"Some 7 million Americans suffer from coronary heart disease (CHD), the most common form of heart disease. This type of heart disease is caused by a narrowing of the coronary arteries that feed the heart.
"CHD is the number one killer of both men and women in the U.S. Each year, more than 500,000 Americans die of heart attacks caused by CHD."
The above is true! The actual number of deaths comes much closer to 1,000,000 when you include heart disease, stroke and the related problems.
What is fascinating is that the information above, while true, is part of a large packet of lies published by the Heart, Blood & Lung Institute. Click here, or on the headline above, for the full article.
Although heart disease is the number one killer, and that is asserted by many agencies, the question of whether or not the RATE of death from heart disease is decreasing or increasing is in dispute. The "establishment" (including the Heart, Blood & Lund Institute, and the American Heart Association) want you to believe that heart disease IS the most serious health problem in America, because that is why they get their funding. But, they are between a rock and a hard place! They want the death rate to be declining because that would prove that all the billions of dollars spent on their research and advice is "working." If the death rate is increasing (which it is), that calls into question whether those agencies should continue to get tax dollars for research and advice which is NOT working!
The official American Heart Association report on death from heart disease is included in a report that also admits the change of how these statistics are reported. A full copy is on this web site.
