Stroke is caused by the same mechanism as a heart attack but is due to a lack of blood to the brain. By reducing your risk for heart attack you also reduce your risk for stroke.
Take care of yourself and happy walking ^_^.

The presence of cavities, gingivitis and missing teeth can predict stroke. Regular brushing and flossing can prevent heart disease and stroke. This is merely an advice and not a substitute for clinical examination. For more queries and assistance visit a dentist. I sincerely hope it helps.
Good luck and take care!
I was admitted, and they ruled out a stroke, and said it may have been a TIA ( mini stroke ) My bloodwork showed megaloblasts...large immature red blood cells. I am assuming now, that this was part of the Vit B12 defieciency. Any suggestions....? Right now I am taking Vit B 12 inj weekly, and mega dose of D3 weekly. Any input would be welcomed. Thank you !
At the age of 30 I had a stroke. During the time I was in the hospital they found an enlarge heart. I am still hear and kicking at the wonderful age of 51. In 1998 a implantabled defibillator was put in. My question is at this age could I still continue a preferbly long life?
Hi, I found this diet plan in Womens World magazine. It is called the holiday soup diet. Or the calender diet. It is based around a barley mushroom soup. You eat it every day for lunch. In the first 8 days I lost eight pounds and in the first 18 days 12 pds. It is very easy to follow and I am never hungry. Feel free to contact me if you need some info or help. Good luck.
After work, doing the necessecities, then eat, read newpaper, watch television, then read a book, then sleep, and next morning will be the same. His diet, are normally, vegetables, moderate oily (olive oil) sometimes, sunflower oil, soup, yeah. But occasionally, his company will invite them to indulge themselves in restaurant food items. ( My dad works in a flour and bakery company, so yeah).
He has hypertension. How am i gonna prevent him form any complications, without exercising?
I had a minor stroke 4 days ago and I also have a very rapid heart rate. My doctor sent me for a Cat Scan and blood tests yesterday. I have since eliminated alcohol, cigarettes, fats & sugars from my life. Can you tell me how soon & what type of exercise I should do to improve my well-being, also if the stroke was caused by fatty deposits do these deposits go away in time by retaining a healthy lifestyle.
My father had and his siblings have large waistlines in proportion to rest of their bodies (even when younger). There is a predisposition for heart problems in their family. My mother died from a stroke and her family also are blessed with disporportionate waistlines.
Wheneve I do lose weight, the waistline seems to be the last to go. If the article I read is true and I am at a higher risk for heart/stroke problems, what can I do to remedy this?
Thank you.
Conduction disease can be a result of a number of causes including coronary ischemia, medications, and/or underlying problems with the conduction system itself. Minimizing the risk of having a heart attack and/or stroke are targeted at maintaining good cardiovascular fitness -- including optimal BP, diabetes, and lipid control, avoiding tobacco use, and regular diet and exercise.
But this is more a full day meal in one
A few weeks ago, my brother underwent a stroke and did the cardiac stress test later which was good. But, as he still had a pain in his chest, he underwent an angiogram too.
Following is the report of the angiogram.
it is good for you and your right with the post above most people used that cabbage soup diet where people only ate cabbage soup 2 weeks to lose weight however the weight comes back. I believe cabbage maybe one of those empty vegetables that fills you up from an appetite perspective but has minimal nutritional value, so you do need to add something else to the cabbage like some kale or spinach for added benefit.
5 ounces of most nuts, including almonds, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. And even though almonds are relatively high in fat and calories, studies show that eating almonds can actually help with weight loss (their protein, fiber, and monounsaturated fats provide the feeling of fullness, preventing overeating).
