  1. Secrets to a Healthy Heart Barb Lagoni Rusty Ost Jo Coogan Healthy Happy Heart Simple Steps to a…

  2. Incidence of Heart Disease • About 600,000 people die of heart disease in the United States every year–that’s 1 in every 4 deaths.1 • Heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women. More than half of the deaths due to heart disease in 2009 were in men.1 • Coronary heart disease is the most common type of heart disease, killing more than 385,000 people annually.1 • Every year about 715,000 Americans have a heart attack. Of these, 525,000 are a first heart attack and 190,000 happen in people who have already had a heart attack.2 • Coronary heart disease alone costs the United States $108.9 billion each year.3 This total includes the cost of health care services, medications, and lost productivity. from CDC 2012 Report jo

  3. Symptoms of Heart Disease in Men • Chest pain alone or when combined with: • Sweating • Shortness of breath • Nausea, vomiting • Pain that spreads from chest to neck , jaw, arms • Dizziness, lightheadedness • Fast or irregular heart beat • Loss of consciousness jo

  4. Symptoms of Heart Disease in Women Often less specific • Fatigue • Trouble sleeping • Anxiety • Difficulty breathing • Indigestion If you suspect you are having a heart attack, chew an aspirin and call 911 jo

  5. One more common symptom of heart attack in both men and women Sudden Death! jo

  6. Heart Disease is an Inflammatory Disease “Every culture that adopts our Western diet eventually develops all our Western diseases.” Michael Pollan In Defense of Food Insulin (produced when we eat carbohydrates) What causes inflammation? Obesity High fat foods barb

  7. Americans at Risk High blood pressure, high LDL cholesterol, and smoking are key risk factors for heart disease. About half of Americans (49%) have at least one of these three risk factors.7 Several other medical conditions and lifestyle choices can also put people at a higher risk for heart disease, including: • Diabetes • Overweight and obesity • Poor diet • Physical inactivity • Excessive alcohol use barb

  8. Rusty Ost, RPh( Registered Pharmacist )Senior Executive Coordinator Family history of heart disease -- Both parents died from Coronary Heart Disease ( stroke and heart attack ) In college my cholesterol was 360 and no one cared. It got as high as 480 pre-Shaklee (and pre-statins) I've gotten it down as low as 153 using supplements and currently it is about 160.

  9. Quadruple Bypass Surgery March, 2000 • In March of 2000 I had quadruple bypass (4XCABG) because I had angina pain and I failed my stress test.   • Following my surgery, the cardiologist told me the 4 major arteries of my heart were blocked 100% (he brought the plug out to show June!), 99%, 97% and 93%. • We spoke about why I wasn't dead. I told him about my supplementation, and he particularly liked the EFA’s (Essential Fatty Acids). He told me they probably saved my life as I should have died of a heart attack 15 years previously. The EFA's kept my blood cells so "slick" they couldn't stick to each other and cause a problem. • My cholesterol at the time of my surgery was 228 because I had been cheating!  I compare it to driving 10 mph over the speed limit for a long time and pretty soon it becomes a habit.  My diet was the same. rusty

  10. Risk Factor # 1 -- Maintaining Ideal Weight • Obesity causes the most serious risks for heart disease: • Elevated triglycerides • Elevated blood sugar • Elevated total cholesterol • Elevated LDL ( bad) cholesterol • Lower HDL ( good cholesterol ) • Inflammation jo

  11. Obesity Strains The Heart The heart is the one muscle in the body that never rests. It must pump blood to every corner of the body .. To bring oxygen and nutrients to every cell. The bigger the body, the harder the heart must work until eventually the walls of the heart become thicker … and then weaker … and then eventually fail.

  12. Why Shaklee 180 Works • Leucine – in smoothees and bars … body uses to build and repair muscle • EGCG , a component of green tea, body uses to burn fat. • Metabolic Boost increases body’s ability to burn calories by 30%. • Stevia not only safe, but has health benefits ( blood pressure, blood sugar, etc)…unlike many diet products with saccharides ( cause bladder cancer ), aspartame ( breaks down into neurotoxins), sucralose ( metabolizes to organochlorides ) • No artificial anything … unlike most diet programs • Chromium, vanadium, and banaba leaf extract help you retain normal blood sugar levels, which in turn help keep your energy up and your metabolism going strong.

  14. Obesity damages all metabolic pathways we rely on to control: Blood pressure Blood sugar Triglycerides Cholesterol HDL/LDL balance Inflammation But, the good news is … all of it is… Completely Reversible jo

  15. Lowering Risk #2 – Fish Oil/Omega 3 Fatty Acids • Makes red blood cells slippery, thus reduces risk of plaque & blood clots • Reduces inflammation • Lowers triglycerides • Lowers blood pressure • Raises HDL…Lowers LDL rusty

  16. Omega 3 Fatty Acids… Shaklee Omega Guard • Ultra pure, pharmaceutical grade, full spectrum of 7 Omega 3 fatty acids • Reduces risk of heart disease and stroke But that’s not all… • Also improves eczema, colitis, arthritis, MS, psoriasis, migraines, reduces C-reactive protein, • Important for brain, eyes, joints, helps ADD & ADHD, memory loss and depression

  17. How much omega 3 fatty acids? If you have never had a heart attack … And have no family history of heart disease— American Heart Association recommends 500 mg omega 3’s Exactly what you get in Vitalizer But If you have had a heart attack or a family history… 1000 to 2000 mg is recommended So add 3 to 6 Omega Guard rusty

  18. To lower risks for heart diseaseRisk Factor #3 -- Cholesterol Oxidation Get serious about our diet … EAT FRUITS & VEGETABLES • Cholesterol is not a problem … until it is oxidized • Nature gives us ANTIOXIDANTS to help prevent oxidation of LDL cholesterol which becomes … PLAQUE • C, E, carotenoids, flavonoids help prevent oxidation REDUCE FATS (but just the bad ones) barb

  19. 2/3 of Your CholesterolIs Produced By Your Body What triggers your liver to produce cholesterol? • Saturated fats and trans fats • Lack of dietary fiber • And …INSULIN Which means … our addiction to sweets, baked goods and high glycemic foods is a major contributor to heart disease! barb

  20. Grain Brain by Neurologist David Perlmutter • Chapter 3 – Beware cholesterol levels getting too low. • Low levels of cholesterol have been associated with increased risk for Parkinson’s Disease. • LDL ( the so-called “bad” cholesterol”)-- is essential to transport cholesterol to the neurons of the brain for proper brain function. • When LDL cholesterol becomes oxidized, it loses its ability to perform this function … and increases the risk for atherosclerosis ( hardening of the arteries ). • Sugar and refined carbs increase rate of oxidation (causing 50 –fold increase in free radical formation ) and plaque formation… barb “LDL is not the enemy.” Carbs & Free Radicals Are.

  21. Refined Carbohydrates Are A Greater Threat to Heart Disease Than Fats Harvard Study Comparing Progression of Heart Disease in Post-Menopausal women.… “Women who ate more saturated fat had less disease progression. Those who ate more refined carbohydrates got worse.” Another study -- “ Risk for a heart attack was higher in patients who replaced saturated fat with refined carbohydrates.” “Sugar is particularly bad because it increases arterial inflammation, insulin levels and blood pressure. It also elevates triglycerides, one of the main heart disease risk factors.” barb

  22. Pharmaceutical & Medical Industry Focused on Cholesterol • 25% of people over 45 on statin drugs ( 36 million ) • Expected to double to 30% or 72 million with new guidelines ( from American Heart Association ) • 86% of people over age 65 are on statin drugs • 102 million have high cholesterol levels goal -- HDL over 45 to 60 LDL under 100 – 130 from CDC barb

  23. The Great Cholesterol Myth: Why Lowering Your Cholesterol Won’t Prevent Heart Disease– and Statin-Free Plan That Will Jonny Bowden, PhD, CNS • Harvard Nurses’ Health Study found 82% of heart attacks and other “ coronary events” were linked to: Smoking Excessive alcohol consumption Obesity Lack of exercise Poor diet NOT high cholesterol • The type of LDL cholesterol .. The pattern is more significant. Pattern A is fluffy and does not cause atherosclerosis. Pattern B is prone to oxidizing into plaque. • Pattern B people need a statin.. Could save their life • Pattern A people don’t barb

  24. Statin Drugs : • Stabilize plaque • Thin the blood ( so do Omega 3 fatty acids) • Are anti-inflammatory ( so are Omega 3 Fatty Acids) “Overall, statins don’t do much for primary prevention (preventing a heart attack in patients who don’t have existing heart disease.) If you’re generally healthy and your only “ symptom” is high cholesterol, you probably don’t need a statin or any other cholesterol-lowering drug.” J. Bowden barb

  25. Side Effects of Statin Drugs Statin drugs block production of important liver enzymes • Statins block an enzyme that produces cholesterol when insulin levels are high ( that’s good ) • They also block Coenzyme Q10 ( that’s bad) • Co Q 10 is needed for energy and cardiovascular health • Recommended to ”boost heart function, repair heart damage and protect against congestive heart failure” • Important for cognitive function -- memory loss/ confusion -- digestive problems -- increased risk for diabetes barb --

  26. Most Serious Side Effect of Statins Muscle pain and weakness If ignored, can cause kidney failure. 86% of Americans over age 65 are on statin drugs. barb

  41. Early Action is Key • Knowing the warning signs and symptoms of a heart attack is key to preventing death, but many people don’t know the signs. • In a 2005 survey, most respondents—92%—recognized chest pain as a symptom of a heart attack. Only 27% were aware of all major symptoms and knew to call 9-1-1 when someone was having a heart attack.5 • About 47% of sudden cardiac deaths occur outside a hospital. This suggests that many people with heart disease don't act on early warning signs.6 • Heart attacks have several major warning signs and symptoms: • Chest pain or discomfort. • Upper body pain or discomfort in the arms, back, neck, jaw, or upper stomach. • Shortness of breath. • Nausea, lightheadedness, or cold sweats.
