Some people may not know but heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States of America. Every year in the United States 1.5 million people suffer from a heart attack, in which one third of them are fatal. I believe that the heart is the most essential organ of the human body except for the brain. Day after day it maintains its steady rhythm, pumping blood through the rest of the body. Most of us expect our hearts to work clear into our seventies, a remarkable feat considering its constant use, but there is this thing called heart disease that not only effects elderly but effects people of all ages, shapes, and sizes. More than twenty percent of those who die of heart attacks are under the age of sixty-five, and for many, signs of trouble begin much earlier. Heart disease is one of the most important health issues of our times. The more I learn about it, the better I will be able to help tell others how to cope with it and combat it. I decided to do heart disease because it is a broad subject and there is a lot I can learn and benefit from this subject and its learnings. I hope that my audience will learn about the many types of heart disease and its effects. I wo

In summary, heart disease is a very important subject to learn about because heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States and one needs to know about it and learn what causes heart disease, the types of heart diseases, and how to prevent heart disease. Every year in the U.S. alone 1.5 million people suffer from heart attacks, and a third of them are fatal. As well every 32 seconds one person will die from cardiovascular disease. So to tie up this I learned that heart disease is no small concern, and people need to know how to try to avoid it and how many people it attacks. (C.A., P.1, 71)

The term heart disease refers to a group of heart and artery disorders that are a part of a broader group called cardiovascular disease. Here is a type of heart disease, a heart attack, the closure of one or more of the hears arteries sufficient to damage some heart muscle cells. (J.F. P. 9,13) There are simple things that may mean heart disease. It is not just chest pains, many just experience discomforts, a pressure, an ache, or any disturbing uneasiness that is felt deep within your chest region. Sometimes the pain may not be in your chest at all; maybe neck, arms, back, and abdominal region so beware. One heart disease is called Chronic Stable Angina Pectoris, chronic meaning relatively safe, angina refers to discomfort with coronary artery disease. It means more like squeezing, pressure like sensation, pectoris means chest. Here are some symptoms of Angina Pectoris. Squeezing pressure in the chest and also tightness or pain coming from the chest to neck, jaw, or either arm even pain in the back, pain in the teeth. , Maybe tightness in wrist or belly. One could have shortness though in mild breath. Another condition of heart disease is Congestive Heart Failure, in which the heart, working as a pump, is unable to keep up with the demands placed upon it. (S.B., P.63, 64,246) Congestive heart failure when this occurs the heart weakens and does not work as efficiently as it should and the system for transporting nutrients and removing body wastes is slowed down. (C.A., P.63) Here is another heart disease one should know about it is Coronary Artery Disease when there is a blockage within a coronary artery; the underlying heart muscle is deprived of oxygen and other vital nutrients. This may cause the heart muscle to function improperly. (R.T., P.11) There are some things that are easy complications to see if one has heart disease; they are a drop in blood pressure and an altered heart rhythm. (S.B., P.93) Another type of heart disease is a heart attack it is the result of and active blockage in an artery. (S.B., P.247) A heart attack occurs when the blood supply to the heart is reduced or stopped. Without the nutrients of the blood the heart muscle can not work, if the supply is cut off severely for a long time the heart muscle tissue becomes permanently damaged or dies. (C.A., P.59) The
