On average, women develop heart disease about a decade later due to the protective effects of the female hormone estrogen. Heart attack symptoms are often less vague and specific in women, often including shortness of breath, nausea, jaw, neck or back pain, and fatigue rather than classic chest pain. The traditional risk factors for heart disease are generally the same for both genders: family history, smoking, diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes or metabolic syndrome. “Ironically, however, women have a higher mortality from heart disease than men due to both underdiagnosis and undertreatment,” Poulina Uddin, MD, a cardiologist at the Scripps Women’s Heart Center in San Diego. ” Readers Digest ]]> 2018-11-27 10:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_way/HSC111sexgender/wish/308192997 https://padlet.com/laura_way/HSC111sexgender/wish/308193000 Males are also more at risk for the following:]]> 2018-11-27 10:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_way/HSC111sexgender/wish/308193000 https://padlet.com/laura_way/HSC111sexgender/wish/308193109 Boys and girls need the same amount of nutrients growing up, however boys are more likely to receive bigger portions of food with more nutrients in comparison to girls as boys will become the breadwinner's of the family.
