Heart (Cardiovascular) Disease Averted with Whole Food Nutrition

Heart Disease (aka. Cardiovascular Disease) has to do with any number of problems relating to the health of the heart, as well as blood vessels, valves, the heart muscle itself, electrical impulses, blood pressure and rhythm. Also related is one’s cholesterol levels.

Heart (cardiovascular) problems include:
Arrhythmia/fibrillation (atrial or ventricle)
Rapid heartbeat
Slow heartbeat
High blood pressure (hypertension)
Poor circulation
Atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis
Mitral valve prolapse
Stroke
Heart attack
and more

When it comes to heart disease, this is an area where everyone, even mainstream physicians, agrees that what you consume has a lot to do with the state of your cardiovascular system. However, there is a lot of disagreement as to whether eating fats or cholesterol foods actually cause heart disease. The reason for this confusion is that the food and drug companies make a lot of money selling their products aimed at the cholesterol scare that is predominant in the media. The bottom line is that there are good fats and there are bad fats. The bad ones cause artery (and other) damage, while the good ones are essential for health of all tissues and nerves.

Adjunctive Nutritional Schedule
(always consult with physician if you are taking heart medications, especially blood thinners before taking any products)
* Healthy Heart: 4 tablets a day
* Whole Calcium Supplement: 8 tablets a day
* Vitamin B Food: 8 tablets a day
* Alkaline Food: 6 tablets a day

For better fat digestion, add
Digestive Enzymes capsules: 1 with every other meal.

Some of the best foods for heart health are ones that dilate the blood vessels (See Whole Calcium Supplement). Dilating the blood vessels helps increase circulation to and from the heart. Other foods are support the heart by supporting the nerve system that feeds the heart with electrical impulses. These foods contain the vitamin B complex, calcium, potassium, magnesium and essential fatty acids. (See Vitamin B Food, Alkaline Food, FlaxSeed Oil) Other foods contain ingredients such as alfalfa that have been shown to remove cholesterol from the body (see Alkaline Food and Super Green Food).

Bad Foods
Bad foods are those that damage the cardiovascular system. These foods include ones that erode blood vessels like altered and synthetic oils; hydrogenated, partially hydrogenated margarine, fake fats, fried foods, etc. The concern about clogging the blood vessels has more to do with the effect of bad foods. In other words, some foods such as bad fats will wear out the blood vessels which then in turn become cracked and hemorrhage (leak blood); then the body tries to repair the cracks with cholesterol and/or calcium. Then, the blood vessels become occluded (blocked) and blood and oxygen cannot squeeze through, which in turn deprives the heart or brain. The result is a heart attack or stroke.
