What the Hell is Heart Health?

I mean, really, what exactly does that mean?
Well to most people, that means that the doctor said your cholesterol level is low, and he DID NOT tell you that you have heart disease.
No news is good news, right?
Well, not exactly. You can’t call that heart health, because the first sign of heart disease could be a heart attack. And for women, that first heart attack is devastating. Most women don’t survive the first year, following a heart attack.
The statistics do NOT look good for women and heart surgery either. That is why the drugging surgical side of heart disease doesn’t know how to help women with this disabling disease, for the most part.
This is one reason that so many women are not diagnosed sooner, when lifestyle changes are more quickly beneficial.
If your doctor doesn’t tell you, that you should be concerned, then where will you hear it?
Heart Failure Solutions spends many hours spreading the word that we should all be concerned about heart disease.
Now pick up the phone, or email someone you care about and get them here for their heart defense education. This affects more families than it doesn’t.
You don’t know what you don’t know.
Most everyone has heard:
- reduce saturated fat
- eat your fruits and vegetables
- reduce, if not stop, smoking
- get out there and exercise
What you need to know is:
- The “Standard American Diet” will starve you of the nutrition you need. You are starving your heart. You are clogging your arteries.
- A common cause of obesity is this malnourishment. Your body knows that it is starving.
- Just eating foods as close to their natural state as possible will improve many discomforts.
- To some people food additives are poison. They are unnecessarily troubled physically and mentally due to the chemicalized foods they eat, and water retention is a common result.
- Excess water retention, for any reason puts a worrisome burden on the heart. Fat does not stress the heart like excess fluid!
- Cholesterol-lowering medications can cause CoQ10 deficiencies that can lead to heart failure.
- STRESS will KILL you!
I could go on and on here, but you get the point.
Check out a ground breaking book on the subject.
Dr. Dwight Lundell will explain why inflammation kills, and the REAL cure for heart disease.
Educate yourself about The Cholesterol Lie from a Heart Surgeon trying to save you from the misinformation your doctor was taught.
Don’t by into The Cholesterol Lie!
Many blessings,
Carrie
