This Document Originally Appeared On The AHA Web Site -- Then Disappeared

The document below was originally published to the American Heart Association web site.  It contains lies!  When I first published this expose on the web I predicted that the material below would quietly disappear.  It did.  You can search elsewhere to authenticate this material, but the AHA will probably deny that it ever existed.

Quote From American Heart Association Web Site

NEW YORK (Reuters) -- The good news, say the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is that the death rate from heart disease continues to decline. The bad news: the decline is slowing.

"From 1990 through 1994, ischemic heart disease (IHD) declined in nearly all 50 states," say CDC experts. "However, the rate of decline was slower than rates of previously observed declines."

Ischemic heart disease is the nation's number one killer, comprising over two-thirds of all heart-disease related deaths.

Between 1990-1994, the death rate due to ischemic heart disease for Americans over 55, "decreased 10.3%, from 416.3 deaths per 100,000 to 373.6 deaths per 100,000," the agency says. This averages out to an annual decline of 2.8% per year, they explain -- significantly less than the 1980-1988 annual decline of 3.0% per year.

CDC epidemiologist Dr. Michele Casper says heart disease death rates have been in steady decline since the early 1960s. "Prior to the 1960s, ischemic heart disease mortality was actually increasing as the country became more industrialized, and people had increased access to foods that were high in fat, and lifestyles that were more sedentary in nature," explained Casper. But due to "a combination of both lifestyle factors and medical care," the statistics began to decline in the early 1960s.

She notes that the rates of decline vary greatly depending on race, sex, and state. "It's quite possible that the messages are not reaching all segments of the population," she says, adding that "different communities may have different access to different levels of quality of care."

For example, the study reveals that women residing in New York state displayed more than double the rate of deaths due to IHD than women in Montana (406.3 per 100,000 vs. 156.7 per 100,000). And "rates of decline were faster for whites than for blacks and for men than women," says the CDC report.

The American Heart Association (AHA) labels the slowing decline as "ominous." They say the CDC statistics adjust for age and that medical technology may now be preventing many early heart attacks -- but not those in later years. "People are having heart attacks later and more people are surviving their first attacks," AHA president Dr. Jan Breslow explained. "This results in heart attack deaths being shifted to older ages and the lowering of the age-adjusted death rate. And, unfortunately, this rate is slowing."

But Casper believes medical science can still aid in lowering death rates even further. "We haven't reached the bottom yet, in terms of how far we can reduce heart disease rates," she says.

And she says the report should "alert" policymakers that diet and lifestyle messages can help improve every American's chances at avoiding the disease. "Increased resources need to be put in place in order to make sure that messages advocating heart-healthy diets, cigarette-smoking prevention and cessation, physical activity, and accessibility to health care, are available to everyone," Casper says.

The AHA, meanwhile, point out that the problem is no longer confined to wealthy western countries. "Coronary heart disease is becoming a worldwide problem," Breslow said. He notes that the United Nations' World Health Organization predicts heart disease will replace pneumonia as the world's number one "disease burden" by 2020.
