Pure Water
Chlorine creates free radical damage in the heart and
arteries. Virutally all city water supplies contain chlorine
or chloramines (compounded from chlorine and ammonia) as a disinfectant. This practice began around 1910. Many
health experts are convinced that consumption of chlorinated
water is a leading cause of the growth in circulatory disease
over the last century.
Many home water systems have put lead in
the water from the solder used to seal pipe joints. Water-borne
bacteria could be a problem as well.
Every home should have a water
purification system for drinking and bathing and showering.

Antioxidants
Certain antioxidant nutrients & herbs rich in them,
are valuable in preventing free radical damage to the heart.
Others can help the heart recover and and improve circulatory health.
The following antioxidants offer great benefit for the
heart and circulation:
Vitamin E, Vitamin C, OPC's
(antioxidant compounds from maritime pine bark, grape seeds,
& curcumin/tumeric), ellagitannins (from red raspberries, grapes and
other fruits), co-enzyme Q-10 (improves oxygen
transfer), lignans special antioxidants in flaxseed), tocotrienols
(powerful antioxidants related to vitamin E), &
negatively ionized hydrogen (the strongest antioxidant).

Other
Nutrients
Flaxseed also is a source for the Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acid. That plus the
excellent fiber in it make flaxseed popular for reducing cholesterol.

High quality minerals are very important,
especially calcium, magnesium, potassium, and trace minerals. Also,
the enzymes protease & lipase help clean up arterial plaque and fatty
deposits.

WALK HEART PROBLEMS AWAY
An article published not long ago in JAMA (Journal of The
American Medical Association) describes a thorough study on
the effect of exercise on cardiovascular health in
postmenopausal women.
Those who walked or more vigorously exercised for at least 2
1/2 hours a week had about 30% less incidence of circulatory
disease. The participants who walked for 45 minutes, 5 days
per week had 45% less cardiovascular disease.
It was discovered that simple walking is just as good as
jogging, running or other more active exercise. Walking
briskly had slightly more benefit than a slower pace.
However, those who sit much of the time during their day are
worse off, even though they exercise. It is important to get
up and move around frequently.
It is expected that the same benefit of walking and other
exercise occurs for other segments of the population as well.

THE SIGNALS OF A HEART ATTACK:
~ Persistent chest pain or discomfort (which can range from
discomfort to an unbearable crushing sensation in the chest)
that lasts longer than 3 to 5 minutes or is not relieved by
resting, changing position, oral medication, or goes away and
then comes back;
~ Discomfort, pain or pressure in either arm; that spreads to
the shoulder, neck or jaw;
~ Breathing difficulty, which may cause dizziness;
~ Nausea;
~ Skin appearance, which may be pale or bluish in color. The
face may be moist or may sweat profusely;
~ Unconsciousness.
To care for a heart attack
victim:
- Recognize the signals of a heart attack;
- Call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number for help;
- Convince and help the victim to stop activity and rest
comfortably;
- Try to obtain additional information about the victim's
condition;
- Assist with medication, if prescribed (some doctors
recommend chewing up an aspirin, ideally 325 mg. for a normal adult);
- Monitor the victim's condition;
- Be prepared to give CPR and use an AED if the victim's heart
stops beating;
Often a heart attack victim experiences chest pain that does
not go away; the pain may spread to the shoulder, arm, neck,
jaw or back. It is usually not relieved by resting, changing
position or taking medicine.
If the pain is severe or does not go away in 3-5 minutes,
call 9-1-1 or your local emergency number at once. A heart
attack victim may deny that any signal is serious. If it
appears as though the victim is having a heart attack, stay
calm, reassure the victim, and call 9-1-1 (or your local
emergency number).
