This book is principally about your heart: how to keep it strong or, if
it has been weakened in some way, how to make it as strong as
possible. The major cause of weakening of your heart is called
coronary artery disease (CAD). The coronary arteries are those
arteries which feed the heart itself. They arise from the main artery
leaving the heart, the aorta, and run around the outside of the heart,
sending many branches into the heart’s muscle. They deliver oxygen
and energy so that the heart can do its job of pumping blood around
the body. If the coronary arteries become narrowed, the blood supply
to the heart will be restricted. The result is that when the heart needs
to beat faster (such as when you are walking up a hill), your heart will
be starved of energy and begin to complain, usually by causing chest
pain (known as angina). If a coronary artery blocks completely, there
will a sudden loss of blood to a portion of heart muscle, chemicals
build up, you will experience severe pain and a heart attack occurs as
part of the muscle stops working. If a big coronary artery blocks, the
heart attack will be large; if a small artery is blocked, there will only
be a small loss of muscle.
Coronary disease is our greatest medical enemy and as much a
threat to women as to men. Women may think of it as a man’s disease,
but it is an equal opportunity killer with no respect for sex, race or
religion. Coronary heart disease kills nearly 117 000 men and women
in the UK each year, and in America 450 000 adults die each year of
coronary artery disease; over one-third of these are women. This
means that an average of 320 people a day (or one person every fourand-
a half minutes) die from coronary artery disease in the UK.
Women may be more afraid of breast cancer but it is more than five
times as likely that they will die from the consequences of heart
disease. It is so common that one in three adults of both sexes over 65
years of age has some form of heart disease.
