Herbal cure to cardiovascular disease

 Green tea contains an antibacterial and antifungal agent, although it does have an alkaloid base and a small
percentage of people may not benefit from its use. If you do not benefit from this tea, try clove tea instead. It is a good idea to alternate between the two, because clove tea has some benefits that green tea does not have and vice versa.
  To make green tea, boil quart of distilled water with 2 tablespoons of herb for five minutes. Cool and store it in the refrigerator with the-tea leaves in. Strain before drinking, if needed. Drink 3 cups daily.
  CPHA Anti infection tea: lemon tea, lemon juice and lemon balm. It is a good alternative. Use it as your regular tea. Resistant strains of Candida develop rapidly due to genetic mutation. Eat vegetables, fish, grains such as brown rice and millet. For vaginal candidilasis, apply yogurt directly to the vagina. This helps to inhibit the growth of the fungus. Take some type of fiber daily. Oat bran is a good source. Drink distilled water only, not water from tap. Make sure the diet is fruit-free, sugar-free, and yeast- free. Candida thrives in a sugary environment, so your diet should be low in carbohydrates and contain no yeast products or sugar in any form.
  Avoid alcohol, baked goods, chocolate, dried fruits, and fermented foods, all grains containing gluten (wheat, oats, and barley), ham, honey, nut butters, pickles, potatoes, raw mushrooms, soy sauce, sprouts, and vinegar. Eliminate citrus and acidic fruits such as oranges, grape- fruit, lemons, tomatoes, pineapple, and limes from your diet for one month; then add back only a few twice weekly. Although they seem acidic, these fruits are actually alkaline- forming in the body and Candida thrives on them. To prevent reinfection, replace your toothbrush every thirty days. This is a good preventive measure against both fungal and bacterial infections of the mouth.
  Wear white cotton underwear. Synthetic fibers lead to increased perspiration, which creates a hospitable environment for Candida, and also traps bacteria, which can cause a secondary infection. Change underclothing daily. Do not use corticosteroids or oral contraceptives until your condition improves. Oral contraceptives can upset the balance of micro-organisms in the body, leading to proliferation of C. albicans.
   Avoid household chemical products and cleaners, chlorinated water, mothballs, synthetic textiles, and damp and moldy places, such as basements. If you have chronic and or unusually persistent Candida infections, consult your health care provider. This may be a sign of an underlying illness such as diabetes or immune system dysfunction, which makes for an environment more conducive to the growth of yeast. All persons on long-term antibiotics or chemotherapy are at high risk for severe cases of candidilasis. Taking antibiotics also can cause a deficiency of vitamin K, which is manufactured by the "good bacteria" in the intestines. Eating plenty of leafy greens, strawberries, whole grains, and yogurt can restore the vitamin K balance. If a breastfed baby develops oral thrush or a nursing mother develops a thrush infection of the nipples, both mother and baby should be treated to eradicate the infection, even if only one of them seems to be affected.
  Carica tea may be helpful. Fin carica tea and sorrel tea contain many of the B vitamins, boosts energy, and improves the immune response. Also Boil unripe paw-paw because it contains vitamin C vitamin D vitamin E vitamin A and vitamin K. Drink it as a soup.
  What is cardiovascular disease? Has it a herbal cure?
  Cardiovascular system is made up of the heart and blood vessels. Blood is pumped by the heart and circulated throughout the body through the blood vessels. The arteries that supply blood to the heart are called the coronary arteries. If the heart's blood vessels narrow, the amount of blood they supply to the heart may be insufficient to provide the oxygen the heart needs. This oxygen deprivation is what causes a type of chest pain known as angina pectoris. Angina is characterized by a heavy, tight pain in the chest area, usually after some type of exertion. The pain usually recedes with rest. If the coronary arteries that carry oxygen and nutrients to the heart muscle become obstructed, the flow of blood is cut off completely, and a heart attack, or myocardial infarction, can occur, resulting in damage to the heart muscle. Arteriosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, and the presence of a thrombus, orclotina blood vessels are the most common causes of obstruction. Arteriosclerosis is responsible for most of the deaths resulting from heart attacks. Spasms of the coronary arteries can also result in a heart attack.
  A heart attack may feel as if someone is applying intense pressure to the chest. This pain may last for several minutes, often extending to the shoulder, arm, neck, or jaw. Other signs of heart attack include sweating, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting, feelings of anxiety, difficulty swallowing, sudden ringing in the ears, and loss of speech. The amount and type of chest pain vary from one person to another. Some people have intense pain, while others feel only mild discomfort. Many mistake the signs of a heart attack for indigestion. Some have no symptoms at all, a situation referred to as a "silent" heart attack.
  Hypertension (high blood pressure) is often a precursor to heart problems. Hypertension is an extremely common form of cardiovascular disease. It usually results from a decrease in the elasticity or a reduction in the interior diameter of the arteries (or both), which may be caused by arteriosclerosis, defects in sodium metabolism, stress, nutritional deficiencies, and enzyme imbalances.
  Kidney disease, hyperthyroidism, disorders of the pituitary or adrenal glands, and the use of oral contraceptives can also lead to hypertension, and heredity may be a factor. Because it is essentially painless, especially in the early stages, many people don't even know they have it, hence the term "silent killer." By the time hypertension causes complications that result in symptoms (such as rapid pulse, shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches, and sweating), the disorder is more difficult to treat. Untreated hypertension is the leading cause of stroke, and also greatly increases the risk of heart attack, heart failure, and kidney failure.
  Other types of cardiovascular disease include heart failure, arrhythmias, and valvular disease. While a heart attack occurs because of an interruption in blood flow to the heart, heart failure is characterized by inadequate blood flow from the heart-the heart fails to pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Symptoms include fatigue, poor colour, shortness of breath, and edema (swelling due to the accumulation of fluid in the body's tissues), especially around the ankles. Arrhythmias are disturbances in the normal rhythm of the heartbeat. There are different kinds of arrhythmias. Some are quite dangerous, seven immediately life threatening, while others may be merely annoying (or scarcely noticeable), and pose no particular danger. Valvular disease is a term for disorders that impair the functioning of one or more of the heart's valves. It may be caused by congenital defect, or it may be the consequence of illness such as rheumatic fever or endocarditis (infection of the heart muscle).
  Unfortunately, despite remarkable new technology for both diagnosis and treatment of heart conditions, the first sign of cardiovascular disease may be a life-threatening calamity. Disorders of the cardiovascular system are often far advanced before they become symptomatic. Cardiovascular disease is not an inevitable result of ageing. Many preventive measures can be taken to avoid heart disease. Controllable factors that can contribute to heart disease include smoking, high blood pressure, elevated serum cholesterol, a type-A personality, stress, obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, and diabetes. You can alter your lifestyle to keep your heart healthy.
  Your heart is the most important muscle in your body. A simple pulse test can help you determine how well your heart is functioning. The best time to check your pulse is first thing in the morning. If your pulse is under 60, your heart is functioning at a good pace. If your pulse is above 80, you may need to change your diet and lifestyle. If your pulse remains rapid, consult your health care provider to rule out problems. A chronically high pulse rate is often a precursor of hypertension. Taken daily, this pulse test can forewarn you of oncoming illness.
  An extract from the plant bush ginger formula inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids in the liver, thus helping to prevent the accumulation of potentially dangerous fats in the body. "Ulodi and ukpodi" are herbal combination formula that has given good results. ure to cardiovascular disease
