| Heart Disease - The #1 Health Risk for Women |
| |
By Sara Ruiz, R.D.
What is the number one cause of death for women? If
you are like many women, cancer is the first thing that
comes to mind. Women are often unaware that heart
disease is our number one cause of death because
heart disease has been traditionally thought of as a
disease affecting older men. In fact, almost twice as
many women die of cardiovascular diseases than all
forms of cancer. (1)
Over the past few decades, a lot of attention has been
given to the role of dietary fats and heart disease. Low-
fat eating became synonymous with heart health, and
a host of low-fat products flooded the supermarket
shelves luring the consumer into thinking low-fat
equals healthy. Some even viewed the low-fat label as
the green-light to consume unlimited amounts of
those foods without guilt. In reality, most of these
items were nutrient-depleted, sugar-laden, processed
junk food items that should have no place in anyone's
diet.
