 Heart Disease

Who Would Benefit from CHIP?

CHIP is an outstanding educational experience for anyone who HAS, or who wants to AVOID such diseases as:

  • Coronary Vascular Disease
    • Atherosclerosis -- Atherosclerosis comes from the Greek words athero (meaning gruel or paste) and sclerosis (hardness). It involves deposits of fatty substances, cholesterol, cellular waste products, calcium and other substances in the inner lining of an artery. This build-up is called plaque and it usually affects large and medium-sized arteries. This buildup reduces blood flow, leading to heart disease.
    • Heart Disease and the associated Angina -- Angina is a symptom of heart disease
    • Heart Attack -- North America’s #1 Killer
    • Stroke -- often MORE debilitating than a heart attack!
    • Peripheral Vascular Disease -- can lead to gangrene and limb amputation
  • Certain Adult Cancers -- 2nd leading cause of death in Canada
  • Diabetes (Type II or “Adult Onset” diabetes)
  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure)
  • Osteoporosis -- the debilitating disease of the bones
  • High Cholesterol -- primary cause of plaque buildup in arteries
  • OsteoArthritis
  • Obesity -- a major RISK indicator for heart disease and diabetes
  • Impotence in Men -- the SILENT curse for many men
  • Gout -- can be painful & disfiguring
  • GI Diseases and complaints
    • Heart Burn
    • Diverticular Disease
    • Gall bladder Disease
    • Constipation
  • Migraines and Other Aches & Pains -- often food-allergy related

Leading Causes of Death in Canada:

*according to Health Canada

Depending on who you ask..the diseases that we call “Lifestyle Diseases” cause between 55%-65% of all deaths in Canada!!

AND… most of those can be prevented with some simple and inexpensive lifestyle changes.


Note: CHIP cannot guarantee that you will never have these problems, but going through the program will teach you how to take control of your health and lower your risk of these diseases. See the RESULTS of a recent CHIP program.

 

Remember: "You could break a lot of hearts if you don't think about yours."
