| The Basics of a Healthy Heart |
| The heart
weighs between 200 to 450 grams and is approximately
the size of a closed fist. Each day, the average heart
beats 100,000 times, pumping about 8,000 liters of blood.
|
| The heart
is located between the lungs in the middle of the chest,
behind the sternum. A double-layered membrane called
the pericardium surrounds it. |
| The heart
and circulatory system make up your cardiovascular system.
The heart works as a pump which pushes blood to the
organs, tissues, and cells of the body. Blood delivers
oxygen and nutrients to every cell and then removes
the carbon dioxide and waste products produced by those
cells. Blood is carried from the heart to the rest of
the body through arteries, and then returned to your
heart through veins. |
| The human
heart is divided into 4 chambers. The two top chambers
are called atriums, and the two lower chambers are called
ventricles. The atriums collect the blood that enters
the heart and pushes it to the ventricles. In
turn, the ventricles push blood out of the heart and
into the arteries to go to the rest of the body. |
|
| How the healthy heart works |
| During
the systole, the right ventricle pushes deoxygenated
blood through the pulmonic valve to the lungs. In the
lungs a transfer of gases occurs. The red blood
cells release carbon dioxide and pick up oxygen. The
carbon dioxide is then exhaled. |
| The reoxygenated
blood returns to the left atrium. From there it
is then circulated to the body during systole by the
left ventricle, where it is available at all times for
use by the body. The used blood then returns to the
right atrium for a return trip through the lungs. |
| An electrical
system stimulates the heart muscle by initiating an
electrical impulse, which is carried to all parts of
the heart muscle causing it to contract. Disruptions
in this cycle range from the simple annoying "skipped
beats" to arrhythmias that often accompany a heart attack.

Diseases of the Cardiovascular System
|
| About 20%
of the population is at high risk of coronary heart
disease. These patients can be identified by the major
risk factors in their lives, including obesity, cigarette
smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and
diabetes. You can take active measures to promote a
healthy heart lifestyle and avoid being included in
this group. Start by learning about the risk factors
for coronary heart disease and which of them you can
control. Modifying any of the risk factors can be very
beneficial in helping you maintain a healthy heart.

What is Atherosclerosis?
|
| Hardening
of the arteries due to calcification associated with
cholesterol deposition in the wall of the arteries,
Atherosclerosis can occur not only in the heart but
also throughout the body. It may be localized at a restricted
small segment of the artery, or diffuse, marked by cholesterol
buildup and narrowing along the entire length of an
artery. |
|
What is Hypertension?
|
| High blood
pressure, a major risk factor for heart disease. Blood
pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
The threshold for hypertension is variously defined
as 140 mmHg systolic and 90 mmHg diastolic to as high
as 200 mmHg systolic and 110 mmHg diastolic. In the
Gould program, the target blood pressure is 120/80 mmHg
or below. |
|
What is Coronary heart disease?
|
| Cardiovascular
diseases include stroke, congestive heart failure, hypertension,
and other diseases, as well as coronary heart disease.
In the U.S., the number of deaths from coronary heart
disease is nearly as high as the number of deaths from
all forms of cancer combined. |

| Hawthorn
berries are known for their preventative properties,
helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Hawthorn berries contain large amounts of bioflavonoids,
best known for their support of a healthy heart. The
bioflavonoid substances help dilate and strengthen the
walls of blood vessels, relax arteries, and improve
circulation of blood to heart muscles. |
| Hawthorn
berries have been used since the 19th century to support
the heart and normalize cardiovascular functions. Today,
hawthorn berries are one of the most popular herbs used
in Europe. Hawthorn berries appear to work best when
taken as a preventative herb, possibly helping reduce
the risk of cardiovascular disease. |
| Hawthorn
berries help normalize the heart, either by stimulating
or depressing its activity. For this reason, hawthorn
berries are used to lower high blood pressure and high
cholesterol, as well as increase low blood pressure.
Hawthorn berries reduce water retention by expelling
excess salt from the body, further encouraging a healthy
heart. |
| Hawthorn
berries reduce water retention expelling excess salt
from the body. |
| Garlic
is rich source of potassium, zinc, selenium, vitamin
A and Vitamin C. Garlic is commonly used to fight infection,
increase circulation and help prevent cardiovascular
disease. Garlic has been known to detoxify the body,
cleansing the kidneys and increasing urine flow. |

glycoside that has actions similar to digitalis but
is milder. Strophantus is used for arteriosclerosis,
cardiac insufficiency, and hypertension. |
| CoQ10,
also referred to as ubiquinone, exists everywhere in
the body assisting with enzyme functions on a cellular
level. CoQ10 encourages energy production helping enzymes
release energy in every cell, which also may reduce
fat storage. CoQ10 is naturally found in foods like
mackerel, salmon, sardines, peanuts and spinach. It
stimulates immune system function, improves heart function,
enhances the production of cellular energy, and is a
powerful antioxidant. It moves energy throughout the
body, increasing the efficiency of cellular metabolism.
