Capewell, S., Ford, E. S., Croft, J. B., Critchley, J. A., Greenlund, K. J., & Labarthe, D. R. (2010). Cardiovascular risk factor trends and options for reducing future coronary heart disease mortality in the United States of America. Bulletin of the World Health Organization, 88(2), 120-130. doi:10.2471/blt.08.057885
As stated in the article Cardiovascular risk factor trends and potential for reducing coronary heart disease mortality in the United States of America, with coronary heart disease being accountable for over $150,000 billion annually in health care and responsible for an estimated 500,000 deaths in the United States in 2004, the authors assess the possible ways in which to reduce the risk factors associated …show more content…

The article Diet, Nutrition, and Prostate summarizes the effects that diet, nutrition, genetics, and the environment can potentially have on prostate cancer, which is one of the most prevalent causes of cancer deaths. Additionally, with prostate cancer being slow to progress and also slow to diagnose, researchers hope to correlate links between these risk factors such as caloric intake, physical activity, dietary fats, family history, occupational exposure, and demographic factors to prostate cancer in order to prevent and curtail the increase in mortalities due to this disease.
Even though the evidence from this article is relatively inconclusive resulting from lack of studies on prostate cancer, this article uncovers links such as excess energy intake, excess body fat, and poor nutritional habits that can be linked to the development of prostate cancer. Also, with more information emerging on genetics, more research is needed to see if certain genetic and environmental factors may increase the risk of this type of …show more content…
The information provided was presented in a scholarly manner with scientific research to back up their findings. However, the authors find the challenge that still exists to be linking evidence of certain diets that may help in the prevention of this disease. This is due to the difficulty of isolating factors within foods and a person’s food consumption. Although hard evidence is not at present tangible, researchers still believe there is enough evidence to suggest the benefits of following a proper
