There are strong links between poor oral health and systemic ailments like diabetes, Alzheimer’s, heart disease and certain types of cancer.

The way to a person’s heart is through his stomach, the adage goes. Researchers now think the way to a healthy heart might be through your gums and teeth.

Evidence suggests that the healthier these are, the stronger and less disease-prone the heart is. If you don’t floss or brush, you might be setting yourself up not just for gum disease but also for heart disease. The link between what’s happening in your mouth and in the rest of your body goes further still: gum disease might be a kind of early warning system, with poor oral health linked to diabetes, kidney disease, preterm labour, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease and even certain types of cancer.

“A lot of studies are coming out that suggest some possible link or associations” between oral infection and systemic disorders, says Sally Cram, a periodontist in the District of Columbia, in the US.

There’s a certain logic to the idea that your mouth — your body’s key opening to the outside — is a harbinger of bodily health. Yet the connection is one that many people, even medical professionals, often overlook. Patients tend to minimise oral health, treating mouth issues as merely “dental”. Professionals echo this artificial dichotomy: dentists and doctors don’t really talk to one another; they don’t attend the same conferences; they don’t read the same journals.

But recent research shows a startling correlation between gum health and atherosclerosis, a condition underlying much heart disease: the worse a person’s gum disease, the narrower that person’s arteries owing to a build-up of plaque. This holds even for young, healthy adults who have no other symptoms of heart disease.

Many questions remain about the nature of the body-mouth connection. In gum disease (called gingivitis in the early stages, before it develops into full-blown periodontal disease), the tissue that surrounds the bones supporting the teeth becomes infected. Often this results from the accumulation of bacteria in the plaque under the tissue holding the teeth. The bacteria release toxins and other chemicals that begin to destroy the bone. Scientists believe they circulate and cause damage elsewhere in the body; exactly how remains unclear.

When Maurizio Tonetti of the University of Connecticut in the US conducted a study into whether reversing the production of bacteria and toxins in the mouth would benefit patients who had atherosclerosis, the results were encouraging. He reported in the New England Journal of Medicine last year that patients who underwent an intensive, six-month programme of treatment for gum disease emerged not only with healthier gums but also with improved endothelial function — that is, better function of the lining of the blood vessels.

These findings merit further study of a possible link between gum infections and preterm labour. Observational studies in the US show that rates of preterm birth are higher for women with severe gum disease than those with milder or no such disease.

Gum disease may also be implicated in a “small, but significant” increase in overall cancer risk for men, according to a recent study in The Lancet Oncology. The authors linked gum disease with a higher chance of lung, kidney, pancreatic and blood cancers. A similar pattern is emerging for kidney disease and Alzheimer’s. But as with heart disease and preterm labour, what causes what is not known.

In diabetes, however, the body-mouth connection is clear. Diabetics who have uncontrolled gum disease, Cram said, “have a much harder time (than other diabetics) controlling their blood sugar levels.” The reverse, she noted, is also true: people with uncontrolled diabetes are about “three to four times at greater risk of developing periodontal disease.”

You would think physicians would be telling their diabetic patients to make regular dental visits to head off gum disease and that dentists would be advising patients who develop persistent gum disease to be tested for diabetes. But neither group of practitioners has been especially good at making the connection.

Dental patients need to get past thinking of their dentist primarily as a cosmetic practitioner — a whitener and straightener of teeth — a “fireman” to be called only when there’s extreme tooth pain.

Regular visits to a dentist can make the mouth an early warning system for a variety of problems. Sores or fungus in the mouth, for example, are often the very first indications of infection by HIV or of cancer. Osteoporosis, a disease of the bones, could show up in a routine dental X-ray before you notice its impact on your hips or spine.

“There’s a desperate need for more collaboration between the two specialities,” says Alan Douglass, associate professor of family medicine at the University of Connecticut School of Medicine, the US.

One thing both groups agree on is the power of prevention, which means brushing, flossing and having regular professional cleaning.

Doctors can also help identify patients at risk. The good news is that if you catch gum disease in its early stages, Cram says, “you can reverse it” with procedures such as scaling and root cleaning.

So take care of your mouth. Your heart, your brain and your kidneys may thank you for it. As another US dentist puts it: “Oral health is not an out-of-body experience.”

Cardiovascular Health

Definition: Cardiovascular disease refers to the class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels (arteries and veins). While the term technically refers to any disease that affects the cardiovascular system (as used in MeSH), it is usually used to refer to those related to atherosclerosis (arterial disease). These conditions have similar causes, mechanisms, and treatments. In practice, cardiovascular disease is treated by cardiologists, thoracic surgeons, vascular surgeons, neurologists, and interventional radiologists, depending on the organ system that is being treated. There is considerable overlap in the specialties, and it is common for certain procedures to be performed by different types of specialists in the same hospital.

CLICK & SEE THE PICTURES

Most Western countries face high and increasing rates of cardiovascular disease. Each year, heart disease kills more Americans than cancer. Diseases of the heart alone caused 30% of all deaths, with other diseases of the cardiovascular system causing substantial further death and disability. Two out of three cardiac deaths occur without any diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. Up until the year 2005, it was the number 1 cause of death and disability in the United States and most European countries. A large histological study (PDAY) showed vascular injury accumulates from adolescence, making primary prevention efforts necessary from childhood.

By the time that heart problems are detected, the underlying cause (atherosclerosis) is usually quite advanced, having progressed for decades. There is therefore increased emphasis on preventing atherosclerosis by modifying risk factors, such as healthy eating, exercise and avoidance of smoking.

Transfer Factor Cardio is 4Life’s® patented (U.S. Patent 6,468,534) support product for the cardiovascular system. In addition to promoting specific system support with the power of Targeted Transfer Factor, it contains additional ingredients to help support healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels—all necessary for healthy cardiac function.

During a lifetime, a human heart will pump 55 million gallons of blood through nearly 60,000 miles of blood vessels, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen to trillions of cells. We can give this system a highly deserved break by eating a healthy diet that contains an abundance of essential nutrients, regular aerobic exercise and the revolutionary support of Transfer Factor Cardio.

Scientists now agree that inflammation fuels the development and progression of atherosclerosis: the dangerous accumulation of fat-laden deposits, or plaques, in the arteries. Click to See in this:-> “SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN” article how the old view – that fat builds up inside artery walls – is no longer tenable.

Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Health Fact Sheet:-

*Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the No. 1 killer in America. In 2004, about 871,000 adults in the United States died of CVD, accounting for about 36 percent of all deaths.

*Lack of physical activity is a risk factor for coronary heart disease.

*The relative risk of coronary heart disease associated with physical inactivity ranges from 1.5 to 2.4, an increase in risk comparable with that observed for high cholesterol, high blood pressure and cigarette smoking.

*Surveys show that 24 percent of Americans 18 or older aren’t active at all.
People with lower incomes and less than a 12th grade education are more likely to be physically inactive.

*In 2005, 33.0 percent of male high school students and 29.0 percent of female high school students attended physical education classes daily.

*In 2005, 43.8 percent of male high school students and 27.8 percent of female high school students met currently recommended levels of physical activity.

*According to the 2004 National Health Interview Survey, the following have a physically inactive lifestyle:

*Among non-Hispanic whites, 18.4 percent of men and 21.6 percent of women
*Among non-Hispanic blacks, 27 percent of men and 33.9 percent of women
*Among Hispanics, 32.5 percent of men and 39.6 percent of women
*Among Asian/Pacific Islanders, 20.4 percent of men and 24.0 percent of women

*Even low-to-moderate intensity activities, when done for as little as 30 minutes a day, bring benefits. These activities include pleasure walking, climbing stairs, gardening, yard work, moderate-to-heavy housework, dancing and home exercise.
More vigorous aerobic activities, such as brisk walking, running, swimming, bicycling, roller skating and jumping rope are best for improving the fitness of the heart and lungs.

Herbal Remedy:->YOU can find and maintain cardiovascular health with benefits that include beautiful lowing skin, feel-good energy, good eyesight and optimal sexual and brain function with these herbs :

Hawthorne berry extract, garlic extract, L-carnitine, coral calcium with trace minerals, dandelion root, 40,000 Scoville Heat Units (H.U.) cayenne.
Quik Tip: Hawthorne berry is Europe’s No. 1 “heart healthy” herb – so safe, potent and effective, it’s prescribed by doctors.

Prevention:
Attempts to prevent cardiovascular disease are more effective when they remove and prevent causes, and they often take the form of modifying risk factors. Some factors, such as gender, age, and family history, cannot be modified. Smoking cessation (or abstinence) is one of the most effective and easily modifiable changes. Regular cardiovascular exercise (aerobic exercise) complements healthy eating habits. According to the American Heart Association, build up of plaque on the arteries (atherosclerosis), partly as a result of high cholesterol and fat diet, is a leading cause for cardiovascular diseases. The combination of healthy diet and exercise is a means to improve serum cholesterol levels and reduce risks of cardiovascular diseases; if not, a physician may prescribe “cholesterol-lowering” drugs, such as the statins. These medications have additional protective benefits aside from their lipoprotein profile improvement. Aspirin may also be prescribed, as it has been shown to decrease the clot formation that may lead to myocardial infections and strokes; it is routinely prescribed for patients with one or more cardiovascular risk factors.

One possible way to decrease risk of cardiovascular disease is keep your total cholesterol below 150. In the Framingham Heart Study, those with total cholesterol below 150 only very rarely got coronary heart disease.

A magnesium deficiency, or lower levels of magnesium, can contribute to heart disease and a healthy diet that contains adequate magnesium may prevent heart disease. Magnesium can be used to enhance long term treatment, so it may be a fag in long term prevention. Excess calcium may contribute to a buildup of calcium in the veins. Excess calcium can cause a magnesium deficiency, and magnesium can reduce excess calcium.

Foods for cardiovascular health
Research has shown that a diet that includes dark chocolate, almonds, fish, wine, fruits, vegetables, and garlic can increase life expectancy and decrease your risk for cardiovascular disease.

Eating oily fish at least twice a week may help reduce the risk of sudden death and arrhythmias. A 2005 review of 97 clinical trials by Studer et al. noted that omega-3 fats gave lower risk ratios than did statins. Olive oil is said to have benefits. Studies of individual heart cells showed that fatty acids blocked excessive sodium and calcium currents in the heart, which could otherwise cause dangerous, unpredictable changes in its rhythm.

Cardiovascular disease and salt:
There is evidence from one large unblinded randomised controlled trial of more than 3000 patients that reducing the amount of sodium in the diet reduced the risk of cardiovascular events by more than 25%. This re-affirms evidence from the Intersalt study published in 1988, that high levels of dietary salt are harmful;these results were at the time heavily disputed by the Salt Institute (the salt producers’ trade organisati

In the results of a study of 8,700 adults in the US released in 2008 by the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, researchers found that the people who ranked in the 25% of the lower sodium intake in their diet were 80% more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than the 25% who had the higher intake of sodium in their diet. This particular research implies that low sodium intake is also harmful.

Oral Hygiene and Cardiovascular Disease
Many recent clinical research discuss the direct relation between poor oral hygiene and cardiovascular disease. Oral bacteria and periodontal disease may trigger the inflammation in the coronary arteries and contribute to atherosclerosis (artery hardening and narrowing); same bacteria may determine the clot formation increasing the risk of heart attack or cerebral stroke.

A Shot for the Heart

Scientists are looking at the possibility of a vaccine for cardiovascular disease.

When it comes to cardiovascular disease, India is either one of the world’s greatest laboratories or killing fields, depending on how you see it. The prevalence rate of this ailment has shot up in the last five decades from 4 per cent to 11 per cent of the population. The World Health Organisation (WHO) predicts that by 2010, 60 per cent of all cardiac patients in the world will be Indians. South Asians are genetically prone to the disease, and should thus greet any new prevention option with enthusiasm. Now there is potential for a new approach at controlling the disease: vaccination.

It is not as if everyone can get vaccinated during childhood and secure lifelong protection from heart disease, although it is not something that can be completely ruled out in the long run. Many scientists the world over are actively pursuing vaccination as a strategy to reduce the risk of heart disease significantly. If all goes well, in four or five years we could see the first vaccine entering the market, and that can decrease certain kinds of cardiovascular risk. “We could start clinical trials for a cardiovascular vaccine in two years,” says Johan Frostegard, a scientist at the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden.

Frostegard and his collaborators at Lund University in Sweden recently discovered a new risk factor for cardiovascular disease: low levels of an antibody against a molecule called phosphorylcholine (PC). These antibodies, called anti-PC, decrease the risk for cardiovascular disease. Some people have large amounts of this antibody, while others do not. Since the discovery is new, people from around the world have not been tested for it. Frostegard knows that Swedes have low levels of the antibody compared to inhabitants of New Guinea who live a traditional life. Cardiovascular disease is rare in such people in New Guinea. Frostegard’s method is to increase anti-PC levels in the blood through vaccination. “A vaccine gives you antibodies you should have had in the first place,” he says.

There have been a few other recent attempts at using vaccination to protect against heart disease. One of them, at the US firm AVANT Immunotherapeutics, uses methods to increase high-density lipoproteins (HDL) in the body. The other strategy, again from Lund University, targets low-density lipoproteins (LDL). Both of these methods are early in their development and have not been tested in clinical trials, and it is not certain if the institutions will try to test them. But both have shown the scientific validity of the vaccination approach at preventing or treating cardiovascular disease.

Cardiovascular disease is complex and has many causes and risk factors. It is not clear if we have discovered all the risk factors, or even the majority of them. Some major risk factors have been known for a long time. These include high blood pressure and diabetes. Two other risk factors were discovered a few decades ago: high levels of LDL and low levels of HDL. Both are cholesterols, and increasing HDL and reducing LDL — through diet or drugs — are now part of all strategies to control cardiovascular disease.

There are other risk factors like high levels of triglycerides whose precise role is not well known. Of late, medical scientists have discovered other risk factors, an important one being a molecule called C-reactive protein.

Although we know the risk factors, cardiologists and researchers are yet to agree on a strategy to fight them effectively. Diet and exercise are the first part of any strategy, and it is well known that they work in some cases, particularly in controlling diabetes and high blood pressure.

However, controlling cholesterol is not so easy with diet and exercise because 80 per cent of the cholesterol is manufactured in the body itself. HDL clearly goes up with exercise, but it may not be enough for people who have very low levels to start with.

This is why a class of drugs called statins has become very popular among cardiologists and patients. Statins reduce LDL and boost HDL, but are toxic for some patients. In this context, a vaccine that can reduce the risk factors would be a safe alternative. For example, Una Ryan and Charles Ritterhaus of AVANT showed two years ago that a vaccine could help to increase HDL. These scientists had targeted choleteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), an intermediary molecule that plays an important role in the balance of HDL and LDL. The vaccine they developed induces antibodies against CETP and ultimately increases HDL. But after the acquisition of AVANT by another company called Celldex, it is not clear if the scientists will proceed with the vaccine.

The Karolinska scientists, however, plan to go ahead with developing a vaccine against PC. They expect to be ready with it in two years, and clinical trials would take another two or three years, by which time there would be many other cardiovascular vaccines under development. Vaccines help to address a large number of people with the lowest possible risk. Within a decade, they could become the most important strategy against a large number of diseases, let alone cardiovascular disease.

Lower Cholesterol Early for a Long Life

[amazon_link asins=’B01A031JFQ,0307339114,B001F1FXZU,B00BJV0CHU,0553447165,B00TIK6UPW,B00WFGPAKW,1533478392,B01H2QRR82′ template=’ProductCarousel’ store=’finmeacur-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’4dfc9794-d9ca-11e7-9b47-b7d3681cd82c’]

The best approach to reducing incidence of coronary heart disease, which kills millions every year, is by lowering cholesterol early on, according to University of California researchers.

Pioneering lipid researcher Daniel Steinberg, professor emeritus of medicine, University of California and colleagues Christopher Glass and Joseph Witztum, dismissed current approaches to lowering cholesterol as “too little, too late”.

With a large body of evidence proving that low cholesterol levels equate with low rates of heart disease, “our long-term goal should be to alter our lifestyle accordingly, beginning in infancy or early childhood” and “instituting a low-saturated fat, low-cholesterol diet in infancy is perfectly safe, without adverse effects…”

According to Steinberg, progress has been made in the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD) in adults with cholesterol lowering drugs like statins.

However, while studies show a 30 percent decrease in death and disability from CHD in patients treated with statins, 70 percent of patients have cardiac events while on statin therapy.

Promising new therapies are under development, but with an alarming rate of CHD in the US today, action to curtail the epidemic is needed urgently.

In fact, the researchers propose that lowering low-density lipoproteins (“bad cholesterol”) even in children and young adults is a safe and potentially life-saving standard, through diet and exercise changes if possible. Drug treatment may also be necessary in those at very high risk.

“Our review of the literature convinces us that more aggressive and earlier intervention will probably prevent considerably more than 30 percent of CHD,” said Steinberg.

“Studies show that fatty streak lesions in the arteries that are a precursor to atherosclerosis and heart disease begin in childhood, and advanced lesions are not uncommon by age 30.

“Why not nip things in the bud? Such early signs of heart disease should be taken as seriously as early signs of cancer or diabetes,” he said.

The UC San Diego team noted that studies of Japanese men in the 1950s showed that consuming a low-fat diet from infancy resulted in lifelong low cholesterol levels, and their death rate from heart disease was only 10 percent of the rate of cardiac-related death in the US

These findings were published in Tuesday’s issue of the American Heart Association journal Circulation.

Suitable for: light (sandy) and medium (loamy) soils and prefers well-drained soil. Suitable pH: acid, neutral and basic (alkaline) soils. It cannot grow in the shade. It prefers dry or moist soil and can tolerate drought.

Cultivation:
It is hardy to at least -7°c in Australian gardens but this cannot be translated directly to the British climate because our summers are cooler and our winters longer, colder and wetter. If the plant is capable of surviving our winters it is likely to need a sheltered very sunny position in a well-drained soil. Most if not all members of this genus have the same edible uses.

Propagation:
Seed -..sowing the seed in a greenhouse in the spring. When they are large enough to handle, prick the seedlings out into individual pots and grow them on in the greenhouse for at least their first winter. Plant them out into their permanent positions in late spring or early summer, after the last expected frosts. Cuttings
