Heart disease: Mortality of 2013 - 611,105


A heart disease is any disorder that negatively affects the heart. Some Examples of the different
types of heart disease include Congenital heart disease, Coronary artery disease (CAD), Heart
attack, or Heart failure. Three health factors that can cause heart disease are Diabetes, Obesity,
or just having a poor diet in general.

2. Cancer: Mortality of 2013 - 584,881


Cancer is a disease that can occur in many part of the body, such as lung or skin. but what it
does is that it creates by an uncontrolled division of abnormal cells which your body has trouble
fighting back. This can happen if a mutation gene tells a cell to grow and divide faster and then
that cell can create new cells that all have the same mutation. Your body could also fail to tell
you cells to stop growing. Or the genes that find and fix the your cells DNA can become unable
to do their job properly leading to cancer.

3. Chronic lower respiratory diseases: Mortality of 2013 - 149,205


Chronic lower respiratory disease also known as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
(COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that cause airflow blockage and breathingrelated problems. This is often caused by long-term exposure to irritating gases (aka. Cigarets
or the smoking of tobacco). There are two diseases that can also lead to COPD, the first is
emphysema (a disease that causes the destruction of the fragile walls and elastic fibers of the
air sacks in your lungs called alveoli), and the second is chronic bronchitis (with this your
bronchial tubes become inflamed and narrow, your lungs produce more mucus, which can
further block the narrowed tubes).

4. Accidents (unintentional injuries): Mortality of 2013 - 130,557


Mainly out of your control, but there are things that might of lead up to that can range from poor
dieting that can lead to malnourishment being less aware of your surroundings. Stress as well, if
someone unable to deal with stress is working with something dangerous you could make a slip
up. If your blind you might have trouble spotting dangers in your environment and unknowingly
walk to your death.

5. Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): Mortality of 2013 - 128,978


A stroke is when the blood flow to your brain is interrupted or severely reduced, thus depriving
the brain of oxygen and nutrients and after a while brain cells start to die. Things that can
increase the risk of a stroke include having high blood pressure, high cholesterol, as well as
exposure to cigarette smoke.

6. Alzheimer's disease: Mortality of 2013 - 84,767


A progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental functions. What that
means is that someone with Alzheimer's disease might at first have mild confusion and difficulty
remembering but this can degrade to the point of forgetting important people in their lives and
having dramatic changes in personality. This can happen from Plaques ( a clump of betaamyloid which is harmful to brain cells), past head trauma, a diet with little to no fruits or
vegetables, and many others not mentioned.

7. Diabetes: Mortality of 2013 - 75,578


A disease that affects how your body uses blood sugar (glucose). The reason this is dangerous
is because, while glucose is vital to your health as an important source of energy for the cells
that make up your muscles and tissues, having to much of it can create health problems. Some
factors that can cause diabetes is age and weight (the risk of diabetes increases as they do)
along with high blood pressure.

8. Influenza and Pneumonia: Mortality of 2013 - 56,979


Influenza, or the flu, is a viral infection that attacks your respiratory system (nose, throat, lungs).
Pneumonia is an infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs (possibly filling the air
sacs with a fluid or pus). You can catch the flu if you have a weak immune system, a chronic
illness, or if you live in close proximity of many people. While a weak immune system can also
give you pneumonia, you can also get it from smoking or having a chronic disease (not illness).

9. Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, and nephrosis: Mortality of 2013 - 47,112


Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder that causes your body to excrete too much protein in
your urine. The cause of this can stem from medical conditions that can damage your kidneys,
or, certain medications, or certain infections.

10. Intentional self-harm (suicide): Mortality of 2013 - 41,149


The best way I can describe suicide is self-harm with the intent of it resulting in death. You may
be at risk of suicide if you have experienced a stressful event in life (such as the loss of a loved
one or financial issues), having a mental disorder (like depression, PTSD, or being bipolar), or
being a vicim or rape or bullying. Those who might be suicidal then the best way to avoid it
would be calling 1-800-273-8255 (National Suicide Prevention Lifeline).
