ATLANTA - You can add Canadians to the list of foreigners who are healthier than Americans. Americans are 42 percent more likely than Canadians to have diabetes, 32 percent more likely to have high blood pressure, and 12 percent more likely to have arthritis, Harvard Medical School researchers found. That is according to a survey in which American and Canadian adults were asked over the telephone about their health.
The new study found that 6.7 percent of Americans and 4.7 percent of Canadians reported having diabetes; 18.3 percent and 13.9 percent, respectively, reported having high blood pressure; and 17.9 percent and 16.0 percent said they had arthritis. The Americans also reported more heart disease and major depression, but those differences were too small to be statistically significant.
Who needs health? People who long for prolonging their lives could feel hopeful to achieve this goal. The progress on science of disease discovering and curing provides a great number of chances for devastated patience. The profound technology provides on surgery and medication save people out of painful suffering and death. We do need help to maintain our body in a well condition since we are afraid of serious torture that disease could give us. There is no way you can avoid having your eyes on it either you pay all attention on or spend all your money. Just face it, and gain power from God and fight for your own good.
