According to the American Heart Association's Heart Disease andStroke Statistics, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still theUnited States number one killer of men and women of all ethnicgroups. The statistical update for 2005 utilized the statisticscompiled for 2002, or the most recent year that data areavailable. Cardiovascular diseases include high blood pressure,arrhythmia, valve disease, congestive heart failure and stroke.Coronary heart disease (CHD) or hardening of the arteries is thelargest killer of Americans. There were 494.4 thousand coronaryheart disease deaths in 2002 including 179.5 thousand deathsfrom heart attack. The deaths from CHD included 241.6 thousandfemales of which 25.9 thousand were Black females. The number ofdeaths from strokes for Black females was 9.6 thousand.

CVD* Profile: *1 in 4 females has some form of cardiovasculardisease. *Since 1984, the number of CVD deaths for females hasexceeded those for males. *In 2002 CVD caused the deaths of493, 623 females compared with 433,825 males. Females represent53.2 percent of deaths from CVD. *In the United States in 2002,all cardiovascular diseases combined claim the lives of 493,623females while all forms of cancer combined to kill 268,503females. Breast cancer claimed the lives of 41,514 females; lungcancer claimed 67,542. *The 2002 overall death rate from CVDwas 320.5. Death rates were ¬--265.6 for white females --368.1for black females. **In 2002 cardiovascular disease was thefirst listed diagnosis

of 3,164,000 females discharged fromshort-stay hospitals. Discharges include people both living anddead. The risk factors for CVD are not only common in theAfrican America community, they are also preventable. Thesefactors include high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterolprofile, overweight & obesity, abnormal blood glucose and theuse of tobacco. Risk factors are preventable at an early age,before manifesting as cardiovascular disease later.

Lifestyle choices for prevention include but are not limited to:*Exercising 30 minutes daily *Eat vegetables, fruits andgrains *Eat a low fat, low carbohydrate, low cholesterol, lowsalt diet *Eat fish, lean meats, poultry *Drink eight glassesof water daily *Eliminate processed foods, sugar, pastry *Reduce life stressors and/or reaction to stressors *Engage inspiritual activities *Give community service Due to the urgentneed for ongoing intervention to reverse the trend of increasingnumbers of diabetes and obesity, heart disease and stroke, Ihave partnered with the American Heart Association to provide acommunity awareness program to help improve the health andwellness of community residents. This program revolves aroundthe National Go Red for Women and Heart Health initiatives. Tohelp raise the awareness of community residents and its membersat large, of the need for heart health and the prevention of CADin women, I encourage women to join me on February 3 by wearingred, in accordance with the American Heart Association'sNational Go Red for Women Day. In addition I ask women toschedule an appointment for themselves and family members to seetheir nurse practitioner, internist, or pediatrician._____________________________ *Source: The American HeartAssociation
