Thinking about aging (not just my own but the overall trend in Asia & world) & started to look into statistics of how we die, which incidentally is the title of one of my favorite books.
Death is interesting b/c it teaches us about life.
In the US, 2.8 millions die per year.

Just like in nature, a tree falls to decay, which becomes nutrient of life, to make space for other trees, our lives end otherwise it will be pretty crowded. How we live tells a bit about how we die. That's 0.86% of population that die per year (births higher so population rises)
Data is from 2017.
23% of Americans die of heart disease or 647k people per year. I suppose that has to do w/ our diet & lifestyle & the heart wears out as more mileage is added on.
Take care of the heart when u're young. 💗
