So it comes as a surprise to many people that heart disease is the No. 1 cause of death in both women and men.] One out of two women are going to have, live with, and/or die from heart disease and stroke, ... It is amazing women are still not getting that message, and one has to ask why.

To reduce this issue to an abortion issue is a horrible injustice to 100 million Americans suffering the ravages of diabetes, spinal cord paralysis, heart disease, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease, cancer, MS [multiple sclerosis], Lou Gehrig's disease and other fatal, debilitating diseases,

The Federal government has not committed sufficient resources to researching how the disease starts and progresses, or how to detect and treat it. When accounting for all Federal funding on specific cancers, the U.S. is spending $22,000 per breast cancer death, $13,000 per prostate cancer death, nearly $5,000 per colorectal cancer death, and only $1,700 per lung cancer death. Considering that lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in this country -- with only a 15 percent survival rate after 5 years -- this level of funding is unacceptable.

Diabetes is a serious disease, and its complications can be devastating. The good news is that with early detection and treatment, those complications -- as well as the disease itself -- can be prevented or delayed. The American Diabetes Association hopes that this Alert Day will encourage millions of Americans to find out if they could be at risk for diabetes or could be living with the disease and not know it.

People often lose weight as they get into their 70s and 80s, and it's often due to chronic disease, ... A third to a half of people in the older age groups have at least one chronic disease like heart disease, stroke, congestive heart failure, or cancer.

I treated this as a public health emergency, ... A drug that had an 8-to-1 vote in favor of approval and that could any day be approved by the FDA to be used by any of 18 million Americans with type 2 diabetes was, by my analysis, doubling of risk of serious irrevocable cardiovascular events like death, heart attacks and stroke. I dropped everything.

Health and fitness is the first-line approach to avoiding debilitating and even life-threatening complications that come with overweight, such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure,?;stroke and joint problems.

Even though we couldn't find an association with colorectal cancer, fruits and vegetables definitely protect for other important diseases such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, diabetes and potentially other cancers. These are some of the best foods we can eat -- there is no doubt about it.
