HEART ATTACK FACTS • 37% of all deaths in the United States are related to heart disease, making it the largest single cause of natural death. Heart disease kills twice as many people as all forms of cancer combined. The major causes are smoking, fatty diet, high blood pressure, obesity, stress, heredity, lack of exercise, and diabetes. It is an illness produced of man's environment. Before 1900, heart attacks were very rare. The rate of heart disease increased so sharply between 1940 and 1967 that the World Health Organization called it the world’s most serious epidemic. • Every single cell in the heart is guided by an electrical impulse which synchronizes the heartbeat so all muscle cells contract in unison to pump the blood. During a heart attack, the cells begin firing out of turn so the efficiency of the heart is lost and the blood does not get pumped. When doctors shock the heart, the shock overrides each cell’s individual firing mechanism and once again synchronizes every cell, hopefully getting them all to work together again.

EARL TUPPER (continued): • Within a few years, Tupper took his knowledge and experience from DuPont, and along with some used molding machines, he started up the Earl S. Tupper Company, concentrating his efforts on plastic kitchen utensils and other household items. • Tupper first marketed his products as giveaways, such as a plastic cigarette case with the purchase of cigarettes or a plastic glass free with a toothbrush. His breakthrough came with his “wonderbowl,” an airtight plastic container with a patented burping seal. His first line of kitchen items was comprised of 25 pastel-colored items, with every piece designed by Tupper himself. His wife, mother, and aunts were the testers of each item. • In 1946, Tupperware debuted in hardware and department stores. Two years later, he received a call from a Florida woman named Brownie Wise, who presented Tupper with an innovative idea, that of selling his products exclusively through home parties. The Tupperware party was born! Tupperware was withdrawn from retail stores, and Brownie became the vice-president of the company’s home party division. She was responsible for recruiting thousands of women into an exciting career in the 1950s. • Drastic changes came about in Tupper’s life in 1958. After eight years of Brownie Wise’s extraordinary success at the helm, Tupper fired her abruptly and without cause. Within months, he had sold his company to the Rexall Drug Company for $16 million. Shortly afterward, he divorced his wife, bought an island in Central America, forfeited his U.S. citizenship, and spent the remainder of his life in Costa Rica. • Within five years of the founding of Tupper Plastics, annual gross sales exceeded $5 million. At the time of Tupper’s death in 1983, Tupperware’s annual sales were over $800 million.
