number of deaths due to ischaemic heart diseases in Malaysia in 2010 was 9,371 and the figures increased gradually through the years. The jump increased more prominently from 2016 to 2017 (13.9%) and from 2017 to 2018 (15.6%).

After ischaemic heart diseases, the second main cause of death last year was pneumonia (11.8%), followed by cerebrovascular diseases (7.8%), transport accidents (3.7%) and chronic lower respiratory diseases (2.6%).

On the main causes of death by age group, 4.8% of those aged 0 to 14 died of pneumonia and 20.4% of those aged 15 to 40 died in transport accidents.

The main cause of death among those above age 40 was ischaemic heart diseases: ages 41 to 59 (19.2%) and ages 60 and above (16.6%).

Erectile dysfunction is an early signal of blood vessel damage, caused by high blood pressure, diabetes and other heart disease risk factors. In fact ED is the centre of a lot of diseases including prostate problems.

Men who have to rely on the dangerous magic blue pill are at severe risk of getting a heart attack or stroke, unless they do something radically different from today.

If your dipstick is down, it's time to do a 30 day cleanse and detox program using products like Natures Tea, SuperChlorophyll, Paraway Plus and Native Legend Tea.

After this cleanse program, followe up wtih a 2 months program on Bioslife to manage healthy cholesterol. blood pressure and blood sugar levels.

Magically your ED will be solved (without Viagra or Cialis), and your dipstick will be up and so will your health. But most importantly, you can prevent the life changing strokes, heart attacks and diabetic complications.

Recovering from a Stroke - Stroke study clinical results

Results of Important Stroke Study presented April 2007 at the 6th Annual Conference on Artheriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Bascular Biology

Unicity’s Cellular Essentials®
Shows Promising Results in the Reduction of Stroke Symptoms

You can go a long time without giving your blood a second thought. Everyday your heart propels your blood through more than 60,000 miles of blood vessels carrying essential oxygen and nutrients to every part of your body and lugging away carbon dioxide and other waste.

A narrowing or blockage in any one of your body’s arteries or veins can create a traffic jam of catastrophic proportions—the nutrition and oxygen your body needs to survive is slowed or even stopped altogether. If the blockage happens in an artery leading to your heart, you suffer a heart attack. If the artery leads to your brain, you suffer stroke.

You may not die, but the quality of your life can change forever. Interestingly, the vast majority of survivors of heart attack, stroke, or aneurysm would have characterized themselves as in good health the day before. It’s hard to determine if you have a life-threatening blockage often until it’s too late.

Keeping your cardiovascular system free of the debris—commonly referred to as “plaque”—that can build up and narrow or close your arteries is crucial.

Unicity’s Cellular Essentials: Proven to Reduce Plaque Buildup in Arteries Dr. Peter Verdegem, Unicity’s Chief Science Officer, conducted a clinical study of patients suffering from carotid artery disease.

Carotid artery disease occurs when the major arteries in your neck become narrowed or blocked. These arteries, called the carotid arteries, supply your brain with blood. Your carotid arteries extend from your aorta in your chest to the brain inside your skull. Carotid artery disease is a serious health problem because it can cause a stroke.

Twenty-four carotid artery disease patients were monitored for a 12-month time period. Fourteen of the patients were given Cellular Essentials and ten patients were not given Cellular Essentials.

The 24 patients were evaluated at the start of the study using carotid ultrasonography. In this painless test, a small ultrasound probe is held to the neck. The probe emits high-frequency sound waves that bounce off of blood cells and blood vessels to show blood flow and problems with the structure of blood vessels. This test determines how open carotid arteries are and how quickly blood flows through them. Carotid ultrasonography detects most cases of carotid artery disease.

At the end of the 12-month time period the patients were once again evaluated by carotid ultrasonography.

The change in the plaque buildup between the two groups of patients was significant.
Those patients who supplemented with Cellular Essentials over the study period actually experienced an 18.2% reduction in plaque buildup, while non-users saw an increase of 5.5%.

Dr. Verdegem was invited to present the results of the study to the scientific and medical community at the 6th Annual Conference on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology.

What Makes Cellular Essentials so Effective?

Cellular Essentials combines two Unicity products Bio-C™ and Cardio-Basics® to produce these amazing results. Dr. Verdegem writes, “Cellular Essentials consists of a high dose of both water- and fat-soluble vitamin C, combined with amino acids, antioxidants, and vitamins and minerals.

The vitamin C is essential to allow the body to repair weak spots in the vascular walls, because vitamin C serves as a prerequisite for collagen synthesis. Without this repair mechanism, the body produces a plaque to thicken the weak spot itself.

“The amino acids in Cellular Essentials serve as building blocks for the proteins that are needed to keep the vascular walls strong. In addition, antioxidants in Cellular Essentials prevent LDL cholesterol oxidation, which would speed up the atherosclerotic process.”
