How To Prevent Cardiovascular Disease

   Posted by: JLW   in General

Close To 25% of all deaths are caused by heart disease owing to impeded or ‘furred up’ coronary (heart) arteries, a condition medically known as atherosclerosis that is a result of high blood cholesterol levels. A primary element in heart disease is your life style and which foods you eat. Simplistic actions like pursuing a 7 day detox diet, getting some exercise, shedding a few pounds and quitting smoking can play a big part in cutting down your chances of heart disease - you could also try using foot detox patches to work on eliminating all those toxins flooding round your bloodstream.

Warning signs of heart disease

If you get heart disease, you will be at enhanced risk of developing angina (chest pain resulting from your heart not receiving adequate oxygen), a heart attack; an arrhythmia (which is an subnormal heart rate, which may bring on shortness of breath, dizziness and in many cases death); or heart failure (when the heart cannot pump efficiently, leading to breathlessness, lethargy, swollen ankles, and which could eventually reduce your life expectancy).

Coronary Artery Disease also occurs in arterial blood vessels in different parts of the body, including the brain, kidneys, or legs. This may lead to strokes, kidney failure, or restricted blood circulation in the legs and in some cases amputation. Other health issues of the heart and circulatory system include increased blood pressure, heart attacks and varicose veins.

Most heart troubles can be avoided, or improved significantly by taking appropriate action. To reduce your danger of heart disease, you should eat a healthy diet, do not add an excessive amount of salt to your food, learn how to quit smoking, moderate your consumption of alcohol, try an exercise every day, lose excess weight (there’s plenty of quick easy weight loss tips to help you), and reduce your stress levels.

Green tea is is very good for detoxing your body, and is considered to help reduce heart and circulatory disease. While the evidence for these benefits is inconclusive, drinking green tea seems to be stable, so it should be worthwhile trying as well as other preventative measures.

Always discuss with your doctor prior to taking action on medical advice received from external sources.
