Home Remedies for Arteriosclerosis
Arteriosclerosis or hardening of the arteries is the leading
cause of disease and death in America, causing heart disease,
stroke, kidney disease and problems with circulation in
the limbs.
Arteriosclerosis occurs due to oxidative damage to the
lining of the arteries, infiltration with fat-filled cells
and formation of plaques and clots.
Risk factors include smoking, blood sugar disorders, obesity,
an excess of "bad" cholesterol or LDL and high
homocysteine levels, as well as a diet high in refined carbohydrates
and trans fatty acids (i.e. processed oils). Damage to the
arterial wall may also be due to chronic viral or bacterial
infection.
Supplementation with folic acid, B12 and B6, CoO10, selenium,
omega 3 oils and antioxidants would cut the risk of Arteriosclerosis
and heart disease to a fraction of its current rate.
Herbal treatment for hardening of the arteries relies upon
the strong antioxidant power of many plants, preventing
the arterial damage that acts as a site for the development
of plaque. They also prevent oxidation of LDL cholesterol,
which leads to arterial deposits. Some herbs can remove
existing arteriosclerosis, returning elasticity to arteries.
Such plants have multiple benefits, such as toning the heart,
reducing cholesterol and preventing blood cell clumping
and clot formation. The central herb for the heart is hawthorn,
while a combination or rotating schedule of several other
healing plants will maximize their long-term benefit.
