The Top Health Concerns For Women, and Their Natural Treatment and Prevention

There are wide differences in health between the developed countries, and underdeveloped or developing countries. This Women's Natural Health web site focuses on the developed world, particularly the US and Europe. The good news for American women is that the chronic diseases, most likely to lead to death in the US, are to a large extent preventable. They are diseases of the modern world, lifestyle diseases whose risks can be lowered by women paying attention to their underlying causes. In other words, the main killer diseases for women in the US are susceptible to natural prevention and treatment.

So, what are the top killer diseases amongst women in the US? The number one cause of women's deaths in the US is heart disease, surpassing the number of women who die from all forms of cancer combined. This may surprise some, who associate heart disease with men. However, more women than men die from heart disease each year, so any sense of complacency by women over their cardiovascular health is misplaced.

When it comes to female deaths due to cancer, the types of cancer most likely to have caused their mortality, according to the American Cancer Society, are firstly lung cancer, secondly breast cancer and thirdly colorectal cancer. After cancer, the biggest killer of women is stroke, which kills more women than men every year in the US.

Those, though, are the leading chronic illness causes of death, but when it comes to women's health concerns, there is a far more wide ranging list. What plays on women's minds the most can be very different to the death statistics.

Enough said about death and statistics. This web site is primarily about natural preventions and treatment, for these days many who think seriously about their health are seeking a natural way to prevent health problems and to overcome them. Apart from the heart and cancer risks, many women also have specific concerns about menopause, aging and skin health, pregnancy and giving birth, aspects of health not applicable to men, except perhaps when it comes to the visible affects of aging.

Natural prevention and treatments can involve the use of herbal supplements, diet, exercise and naturopathic therapies; all can play a part in a woman's better health regime. For those who prefer not to use prescription drugs, unless there really is no choice, such alternative therapies are now the first option for millions, particularly those who, like me, have been harmed in the past by drugs prescribed by so called "conventional doctors".
