“The most important thing in illness is never to lose heart.” – Nikolai Lenin
THE HEART OF THE MATTER
There are thousands of miles of blood vessels in our body, and the heart must beat regularly and steadily, 70 or so times a minute, 700,000 times a week, and some 2.5 thousand million times in the average lifetime. A muscle only as big as a decently sized apple, the heart normally does its job with relative ease, squeezing out 4-5 liters of blood every minute and as much as 24 liters when exercise makes it necessary. However sometimes things go wrong with this extremely important organ that is electrically regulated and full of delicate tissue.
The diseases that affect the cardiovascular system (comprising the veins, arteries and the heart itself) are very significant in all parts of the world, especially the developed nations. The complications arising due to these diseases are the major cause of deaths in the developed world. Natural and holistic treatments are very effective in the treatment of cardiovascular disease. Treatments are safe and gentle to use and improve the overall functioning of the heart, arteries and the entire cardiovascular system. Conditions effectively treated by natural therapies include:
- CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA
- CORONARY ARTERY DISEASE (ARTERIOSCLEROSIS)
- STROKE
- CARDIOMYOPATHY
- HIGH/LOW BLOOD PRESSURE
- POOR CIRCULATION
