No. Besides, Ben & Jerry don't even own Ben & Jerry's anymore. It is owned by a big Danish conglomerate.
2 :
yes.
3 :
who is ben and jerry?mmmmmm......ice cream......yummy!!!!!!
4 :
No... Just like I wouldn't cash-in any Ford stocks I have if CEO Alan Mulally died in a car crash.
5 :
I would buy more stock. It would go well with my 'heart stopper deluxe' burger. And there's no bad publicity especially when advertising sins of the arteries. The world wants it and is populated by a big yellow clown with a drive through.
6 :
You do know that Ben Cohen of Ben and Jerry's underwent a quintuple bypass. Not good.
7 :
you're bad... indirectly wishing Ben & Jerry to die of heart disease... *shakes head

I don't know much about this but my first choice would be to concentrate on omega-3s and omega-6s
2 :
Coronary heart disease is due to eating bad oils like VEGETABLE OILS that are very unstable and go rancid very easily even in the body; a nano bacteria that can be found in cooked foods and attacks the heart muscle, arteries, the pancreas, and kidneys; inflammation in the body, especially in the teeth, etc. Bottom line is that there are a lot of things that cause heart disease. A very necessary vitamin that will nourish the heart tissue is COQ-Quinol that is fully reduced. All the COQ-10 products being sold on the market actually can damage the body because it is in the "ash" form and not fully reduced. This form will not even help damaged cells. COQ-10 is actually vitamin Q. Like many so called vitamins that are nothing more than synthetic chemical activators that damage the body's DNA and become toxic to the body, these activators strip the body of cofactors and actually make you less healthy, not more healthy. These single element so called vitamins actually can cause more problems than they purport to help. When you look at the ingredients in the bottles, you will see loads of excipients that are also damaging and many actually cancer inducing like talc. All the pill manufacturers use talc to give good release from the machines. Bad news. Anything that helps the muscles will help the heart. Calcium and magnesium are key elements. good luck to you

This Patient Guide is written for the loved ones of heart patients who are dealing with the short-term stress that comes with a test, procedure or recent diagnosis of heart disease. It explains why support is so important to a loved one with heart disease. It also offers practical strategies on how to support a loved one while also taking care of yourself.

There is no specific nutrient or combination(s) that will prevent heart disease. That said, there are several nutrients that the heart needs to maintain proper health and function. These include but are not limited to: calcium, iron and protein. Basically, since the heart is a muscle, any nutrient required for proper muscle support is needed by the heart as well. The diets of people living in the US and other developed countries normally provide adequate amounts of the essential nutrients to maintain health. It's other things we find in our diets that cause harm, particularly in the US. Things like saturated fat, trans fatty acids, cholesterol and sodium. The body does need certain amounts of some fats, cholesterol and sodium. It does not need any trans fat. We Americans consume way too much of these. Eating a diet high in fiber is recommended by most experts. A varied diet focusing on fruits, vegetables and whole grains is also promoted by most. Meats should include leaner cuts with all visible fat removed. Fish and poultry are recommended. Especially fish high in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids are another recommendation. Omega-6 can be found in liquid vegetable oils, including soybean oil, corn oil, and safflower oil. It is also found in soybeans, canola, walnuts, and flaxseed. Some people may benefit from dietary supplements. This is something that should be discussed with your healthcare provider. Physical Activity/Daily Exercise are also very important factors in fighting cardiovascular disease. This could be a simple as walking around the block or may include a gym membership with an intense cardio workout. Check out the links below if you want more information

Could Untreated Cavities lead to Heart Disease And/Or Death

Could Untreated Cavities lead to Heart Disease And/Or Death?
How?

1 :
Your teeth have capillaries. A cavity is a hole in your tooth. If bacteria gets on the tooth it will get into the cavity, and into the capillary, then right to heart. I don't know about death, but you will have to be put on antibiotics.
2 :
I'll try and keep this brief. The real answer to your question requires a lot of anatomic and biologic background. So, no, untreated cavities will not lead to heart disease. Heart disease by definition is typically a problem with the arteries which feed the heart muscle itself, or problems with the heart muscle or associated veins/arteries. Can cavities cause death, yes in very rare cases. This is typically caused by swelling of the area under and around the tongue which can cause the airway to close, causing death. Even more, extremely RARE, is a systemic (whole body/bloodstream) infection that has started in a tooth. In many years of practice I have never seen one (and I have spent years at a University hospital). Addition: In case some one flips over this answer, some patients do require an antibiotic prior to dental procedures. This is due to specific health problems they may have. Some dental procedures have been reported to cause an increse in bacteria in the blood stream. This reason has led to SOME persons needing antibiotics prior to surgery, deep cleanings, etc. Yes, years ago some people died of what is known as "Bacterial Endocarditis", but this is EXTREMELY rare nowadays!
