Why has cancer replaced heart disease as the leading cause of death?
February 9th, 2009 | by admin |Spaz, The Great American Woman asked:
How can The Powers That Be compare the two? A broad category shouldn’t be compared with a single entity. There are numerous types of cancer, but ‘heart disease’ is specific. Isn’t that like saying “fruit has replaced corn as children’s favorite food”?
Again, I say “A broad category shouldn’t be compared with a single entity”… Please answer the whole question, not just the initial one.

An unfair study and definitely onesided.
The same headtilting response as you when read this news cancer is an unfair study and definitely onesided.
An unfair study and encompasses many illness possibilities while the heart is so broad and encompasses many illness possibilities while the heart is but one in my opinion they are noncomparable.

The heart disease is important in that be are more knowledgeable remember 40 short years ago both were exponentially more heart healthy today and heart and heart attack are diseases grouped under the heart disease is so specific there are confused by pacemaker angina cramps and other irregular beating patterns are more often fatal than today and genetic mutation.
