Congestive Heart Failure:

Here are some sobering statistics about Congestive Heart Failure:

• Once a diagnosis of CHF is made, one out of every five CHF patients has only a year more to live;
• 50 percent of newly diagnosed CHF patients have only five more years.
• CHF is almost as bad as a cancer diagnosis.
• There are many underlying reasons for a failing heart.
•  There are treatment options beyond pharmaceutical drugs.
• In addition to one’s genetic predisposition, there are several reversible health conditions that can also cause CHF:

1. Long-term high blood pressure: Pressure against the heart wears it out.
2. Previous heart attack: The dead portion of the heart muscle never recovers.
3. Arrhythmia: Electrical abnormalities weaken heart muscle or cause heart attack.
4. Heart valve disorders: The backflow of blood wears out the heart muscle.
5. Cardiomyopathy: Diseased heart muscle cannot pump blood.
6. Chronic lung disease: Back-pressure increases stress on the right heart chamber.
7. Anemia: Heart must pump faster due to fewer red blood cells to carry oxygen.
8. Diabetes: Vessel disease develops due to long-standing high-blood-sugar levels.
9. Obesity: CHF is significantly more prevalent in obese patients.
10. Obstructive sleep apnea: Increases blood pressure in the heart.
11. Autoimmune inflammation: Rheumatoid arthritis doubles risk for CHF,
12. Hyperthyroidism: Increases heart rate and energy demand on the heart.
13. Chemotherapy drugs: Increases CHF risk,
14. Alcohol abuse: Leads to thiamine (Vitamin B1) deficiency; one-third of hospitalized congestive heart failure patients were found to be low in thiamine.
15. Amphetamines or cocaine use: Creates a huge metabolic demand on the heart.
16. Lifestyle contributors such as smoking, lack of exercise, excessive salt intake and emotional distress: Weakens a heart predisposed to CHF.
