Bel Marra Health Supports Recent Research that Shows a Link Between Cutting Dietary Fat Intake and Reduction in Menopausal Symptoms

August 06, 2012     No comments


Toronto, ON (PRWEB) July 23, 2012

Bel Marra Health, well known for offering high-quality, specially formulated vitamins and nutritional supplements, supports recent research that shows a link between cutting dietary fat intake and reduction in menopausal symptoms.

In a recent study published in the journal Menopause, the impact of lifestyle intervention among women experiencing menopausal weight gain were examined in terms of diet and exercise. This study was initiated to identify an effective scheme to prevent menopausal weight gain to decrease the chances of developing medical disorders that are commonly associated with excessive body weight. Menopausal weight gain has been linked to the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and inferior bone health.

The study involved approximately 38 subjects with menopausal weight gain and an average age of 62.6 years, who were randomly assigned to one of four intervention schemes that consisted of either a low-calorie diet, a fully body exercise program, or both. A control group was also included in the study, which did not introduce any low-calorie diet or exercise program to the study participants. This study on lifestyle interventions addressing menopausal weight gain was conducted for approximately 12 weeks.

The results of the study showed that following a low-fat and low-sugar diet, which generates a small amount of calories, is effective enough in improving the symptoms of menopausal weight gain. The study participants showed an improved metabolic profile, and lower body weight after 12 weeks of participating in the program. Improved results using a combination of diet and exercise were also observed, although the effect on weight loss was much more pronounced in the low-fat and low-sugar diet group.

Spokesperson for Bel Marra Health, Dr. Victor Marchione says, ?Using the low-calorie diet, the study participants also showed a decrease in the blood cholesterol levels and arterial blood pressure.?

This recent medical report has shown that the use of a low-fat and low-sugar diet may facilitate in the control of weight gain that is associated with menopause. CEO of Bel Marra Health Jim Chiang says, ?Although changes in the body, including the termination of production of estrogen, during menopause may be significant enough to affect the normal physiology of the body, it is still possible to improve one?s general health condition through diet.?

Article On Treatment For the Symptoms of Lupus Added by OxygenRemedy.org Today

July 31, 2012     No comments


Fairfax, VA (PRWEB) February 09, 2012

OxygenRemedy.org just released a new section on how people suffering from lupus can get rid of their symptoms naturally though the Oxygen Remedy breathing therapy. The Oxygen Remedy gets to the cause of many chronic diseases- a problem in the way we breathe- and its techniques are used to treat thousands of people suffering from chronic diseases.

Richard Geller, coach from OxygenRemedy.org, announced today, ?Millions suffer from the chronic disease lupus. Scientists haven?t found a definitive cure or cause for this disease. Sufferers are always in danger of another flare-up and all doctors can do is treat the symptoms. They need a therapy that will treat the cause of these symptoms and make permanent changes to their overall health. OxygenRemedy.org has decided to answer this need with its all-natural treatment for lupus symptoms.”

Geller explains, ?Our findings, which are backed by years of scientific research, show how people with chronic disease like lupus breathe more than healthy people. The cause for their ongoing illness is their chronic hyperventilation. By breathing too much oxygen, your body becomes unable to transport oxygen to the cells and tissues that need it. When you raise the level of CO2 in your body, you naturally breathe less and your arteries open themselves to get oxygen where it needs to go.?

Geller continues, ?All there is out there today to treat lupus are drugs that target inflammation or suppress the immune system. These drugs have dangerous side effects and don?t provide a lasting solution. What the Oxygen Remedy offers is a natural treatment that makes permanent, positive changes to the symptoms of lupus, based on breathing exercises that lead the patient to gradually raise the oxygen level of their cells and tissues. This counters inflammation and its resulting symptoms, like joint pain, fatigue, skin rashes, and the more serious symptoms that of advanced.?

He says, ?The basis of health is healthy breathing. People with chronic illnesses like lupus breathe two to three times as much as healthy people, and this is why they have chronic inflammation and a lasting autoimmune disorder. The Oxygen Remedy can undo years of overbreathing and reset the body to its healthy breathing state. It has already helped people with grave health problems that nothing else could solve. People searching for long-term relief from their lupus symptoms will be amazed at how their symptoms disappear, without any medications.?

Geller concludes, ?New sections are always added to the site on specific illnesses and health problems, such as cystic fibrosis, anxiety and panic disorders, and weight gain. The Oxygen Remedy therapy offers a permanent solution for people who suffer from serious, long-term diseases, or for those who would like to better their health to have more energy, lose weight, and perform better physically and mentally.?

“OxygenRemedy.org is devoted to educating readers on how they can cure their illnesses without pills or huge changes to their lifestyle, simply by changing their breathing. Proven by a generation of Russian doctors, the therapy is steadily becoming mainstream in the U.S. and elsewhere and consistently more effective than traditional drug treatments. This remedy has already worked with patients with serious illnesses, including cystic fibrosis, asthma, panic disorders, sleep disorders, chronic fatigue, bipolar disorder, epilepsy, and many more. OxygenRemedy.org is proud to make this revolutionary natural cure available to the public.”

Disclaimer: OxygenRemedy.org does not diagnose or treat any disease nor suggest that you cease medical treatment. The ideas here may or may not work for specific individuals. Health can get better or worse with any treatment and decisions as to treatment are best made by the individual who can make those decisions, such as the patient, the health professionals, and/or parents. OxygenRemedy.org does not claim to cure any disease and in many cases lacks enough statistical evidence to make any such claims. Hopefully the ideas and experiences here will help you regain your health, but no assurances are made that this will happen.

ADD-care — A Natural, Homeopathic Alternative Reducing Symptoms Related to Attention Deficit Disorder

July 24, 2012     No comments

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) March 19, 2009

ADD-care provides a natural and homeopathic alternative for reducing the symptoms related to attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) without a prescription and without negative side effects. Findings included in a study of chronic medication use in children ages 5 to 19 released December 2008 in the journal Pediatrics by researchers from the Saint Louis University School of Medicine, pharmacy benefit manager Express Scripts and the Kansas Health Institute concluded that the utilization patterns for ADD and ADHD medication increased 40.4 percent during the four year study period.

“As I watch this percentage climb year after year, it’s no surprise that parents are still reluctant to put their children on medication unless it is absolutely necessary,” said Jef Gazley, M.S., LMFT and developer of ADD-care. “With a strong desire to improve their child’s behavior, focus, learning ability and attention span, most parents turn to Ritalin, Adderall or other synthetic amphetamines unaware that a natural, homeopathic solution exists. ADD-care offers parents the promise of a completely natural supplement that has shown in brain imaging testing to meet or exceed the performance of the usual medications prescribed.”

For years the naturopathic community has claimed to effectively manage the symptoms consistent with ADD without the use of stimulants, but ADD-care is the only product to deliver on this claim. In fact, in SPECT (Single Photon Emission Tomography) scans, administered by the Amen Clinic, show a head-to-head comparison of the brain’s surface with the use of ADD-care and then with 20 mg of amphetamine sulfate, the active ingredients used in the stimulant Adderall. The deep pockets typically visible in the prefrontal cortex area of patients with ADD, depicting decreased blood flow, are smooth and symmetrical with ADD-care indicating improved focus and reduced impulsivity. Overall, ADD-care performed 85-95% as well on the prefrontal cortex, and outperformed Adderall with a 20% improvement on the surface brain imaging scan tests. For the internal brain image testing, ADD-care performed 40-60% better than the traditional ADD/ADHD medications.

“My son Peter has been trying both the ADD-care supplement and Adderall XR (15 mg),” explains a mother of a son who has struggled with ADD for more than 15 years*. “When Peter took the entrance exams for Glendale Community College he was trying both the ADD-care supplement and Adderall XR (15 mg). On Monday, he tested out of reading and scored very high in his writing and math. (Note he took the wrong math test.) He was only four points away from the honors program in writing. On the following Thursday, Peter took the writing test again and the correct math test, this time he was on Adderall. He passed the math test and scored only three points shy of meeting the English honors program. For Peter, this is very good and he stayed focus studying for two days. This would have been unheard of in the past and we attribute his success to ADD-care.”

The advantages of taking ADD-care far outnumber those of its prescription counterparts. Not only is a prescription unnecessary and the cost more affordable for ADD-care, but patients also report no adverse affects on appetite or sleep patterns when taking the natural supplement. “After using both ADD-care and Adderall, I overwhelmingly chose to continue with the ADD-care treatment for my ADD symptoms,” said a patient who has suffered from ADD all her life*. “I found that the prescription drug left me feeling jittery and gave me a slight, but constant headache. With ADD-care, I feel calm, normal, focused and alert. My ADD symptoms are greatly reduced without any negative or addictive side effects.”

About ADD-Care

ADD-care? is a 100% natural supplement developed to combat the negative stigma associated with the diagnosis of attention deficit disorder, helping adults and children find an alternative solution to reduce the symptoms consistent with the disorder, while at the same time avoiding the many adverse side effects associated with the most commonly prescribed stimulants. ADD-care? is made from a proprietary blend of amino acids and a homeopathic agent. ADD-care offers a complete line of natural products for the symptoms consistent with most common mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety.

AquaHab Physical Therapy Case Study Reveals Advantages of Aquatic Therapy for Osteoporosis Symptoms

July 20, 2012     No comments

CHERRY HILL, N.J (PRWEB) June 11, 2012

A new AquaHab Physical Therapy case study illustrates the benefits of aquatic therapy and physical therapy for osteoporosis symptoms, based on patient results documented by the Greater Philadelphia physical therapy practice. These findings validate previous research studies highlighting the advantages of aquatic therapy for patients with osteoporosis.

According to the National Osteoporosis Foundation, osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and structural deterioration of bone tissue, resulting in porous, fragile bones and an increased susceptibility to fractures, especially in the spine, hip, and wrist. Individuals with osteoporosis can suffer broken bones from minor falls, bumping into furniture or even sneezing. In the United States alone, it is estimated that 10 million individuals currently suffer from osteoporosis, while nearly 34 million more people are estimated to have low bone density that puts them at increased risk for the disease.(1)

A number of studies have documented the advantages of aquatic therapy for osteoporosis symptoms. In one clinical trial conducted in Canada, researchers reported, ?Significant improvements in balance and global change suggest that [aquatic exercise] is a viable alternative for older women with [osteoporosis] who have difficulty exercising on land.?(2) Another randomized, controlled trial from Australia found that aquatic therapy ?resulted in less pain and joint stiffness, and greater physical function, quality of life, and muscle strength.(3)

Les Littman, President and CEO of AquaHab, LP, reports that osteoporosis patients at the practice?s clinics have achieved measurable results from a combined aquatic and physical therapy program. He cites a recent case study demonstrating the effectiveness of aquatic therapy for an 80-year-old female patient with osteoporosis, who suffered a right hip fracture as a result of the disease.

The subject of the AquaHab Physical Therapy case study was first diagnosed with osteoporosis in 2006 and had previously tried in-patient and home-based physical therapy treatment. Her complaints included constant back and hip pain that increased with activity, as well as weakness and shortness of breath with any physical exertion. She reported difficulty with walking long distances and standing for extended periods of time, and even found it a struggle to wash dishes at her kitchen sink.

Her treatment plan included skilled aquatic physical therapy three times per week for four weeks, along with land-based physical therapy exercises. The treatments involved a series of exercises performed in a shallow 93 degree pool and an 85 degree deep water pool at the clinic?s aquatic physical therapy center; they included deep-water walking and trunk stabilization exercises for cardiovascular conditioning as well as shallow-water exercises focused on improving the patient?s strength, endurance, flexibility, and range of motion. Her land-based physical therapy encompassed weight-bearing exercises to improve her strength and increase bone-density.

Upon completion of her treatment program, the patient exhibited improved strength, gait pattern, gait tolerance, and standing tolerance. She also reported a decrease in pain intensity and frequency, and demonstrated understanding and independence in her individual exercise program, including treadmill, weight machines, and shallow-water therapeutic exercises. With regard to her initial concerns, the patient noted that after treatment she is now able to wash dishes at the sink without pain or fatigue, as well as walk community distances and stand for more than an hour without fatigue.

?Our experience has shown that an aquatic physical therapy program, in combination with land-based physical therapy, can address many of the symptoms encountered by osteoporosis sufferers,? said Littman. ?Exercising in water is especially beneficial to those with osteoporosis, as it allows them to increase strength and improve balance without the risk of falls or injury that can occur with traditional land-based exercises. Water-based therapy also reduces pain by minimizing weight-bearing forces on bones and joints. A qualified physical therapist can develop a comprehensive treatment program that combines both aquatic and land-based exercises, enabling patients to resume regular activities and exercise once they?ve built up their strength and endurance.?

Littman advises individuals with osteoporosis ? as well as anyone experiencing pain, weakness, fatigue, or balance and coordination issues ? to schedule a physical therapy evaluation to determine the best course of treatment. Those seeking an aquatic physical therapy clinic in Philadelphia or neighboring suburbs will find a full spectrum of rehabilitative services at AquaHab Physical Therapy. New patients may request a free consultation at any of AquaHab?s four clinics, as well as a free tour of the facilities. To schedule a comprehensive screening, prospective patients may submit an information request online or call the nearest clinic: Northeast Philadelphia ? 215-677-0400, ext. 1122; Bala Cynwyd ? 610-664-6464, ext. 1308; Jenkintown ? 215-887-8787, ext. 1418; or Cherry Hill, N.J. ? 856-751-8899, ext. 1225.

New ADD-care? Liquid — A Natural Homeopathic Alternative That Reduces Symptoms Consistent with Attention Deficit Disorder

July 06, 2012     No comments

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) September 24, 2009

ADD-care? is an all natural supplement that has been examined at the prestigious Amen Clinic in head to head comparison studies with a leading stimulant medication. In these studies ADD-care? met or beat the stimulant in many aspects of SPECT brain imaging and in the Conner’s ADD/ADHD impulsivity test. The results of these tests can be found online at http://www.add-care.com. ADD-care? provides a natural and homeopathic alternative for reducing the symptoms related to attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) without a prescription and without negative side effects. Until now ADD-care? has only been available in capsule form which can be difficult for children to take comfortably. ADD-care? proudly announces another product breakthrough! ADD-care? is now available in liquid form which is ideal for children. In fact most of ADD-care?’s mental health natural supplement product line is now available in liquid as well as capsules.

“My daughter Meagan has been trying both the ADD-care? supplement and Adderall XR (15 mg) and her results on her school tests have been great on both, but she feels less jittery on ADD-care? so we stopped the stimulant. The liquid form seems to be effective in 5 minutes which has stopped the early morning fights.” Claudia P

“After using both ADD-care? and Adderall, I overwhelmingly chose to continue with the ADD-care? treatment for my ADD symptoms. I feel the same focus on both, but much calmer on ADD-care?.” Brad M.

“I found that the prescription drug left me feeling nervous and gave me a slight, but constant headache. With ADD-care?, I feel calm, normal, focused and alert. My ADD symptoms are greatly reduced without any negative or addictive side effects.” Kelly T.

Although the amphetamines are usually very effective with many children and adults there are numerous side effects that have been noted. These include nervousness, irritability, difficulty sleeping, lack of appetite, excessive sweating, bad breath, and the fear of addiction. There are over 3 billion of sales a year spent on these stimulants. Parents and educators have long been worried about the abuse potential and have been looking for a viable alternative, but have been universally disappointed in the natural products that have been available.

ADD-care is the only natural alternative supplement that has been studied in direct comparison studies with the stimulants. The results, especially for a natural product, have been outstanding.

The advantages of taking ADD-care? far outnumber those of its prescription counterparts. Not only is a prescription unnecessary and the cost more affordable for ADD-care?, but patients also report no adverse affects on appetite or sleep patterns when taking the natural supplement. Now with the advent of ADD-care liquid younger children can easily obtain the same great benefits of ADD-care capsules.

In the words of one of the clients in the ADD study, “I find this to be a much better alternative to Adderall as I exhibit symptoms of allergic reactions, dry mouth, nausea, decreased appetite, dehydration, anxiety, jitters, crankiness and rebound forgetfulness when I take Adderall. When I went to the Amen clinic to do my scans I had an evaluation at the end with Dr. Todd Clements, M.D. who is one of the psychiatrists at the clinic. He said “your prefrontal cortex looked the best on the ADD-care? scan and from our discussion it seems like the ADD-care? is working very well for you.” Stephanie P

About ADD-Care? Liquid

Sales Booming for Natural Supplement that Treats Symptoms of ADD

June 23, 2012     No comments

Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) March 6, 2010

With sales up 153% over last year, the natural supplement ADD-care? has demonstrated the ability to help treat symptoms consistent with Attention Deficit Disorder.

The standard and until now most effective treatment for Attention Deficit Disorder is the use of amphetamines and stimulants. These include Ritalin, Adderall, Dexedrine, and the relatively unknown medication Provigil. This is due to the stimulating effect of these drugs on the central nervous system, prefrontal cortex, and hypothalamus which raises dopamine levels in the brain and increases alertness.?

However, Jef Gazley, M.S., is taking an alternative approach. He has developed a product called ADD-care?, which is a completely natural supplement consisting of various amino acids and a homeopathic agent that, according to both client testimonials and SPECT scans, rivals the stimulants with virtually no side effects.

?We are excited about the ability of ADD-care? to address the symptoms consistent with ADHD. It is opening a whole new approach for those wishing to avoid traditional drug-based approaches,? according to Gazley. ?We are seeking to avoid the common side-effects of drugs, which include over-stimulation, excessive sweating, bad breath, intense irritability, more confusion and less focus, anxiety, obsessions, compulsions, oppositional behavior, and an addictive potential for people without ADD.?

ADD-care? has been shown, by SPECT scans to add blood flow and electrical activity to the prefrontal cortex of the brain which increases focusing and is the part of the brain that is positively affected by the stimulants such as Ritalin. ADD-care? also has been shown to raise Dopamine, Acetylcholine, GABA, and Serotonin. It is the ability to boost and balance these neurotransmitters that make ADD-care? so effective.

The Attention Deficit Disorder Association says the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may include:

????Inattention, which is having a short attention span and being easily distracted.
????Impulsivity, which can cause a person to do inappropriate things without thinking about the consequences.
????Hyperactivity, which is inappropriate or excessive activity.
These symptoms affect people in all age groups who have ADHD. But typical behavior varies by age.

Jef Gazley, M.S. of Phoenix, Arizona developed ADD-care?. It is available online at http://www.ADD-care.com .

Dr Greg Schreeuwer DC, Teaches a Revolutionary New Method to Create Personal Balance in the Body by Transforming Signs, Symptoms and Illness into Health and Purpose

June 22, 2012     No comments


Sydney, NSW (PRWEB) August 23, 2011

People in Australia are very quick to invest time, money and energy into drugs, supplements and various healthcare practitioners to achieve the results that they want. Dr Greg Schreeuwer DC, through Parallel Practise, has achieved a revolutionary new healing method that he states is “giving people the opportunity to overcome various health concerns by learning how to understand the unique language of the human body.” He has been applying this method with his clients in Sydney, Australia and is slowly transforming the current healthcare models that are available to consumers. No matter what your presentation is, Dr Schreeuwer believes everybody has the ability to heal themselves and he is teaching people this unique method that gives people “the opportunity to create personal balance in their lives.”

Dr Greg Schreeuwer DC practised as a chiropractor for 4.5 years. He is now a non-practicing chiropractor and has dedicated his life to transforming the current medical model by developing a new and revolutionary approach to global healthcare. Using his knowledge from areas such as Chinese Medicine, Metaphysics, Quantum Theory, Kinesiology principles, Craniopathy and his understanding of human physiology and human behaviour, he is helping clients to transform various signs, symptoms and diseases into a life full of purpose and potential. What would normally take days, weeks, months, if not years, to overcome, he states, is now taking anywhere between 1-10 sessions to completely resolve. Dr Schreeuwer adds: “the clients require no supplementation or extra care and they are transforming into self-sufficient, self-reliant individuals, independent of the current healthcare options.”

Dr Schreeuwer further states: “the human body is a resourceful and powerful machine that is capable of doing so much more than we could ever realise.” He adds: “Imagine, for a moment, that there are people out in society suffering with something that is disabling them and preventing them from living their lives. What price would they pay to overcome it and be free to live their lives?” Dr Schreeuwer reveals that most people, right now, are spending 1000′s, if not 10′s of 1000′s of dollars on healthcare alternatives to alleviate all their crippling ailments. He says that people have become dependant and reliant on various healthcare models, whether they be traditional or complimentary, and have given up having any control over their own bodies. The supplement or the drug is the cure. The doctor or healthcare specialist has all the answers. He believes that those alternatives are useful but he also maintains that people, globally have stopped relying and depending on themselves for the answers that lie within them.

His own frustrations with this dilemma, while working as a chiropractor, lead him to uncover something truly incredible with long term savings for most, if not all, people with a health issue.

Dr Schreeuwer has already been interviewed for a local publication about a successful recovery of a client with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. He has also been approached to be a part of an educational series aiming to bring women into leadership while finding a healthy balance in all areas of their lives. While working as a chiropractor, he delivered a presentation on a unique cranial technique, called Neurocranial Restructuring, at the well known Anti-Ageing Seminar.

Education and inspiration are unique and fundamentally important aspects of what Dr Schreeuwer offers through his services. He is available to do one on one consults, group consults, company consults and educational workshops to teach people how to become self-healing, confident and self-empowered people.

Consultations or workshops can be booked directly through the website provided or through his contact information.

Studies Show Groundbreaking 22% Reduction in Depression Symptoms in 4 Hours

June 22, 2012     No comments


Henderson, NV (PRWEB) June 15, 2009

Mental disorders are the leading cause of disability in the US and Canada for ages 15-44, according to NIMH. These statistics have caused a mounting demand to end the reliance on extensive and unreliable therapy or risky medications which have yet to prove effective. One company has announced an answer to this demand and is showing the numbers to prove it.

The answer from this company is a revolutionary treatment in mental health called Subconscious Restructuring, or SR. It is authored by Kelly Burris, PhD through 25 years of research and development and refinement. The recent studies, conducted by a growing team of “Master SR Coaches,” show the process having widespread and consistently dramatic results on depression symptoms. One such study, conducted by Master SR Coach Dr. Ron Clark, has delivered an average 22% reduction in depression symptoms in just 4 hours. While another study, conducted by Master SR Coach Dr. Janis Smith accomplished an average 68% reduction in depression symptoms over a five week period. Dr Burris’s company, THE Burris Life Coach is challenging these numbers against results shown by medications and traditional therapy.

According to statistics published in the Journal of Affective Disorders, prescription drugs used to treat depression achieve relief of symptoms better than a sugar pill (placebo) in only 7% of patients treated and offer no clinically significant benefit over placebos for patients with moderate or severe depression. “In contrast, the SR process produces positive, measurable results with every single patient and client.”

The published medication statistics go on to state double blind placebo controlled studies uniformly reveal that in treating with a prescription drug for depression the odds of developing a drug side effect are higher than getting relief of symptoms. “This absolutely must change,” states Dr. Burris. “Our studies have shown the vast majority of depression cases are a software problem (subconscious mind), not a hardware problem (brain).” Our goal is to remove unnecessary risks for those seeking mental health treatments. We are sending the message to clients and patients that they can demand real, risk free and measurable results from mental health treatments.

In response to comparisons to CBT, Dr. Burris says “It does not in any way reflect CBT and the difference is in the data. We prove what we claim to produce, and these are not observational studies.” All SR studies involve three time-proven instruments with hard data generated for each study. The primary instrument is an emotional checklist which measures changes in what is considered the most significant human emotional issues.

The SR process recognizes depression as the single common denominator in virtually every behavior disorder. This includes but is not limited to obesity, anorexia, bulimia, ADD, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, anxiety and alcohol and drug addiction. There are eighteen components when measuring depression with fear, guilt and anger recognized as the most significant. “All human behavior is emotionally driven and one cannot take control of a destructive emotional state unless one understands how an emotion comes about from the deepest level of the subconscious. This is why SR is effective with the complete range of human emotion and behavior,” states Dr. Burris.

In Their Prime, Women Face Far Greater Stroke Threat Than Men: Leading Neurologist & Stroke Specialist Discusses Unique Risk Factors, Symptoms and Prevention

June 15, 2012     No comments

Brooklyn, NY (PRWEB) May 11, 2007

Despite its standing as the third leading cause of death and the number-one cause of disability in the U.S., stroke is often a misunderstood condition – particularly among women. While it is true that men outnumber women among stroke patients over the age of 65, a new study reported at the American Stroke Association’s International Stroke Conference 2007 found that women between the ages of 45 and 54 are up to 2.5 times more likely to have a stroke than men in the same age group. In fact, due to differences in risk factors, symptoms and response rates to treatment, the American Stroke Association reports that in the general population nearly 50,000 more women than men in the U.S. suffer a stroke each year, and over 30,000 more women than men die as a result of their stroke.

“Women – particularly younger women – have distinct risk factors that put them in greater danger of a stroke,” explains Dr. Susanna Horvath, M.D., a neurologist and stroke specialist at New York Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn, NY. “Sadly, women in the ‘prime of life’ age group (35-65 year-old) – which accounts for a quarter of all stroke victims each year – are largely unaware of the unique risks, symptoms and prevention strategies they need to know in order to protect themselves from stroke,” Dr. Horvath adds.

Stroke has reached epidemic status in the U.S.; according to the CDC, 700,000 Americans suffer a stroke each year, and approximately 150,000 Americans die each year due to stroke – making stroke the third leading cause of death in this country. It is also the leading cause of disability in the U.S., costing the healthcare system more than $ 63 billion annually, according to the American Stroke Association.

Roughly 80% of all strokes are ischemic, caused by clogging of one or more arteries by plaque or by a blood clot, preventing blood flow to the brain. For women at risk, Dr. Horvath says, education and awareness is key. “There are three critical things women need to know in order to prevent, recognize, and ultimately survive an ischemic stroke,” she notes.

1. The risks are higher, but manageable

Dr. Horvath believes that, while the results of the new study were surprising, they are understandable. “Women in their late 30s and 40s are experiencing pregnancies at a greater rate than ever, or are frequently taking birth control pills, while women in their 50s and early 60s sometimes are beginning hormone replacement therapy (HRT) – all of which increase the risk of stroke,” Dr, Horvath notes. “More importantly, women in these age groups need to watch for the development of high blood pressure and diabetes, the two highest risk factors for stroke,” Dr. Horvath adds. “Even physiology, which dictates a larger waist-hip ratio (WHR) for women than men, puts us at greater risk, as studies have linked increases in tummy fat with elevated risk of stroke,” Dr. Horvath points out.

The key to prevention, Dr. Horvath explains, is education. “Women need first to understand that stroke is a serious threat, and then to educate themselves about their own personal risks.” When an assessment of basic factors like weight, high blood pressure and/or cholesterol, WHR, smoking, pregnancy and hormone use reveals a high risk, Dr. Horvath recommends a visit to a medical doctor or specialist to discuss stroke prevention. “Patients need to know that the four key factors to preventing stroke are controlling blood pressure, cholesterol levels and blood sugar, and avoiding smoking,” she concludes. “It is important for women at risk to seek out and take advantage of the resources available to them in order to achieve these preventive measures.”

“Here at New York Methodist Hospital, we have been designated as a Stroke Center by the New York State Department of Health, which means a great deal to women at high risk of stroke,” Dr. Horvath explains, adding, “For example, we have a team of neurologists and other specialists on-call 24 hours a day, providing a full spectrum of preventive and treatment services for stroke.”

Individuals with symptoms may be referred for testing to determine whether there are blockages of the carotid arteries, the neck arteries that carry blood to the brain. New York Methodist Hospital’s Vascular Laboratory is fully equipped to provide these non-invasive studies. Advances in surgery and neuroradiology now offer highly effective treatments for narrowed carotid arteries that significantly reduce the risk of a stroke.

2. Know the Signs

Recognizing the signs of stroke is crucial for a positive outcome. Classic symptoms of stroke include numbness, tingling, loss of speech and partial paralysis. However, according to another study reported at this year’s Stroke Conference, women are 33% less likely to report one of these symptoms than their male counterparts. Instead, more women report such symptoms as fainting, shortness of breath, dizziness and sudden pain right before having a stroke. “It is critical for women to recognize that our stroke signs may differ from men’s, and to seek medical attention immediately – even if the symptoms don’t fully mesh with the usual signs of a stroke,” Dr. Horvath cautions. “Many patients – women and men alike – spend precious time ‘waiting out’ the signs of a stroke at home, thinking the symptoms may pass, but this can mean the difference between receiving lifesaving treatment or not,” she adds.

Once patients get to the Emergency Room, Dr. Horvath encourages them to communicate if possible their belief, based on risk factors and/or symptoms, that they may be having a stroke to the Emergency Room staff immediately upon arrival in order to maximize their chances of receiving the only drug approved by the FDA to treat and reverse the effects of a stroke in its earliest stages.

3. Get The Treatment Fast

“Time is brain,” says the American Stroke Association, based on the fact that the best chance for a stroke victim’s recovery lies within the first three hours of the onset of symptoms. It’s only during this timeframe that the clot-busting drug tPA – tissue plasminogen activator – can be administered safely before the risk of bleeding in the brain becomes too high. What’s more, the closer the patient is to the three-hour time limit, the less effective tPA will be. Although there are other treatment options once the three-hour window has closed, they are more invasive than tPA. “TPA dissolves a clot and restores blood flow to the brain, increasing the patient’s chances of survival, recovery and functional independence following a stroke,” Dr. Horvath notes. “Yet its limitations prevent it from helping all stroke victims, and so the research community is hard at work seeking out new therapies for stroke patients,” she concludes.
