Our world is a frightening place to live in. When a child is born, every parent wishes for their offspring to grow peacefully and reach old age. Obviously, we all are going to die eventually, but we prefer to be in the best health and die in our old age. None us wishes to die before our time from cancer, or a heart attack, or be hit by an automobile. This is obvious.

Unfortunately, there are countless reasons why people die before their time. Many of those reasons are natural in origin (diseases, viruses, bacteria), but many are man-made (pollutants, car accidents), and most - quite ironically, the biggest causes of death - are literally a result of our very own choices (smoking, obesity, alcohol drinking).

Perhaps surprisingly, the most common cause of death worldwide is smoking. This is definitely something that each one of us can avoid, and by doing so, significantly improve our health and live longer. Not to mention that by doing so, we alsoincrease our budget and protect our offspring from the damage we cause to them.

In our site, Cause of Death, we recognize the top causes of death and elaborate, in detail, the six most common reasons people die prematurely.

Furthermore, we offer practical advice that could help you to prevent these untimely deaths. Our goal is, quite literally, to get our readers to live longer. Hey, even if one person changes her lifestyle as a result of our website and lives longer, then our mission has been achieved. It is as the Talmud says: “To save one life is as if you have saved the world”. We completely agree.
