The array of complications are a result from plaque build up in the arteries from saturated fats and no exercise to eliminate unused fats, or blood clot formations from damaged or blocked arteries or vessels (What is Cardiovascular Disease?" 2014). It is one of the leading causes of death for adults, but for Hispanic women it…

Nelson implemented different potential benefits that were also interested to his studies. Despite, Ms. Smith being elderly, African American woman. Dr. Nelson discovered that, similar areas of cardiovascular health disparities, elderly, minorities, and women are often underserved when it comes to cardiac rehabilitation. Although, the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation for patients are participated through elderly people. This created a 5- year cumulative…

many studies that indicated what exercising could do for the human body. For example, according to Male Appleby she states that exercising could benefit us in twenty-five different ways. Appleby writes, “How exercise will benefit the heart, our cardiovascular health would improve, we would look younger, live a longer life, and lastly we would just look great.” (Bodybuilding.com) these are just some of the…

forming plaques; therefore, increasing risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). By lowering the consumption of SFA, it decreases one’s risk of a cardiac event by decreasing plaque formation. One method of lowering SFA is by substituting foods high in SFA with foods containing other macronutrients while possibly gain additional benefits (such as lowering body weight, reducing oxidative stress, or inducing favorable lipid…

Heart Failure in Older Adults Heart failure (HF) is a preventable, complex, and progressive disease that affects most older adults. The enormous personal and national financial burden of HF is astounding. HF has become a global epidemic affecting over 23 million people worldwide with economic burden estimated at more than $108 billion per year (Dickson et al., 2014). This condition is predominant in adults older than 65, and is a chronic and progressive syndrome often associated with the…
