There are many risk factors for coronary artery disease and it is important to know and understand them in order to prevent cardiovascular morbidities and mortality. Risk factors might be:

• Conventional (non-modifiable) such as age, family history of early heart disease, race

• Modifiable (patient can modify them) such as high blood cholesterol levels, obesity (weight), smoking, lack of physical activity, stress and depression…

1. Stop smoking because smoking is a cardiovascular risk factor.  This damages the coronary arteries.

2. Adopt a diet and diet with physical activity, to lose weight and lower his BMI 25 or less (ie its weight must be 83 kg or less). Its LDL-cholesterol should be kept below 1.6 g / l.

Age and family history are also risk factors but can not be changed.

How is protein used by the body? Select all the possible metabolic fates of protein from the options below.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

1. Synthesis and repair of muscle tissue

2. Production of ATP

3. Synthesis of glucose

Explanation:

Proteins are primarily used for tissue repairs and synthesis. They are polymers of amino acids used to make hormones, enzymes and other chemicals of the body. Therefore proteins are only reserved for synthesis and repairs of tissues.

During extreme starvation periods when then is no source of carbohydrates and adipose tissues has been depleted/used up, proteins are alternatively used as source of energy in form of amino acids that enters the liver. Tissues such as muscles are protein degraded to provide the brain with energy in form of ketone bodies and glucose, thus the weight loss in people suffering from malnutrition.

Why was miasma theory replaced?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Miasma theory was replaced because John Snow collected data that showed that germs cause disease.

Explanation:

The theory of miasma was proposed in the past when some scientists —like doctors Thomas Sydenham and Giovanni Maria Lancisi— thought that disease was the product of emanations originated by the decomposition of organic matter. This theory was based on the fact that diseases predominated in places with poor hygienic conditions.

John Snow, an english physician, was one of the main contributors to the <u>microbial theory of disease</u>. In 1854, while a cholera epidemic was occurring, he collected data and organized it statistically and then concluded that the disease was caused by germs present in drinking water. This <u>data was contrary to the miasma theory, which would eventually be displaced by the microbial theory of the disease</u>.
