Cardiovascular Disease is largely a LIFESTYLE disease!

Did you know that Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death in the developed world. It is largely a lifestyle disease, and simple changes in diet and exercise can considerably lower the risk.  One such simple change is an increase in the consumption ofn-3 (omega-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) (1). The authors of a 2009 article estimated that between 72,000 and 96,000 premature deaths could be prevented annually in the U.S. alone by optimizing n-3 fatty acid levels (2).

Antioxidants for Improved Health

Many people these days take antioxidants to counter the detrimental effects of free radicals. Although there is no conclusive proof that antioxidants stop skin from aging, experts do agree they have the ability to 'capture' free radicals and may protect us from certain diseases.

Health and Wellness Industry and its Advantages.

The health and wellness industry is a very promising and favorable business nowadays. Health and wellness products are currently among the latest product trends, and to exploit this opportunity is a very good enterprise for any entrepreneur. In fact, reports are showing that this industry will be worth one trillion dollars by the year 2010.

The health and wellness industry is getting stronger and sales are soaring as more and more people are becoming health-conscious. Many people are aware that existing health issues can be addressed by changing their lifestyle. This means eating natural products like fruits and vegetables, and changing their diet.

This change in diet must be made since most of the food that we take in, even those that are labeled as healthy foods, are actually filled with toxins which accumulate in our body and make us prone to sickness. What’s more, instead of helping to get rid of these toxins, some doctor-prescribed medicines make matters even worse than they already are.
