Nearly sixty percent of the population in the united states dies from which three causes?

Hi there,

Nearly sixty percent of the population in the United States dies from heart diseases, strokes, and cancers.

People have been dying more from heart diseases since 2009. More than 610,000. That is why heart disease is one of the "three causes of deaths in America".

For cancer around 8.9 million people have been diagnosed and died from cancer.

For strokes about 140,000 people have died.

This is just in America we didn't include the other countries Worldwide.

Hope this is correct :)

Have a great day

Explanation:

According to  the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 60% of strokes end in deaths, becoming the third death cause in the United States. This cardiovascular accidents (best known as strokes) occurs when the blood supply to the brain is blocked, mainly by fat in the veins, which alters cardiac rhythm.

In 2017, the CDC reported 2,813,503 death people, 647,457 by a heart disease, 599,108 by cancer, and 146,383 by strokes or cardiovascular accidents, these three represent the 50% of total death, these numbers are alarming. If we consider that in the same year 70.2% between men and women were obese, that could imply that basically non-healthy habits is killing people.

what do we need our phalanges for?
