Men Have More Heart Disease and Diabetes Risk

Men have some more potential risks of suffering from some diseases than women. And among the diseases, dangerous heart disease and diabetes are common. NDTV reported this. A study has confirmed this recently. Researchers have informed, along with diabetes and heart disease, men have more death risk in taking excessive medicine and alcohol. And for this reason, men have higher death rate than women. 

The lead author of the study Mikel Eisenberg, a researcher from Stanford University School of Medicine said, ‘Adult men do not go to doctor unless they face serious health problem. Rather they buy and take medicine according to their own choice.’

Eisenberg also said, ‘Most of the time, these kinds of people are to visit doctors during child birth process. And this is a chance of engaging them to healthcare system.’

The researchers conducted studies from 2001 to 2009 on 115,000 men who had problems in giving birth to children. In the study, their health was compared with common men. From the study it was known, the men under study had heart disease and diabetes risks along with negligence in treatment, obesity, smoking and health problems. Eisenberg said that these kinds of men were over 30 years of age. The Fertility and Sterility Journal published the study results.

Diabetes and heart disease that cause long time sufferings and death risks in adult men and women are common in the world. The number of diabetes patients are increasing alarmingly all around the world. The scenery is the same for heart disease. Diabetes does harm to almost all systems (organs) of the body. In chronic diabetes, our eyes, kidneys, heart, nervous system, skin, joints, reproductive system and almost all other organs will lose their effectiveness. Among these, heart disease is dangerous and widespread. Diabetes patients become victim to heart disease more and severely.
