Blood Donor lower risk of heart attack and cancer - Recent studies have shown that donating blood may reduce the risk of heart attacks and cancer. This is thought to occur due to decreased levels of high iron in the body.
Iron levels in the body can affect how thick and sticky texture of the blood. High iron content which causes the blood becomes very thick. And increased levels of iron in the body can also speed up the process of oxidation of cholesterol.
This condition can affect the consistency of the blood and creates an increase in friction on the way through the blood vessels. Because this increases the wear and tear in the lining of an artery, it can contribute to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
According to a study published by the Journal of the American Medical Association, researchers found that those aged 43 to 61 years who donate blood every six months, lower risk of heart disease.

Air Pollution Trigger Heart Attack
Air Pollution Trigger Heart Attack | Jam in the street not also give up stress but also have dangerous for heart. accord to research, Inhale the smoke that contain pollutant in along time can trigger the heart attack.
In research that publish in British Medical Journal, the expert found the explanation of pollutant particle and nitrogen dioxide that out from vehicle smoke, and this really dangerous for heart, in spite of the risk is small, only 1,3 percent.
Nevertheless, exposure to the two-particle in a long time into the lungs can trigger heart attacks, about six hours after a person is inhaling pollutants. The experts call this condition as an effect of "harvesting" of pollution.
Krishnan Bhaskaran and his team from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine tested on 79 288 cases of heart attacks that occurred in the 15 suburban England and Wales between 2003-2006. Then the researchers measured the amount of pollution in the area at the time the patient had a heart attack. The data used are from the UK National Air Quality Archive.
The researchers also measured levels of carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide and ozone, as well as other pollutant particles called PM10 and nitrogen dioxide.
"We expect was the level of pollutants in the environment PM10 and NO2 is high enough, can trigger a heart attack six hours later," the researchers said.
Professor Jeremy Pearson of the British Heart Foundation explains, can cause air pollution thickens the blood making it easier to congestion and high risk of heart attack.
"My advice to patients already diagnosed with heart disease should avoid being outside the polluted air in a long time," he said.
British study also concluded that air pollution causes 29 000 premature deaths each year.

Many factors can cause the deadly attack. In addition to its lifestyle and food, according to some studies, grief or trauma is an indication that may exacerbate the risk of heart attack.
A U.S. study of nearly 2,000 heart attack survivors found an increased risk of heart attack within the first week after the loss of someone significant, ranging from one per 320 persons at high risk to one per 1394 people with a low risk of heart attack.
Experts believe that stress caused by the loss of immediate health effects, while the loss of sleep and appetite may suppress the immune system of people who loved life, which can aggravate existing medical conditions underlying.
Emotional strain also caused some bereaved partners to take their own lives, while others ignore their health and diet because of the pain their loss.
Dr. Murray Mittleman, a preventive cardiologist and epidemiologist at Harvard Medical School Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and School of Public Health epidemiology department, in Boston.
"Caregivers, health care providers, and the bereaved themselves need to recognize they are in a period of high risk in the days and weeks after hearing someone close to dying."
Meanwhile, the lead researcher Elizabeth Mostofsky explained about the stress caused by the sense of loss triggers a higher heart rate, thus triggering the pressure and increased blood clotting.
"Friends and family mourn those who have to provide close support to help prevent such incidents, especially near the beginning of the grieving process," said Mostofsky.
According Mostofsky, during situations of extreme sadness and psychological distress, you still need to take care of yourself and seek medical attention for symptoms associated with heart attacks.
The study, also published in Circulation: Journal of the American Hearth Association, said that stress-induced cardiomyopathy, which is due to circumstances triggered by an acute emotional or physical trauma and releases adrenaline wave that controls the heart, such as sadness, anxiety, and anger, also be the cause of the increased risk a heart attack.
