Women are protected from having heart problems early in life..
Because of natural reproductive hormones..
Like Estrogen and Progesterone..
These tends to protect them from heart related diseases..
That is until menopause..
Then they lose the protection of these hormones..
And become susceptible to heart diseases just like males..
By then many men done already die,from the effects of years of heart damages..

Google life expectancy of the African male . You'll be surprised at the reasons behind the low life span of males, especially Nigerian men.

Since all of their problems that can lead to hearts attacks are completely hung on man's shoulders.


Can't you see woman blames man's, even for her own mistake ?

It's because their thinking is one way. They don't have a second thought on things. They can say NO and regret later and come back to say YES but men will think from all angles before making decision. This act of men is what make them exposed to heart attack.

Why is heart disease a male problem?
Although the mortality rate for cardiovascular events or conditions has dropped significantly in the past 20 years, heart disease is still the first cause of death in men in the UK.

Overall, men are more likely than women to develop heart disease, and in the UK, 1 in 7 men and 1 in 11 women will die from disease of the heart arteries.

Various reasons are thought to be the causes of increased Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) numbers in men.

Men tend to have more challenging jobs and cope with stress differently compared to women. They tend to pay less attention to follow a healthy diet, smoke more, take more alcohol and be more overweight than women, and could be less aware of their own symptoms and wellbeing.

Medical risk factors
There are four main risk factors that can expose you to higher chances of having strokes and other cardiac events:

High blood pressure
This is the leading risk factor for heart and circulatory disease in the UK. Around 28% of UK adults have it, and around 50% of heart attacks and strokes are associated with high blood pressure. Importantly, up to 5 million adults in the UK are thought to be undiagnosed.

Diabetes
This is a common condition that increases the risks for cardiovascular conditions. Diabetes results in damage to the inner linings of blood vessels and adults with diabetes are 2-3 times more likely to develop cardiovascular disease, and nearly twice as likely to die from heart attack or stroke than those without diabetes. Over half a million adults in the UK are thought to suffer from undiagnosed diabetes.

High cholesterol
Cholesterol is a lipid, a fatty substance that is present in your blood vessels. There are two types of cholesterol, LDL and HDL. High LDL levels can be dangerous because cholesterol deposits in your arteries. “Bad cholesterol” represents a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease and almost half of UK adults are thought to be living with cholesterol levels above the national guidelines total cholesterol (5mmmo/L).

Lifestyle risk factors
Modifiable risk factors such as cigarette smoking, physical inactivity and poor diet contribute significantly to the risk of cardiovascular disease. At least one in seven adults smoke cigarettes, and up to 20.000 deaths from cardiovascular causes in the UK can be attributed to smoking. Similarly, increasing physical activity is felt to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease by as much as 35%. More than one third of UK adults do not achieve recommended levels of physical activity (150 minutes each week), and only around one quarter consume the recommended minimum five portions of fruit and vegetables per day.

How to reduce lifestyle-related risks for heart disease
Addressing lifestyle factors is the most important, yet often most difficult, step.

To protect your heart health, you can start by introducing these small changes in your life:

Seek help with smoking cessation
Adopt diets low in saturated fats and avoiding highly-processed food
Increase your physical exercise
Lose weight
Taking these steps can have a hugely beneficial impact on some of the medical risk factors discussed earlier. Weight loss, smoking cessation and favourable diets all have a positive effect on blood pressure, cholesterol levels and also blood sugar levels.

CVD may not manifest until very late in its course. It is important not to ignore symptoms of chest pain and worsening breathlessness (especially on effort). Ultimately, the focus should be on preventing problems and addressing risk factors.

Very simply question with equally very simple answer..

Ans : Women do not have stress retaining gland or store all they have is a temporary stress store which can be likened to a computer RAM so all women do is transfer their stresses which is a key factor in heart attack to men, who now have to contend with their own stress and the one transferred to them by women.... when the combined stress effect gets to a particular threshold, the resultant effect is heart attack. kiss
