00:00:10,870 --> 00:00:16,450

In this video, we'll talk about remedies for a healthy heart, many natural remedies
use a variety

2
00:00:16,450 --> 00:00:22,570
of herbs and supplements to help treat as well as prevent heart disease
arthrosclerosis.

3
00:00:22,570 --> 00:00:26,370
The hardening of the arteries is a common cause of heart disease.

4
00:00:26,770 --> 00:00:28,950
This is found mainly in the Western world.

5
00:00:29,170 --> 00:00:35,710
However, arthrosclerosis is quite rare in the Third World due to its different
lifestyles, traditional

6
00:00:35,710 --> 00:00:37,420
diets and herbal remedies.

7
00:00:37,900 --> 00:00:44,630
Coenzyme Q10, or Ubiquiti Own is a compound that helps ourselves extract energy
from food.

8
00:00:45,160 --> 00:00:48,040
This compound is often missing from our diets.

9
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:55,840
Although Coenzyme 10 is produced naturally in our body, the amount decreases
dramatically as people

10
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,690
grow older or have reduced cholesterol levels.

11
00:00:59,260 --> 00:01:06,520
So coenzyme Q10 supplements will help you to ensure your body has an adequate
supply to sustain your

12
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,560
heart and keep yourself healthy.

13
00:01:09,550 --> 00:01:14,560
If you're not getting enough magnesium and potassium in your diet by taking these
supplements, you
14
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,940
can help regulate your blood pressure levels as well as improve heart function.

15
00:01:19,450 --> 00:01:26,110
As you may realize, by now, salt has a very colorful history, both in the
development of human civilization

16
00:01:26,110 --> 00:01:27,970
as well as public health politics.

17
00:01:27,970 --> 00:01:35,290
In the past century, while salt was originally prized by many cultures for
thousands of years, in

18
00:01:35,290 --> 00:01:37,680
the past century it has been demonized.

19
00:01:37,900 --> 00:01:43,570
Some have gone so far as calling it the single most harmful substance in the food
supply.

20
00:01:44,290 --> 00:01:47,500
But new studies have shown that salt has little to do with heart health.

21
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:53,620
In fact, it plays a crucial role in optimal health, and too little salt intake can
be dangerous in

22
00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:54,280
the long run.

23
00:01:54,490 --> 00:01:59,680
Natural refind sea or rock salt are a great source of minerals.

24
00:02:00,130 --> 00:02:06,100
It's become harder and harder to obtain trace minerals from the foods we eat due to
the lack of nutrient

25
00:02:06,100 --> 00:02:06,880
rich soil.

26
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:14,110
However, trace materials are still abundant in our planet's seas and oceans from
which we get a variety

27
00:02:14,110 --> 00:02:14,920
of sea salts.

28
00:02:15,580 --> 00:02:19,960
On the other hand, table salt is mined from salt deposits underground.

29
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,390
It's more heavily processed to eliminate minerals and usually contains an additive
to prevent clumping

30
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:32,560
by choosing a real whole salt that is worth its salt, you can enjoy the health and
taste benefits.

31
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,610
A balance of minerals from the sea can bring to your favorite dishes fish oil and
other supplements.

32
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,530
Many supplements like fish oil are often of low quality and can be harmful.

33
00:02:45,830 --> 00:02:50,520
This is due to the extraction process used, which causes them to oxidize.

34
00:02:51,020 --> 00:02:55,870
It's important to access the quality before purchasing or taking any supplements.

35
00:02:56,300 --> 00:02:59,850
Normally, a good, wholesome diet will supply all the needs of the body.

36
00:03:00,530 --> 00:03:06,170
The only time supplements become necessary is when your diet is lacking or when
certain health conditions

37
00:03:06,170 --> 00:03:09,040
cause you to develop an insufficiency or deficiency.

38
00:03:09,620 --> 00:03:14,600
Most dietary supplements are safe, and some of them offer actual health benefits,
but there can be

39
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,300
some risk with their use.

40
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,010
Some of these are also anti nutrients.
41
00:03:19,250 --> 00:03:22,130
They prevent the body absorbing nutrients.

42
00:03:22,610 --> 00:03:30,050
Omega three fatty acids are essential nutrients that are found in naturally grown
plants, free range,

43
00:03:30,170 --> 00:03:35,150
naturally fed livestock and sea caught fish, usually in nature.

44
00:03:35,150 --> 00:03:41,990
They are found in the ideal proportion for heart health of 50 50 with other natural
fats such as a Mega

45
00:03:41,990 --> 00:03:42,920
Six fats.

46
00:03:44,060 --> 00:03:50,630
Did you know that livestock such as eggs, dairy and seafood lack many essential
nutrients when they're

47
00:03:50,630 --> 00:03:53,180
raised in feedlots or factory farms?

48
00:03:53,180 --> 00:04:00,500
Without natural feeds or natural sunshine, they lack omega three fats and contain
very high amounts

49
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:03,400
of damaging fats, which is bad for health.

50
00:04:03,830 --> 00:04:10,550
So if you're not eating free range organic foods, then taking supplements may prove
beneficial in ensuring

51
00:04:10,550 --> 00:04:15,980
your body gets the nutrients it needs each day vitamins and their importance.

52
00:04:16,310 --> 00:04:20,240
Vitamin C is one of the safest and most effective nutrients.

53
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:27,980
Experts say a daily dose of vitamin C may have a similar effect as walking on a
protein called and docility,
54
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,060
one which promotes the constriction of small blood vessels.

55
00:04:32,930 --> 00:04:38,270
The study, which was presented at the American Physiological Society's 14th
International Conference

56
00:04:38,270 --> 00:04:43,780
on Endosulfan, involved 35 sedentary, overweight or obese adults.

57
00:04:44,450 --> 00:04:51,590
Those who took a daily time release dose of vitamin C, five hundred milligrams
reduced and docile in

58
00:04:51,590 --> 00:04:53,510
one mediated vessel constriction.

59
00:04:53,510 --> 00:04:59,540
As much as those who walked daily and docile in one activity is known to be higher
in those who are

60
00:04:59,540 --> 00:05:01,040
overweight and obese.

61
00:05:01,490 --> 00:05:06,950
Folic acid or vitamin B belongs to the family of water soluble vitamins.

62
00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:11,330
It's essential to include this vitamin in your routine diet plan.

63
00:05:11,780 --> 00:05:15,170
The human body is capable of preparing this essential vitamin.

64
00:05:15,350 --> 00:05:21,050
Daily requirements of the human body utilize a part of this stored vitamin and the
surplus amount is

65
00:05:21,050 --> 00:05:23,420
released out of the body through excretion.

66
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:30,470
It performs some of the most vital functions of the body, including everything from
RBC formation to

67
00:05:30,470 --> 00:05:31,610
energy production.

68
00:05:32,210 --> 00:05:38,060
The health benefits of vitamin B nine include the prevention of heart disorders,
stroke, cancer and

69
00:05:38,060 --> 00:05:39,650
birth defects during pregnancy.

70
00:05:40,130 --> 00:05:47,060
It also helps in building muscles, cell enhancement, hemoglobin formation and even
provides relief

71
00:05:47,060 --> 00:05:49,250
from mental and emotional disorders.

72
00:05:49,700 --> 00:05:55,160
Vitamin B nine is naturally found in asparagus, broccoli, brussel sprouts and
lentils.

73
00:05:56,230 --> 00:05:58,000
Enzymes in foods.

74
00:05:59,050 --> 00:06:06,640
Enzymes are vital for every cell in our body as they are organic biological
catalysts that start, promote

75
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:13,840
and speed up biochemical reactions, metabolic enzymes in the blood break down the
protein based protection

76
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,930
of viruses, parasites, bacteria and fungi.

77
00:06:17,890 --> 00:06:24,580
They are cleansers that combat chronic inflammation, preventing most diseases,
including heart disease.

78
00:06:25,030 --> 00:06:31,690
Our body produces many enzymes millions a day, but we still need a good supply of
fresh enzymes from

79
00:06:31,690 --> 00:06:34,660
fresh food antioxidants.

80
00:06:35,590 --> 00:06:41,440
When you eat a healthy, wholesome diet with plenty of raw, fresh fruits and
vegetables, you get a

81
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,760
good variety of enzymes and antioxidants as well as fiber.

82
00:06:46,330 --> 00:06:52,780
Antioxidants are molecules that give off electrons that help maintain the integrity
of your cells.

83
00:06:53,320 --> 00:07:00,280
Antioxidants help to prevent cholesterol from oxidizing oxidized cholesterol is
what poses the danger.

84
00:07:00,370 --> 00:07:02,890
It's very damaging to the cholesterol cells.

85
00:07:03,550 --> 00:07:06,700
Oxidation is the result of a normal body process.

86
00:07:06,700 --> 00:07:11,790
But if something triggers an overproduction of oxidized cholesterol, it can be
dangerous.

87
00:07:12,220 --> 00:07:18,760
Your immune system may mistake oxidized cholesterol for bacteria as your immune
system then tries to

88
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:19,690
fight it off.

89
00:07:19,870 --> 00:07:23,110
This can cause inflammation inside of your arterial wall.

90
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:27,420
This can lead to atherosclerosis or heart disease.

91
00:07:27,910 --> 00:07:33,760
There are many recognized antioxidants, but one of the most well-known is vitamin
E.

92
00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:40,330
Study after study has shown that vitamin E is a potent antioxidant that can help
prevent and even treat

93
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:41,950
free radical damage.

94
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:50,030
Factory farming versus organic foods, if you've been following the news, you've
probably already heard

95
00:07:50,030 --> 00:07:56,360
the phrase factory farming, this term refers to the type of farming business which
keeps animals at

96
00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:03,530
high stocking densities and uses modern technology to facilitate faster animal
growth, lower illness

97
00:08:03,530 --> 00:08:06,620
and death rates and higher production outputs.

98
00:08:07,130 --> 00:08:11,600
Many people, particularly business owners and investors, think that factory farming
is one of the

99
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:16,290
best innovations of the modern times and has solved numerous problems in the
society.

100
00:08:16,460 --> 00:08:22,010
However, there are also those who say that factory farming is harmful to the
environment as well as

101
00:08:22,010 --> 00:08:24,260
to the health of both animals and humans.

102
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:30,650
Poor quality ingredients and sometimes questionable processing and preservation
methods are used.

103
00:08:31,310 --> 00:08:37,000
On the other hand, the term organic refers to the way agricultural products are
grown and processed.

104
00:08:37,430 --> 00:08:43,550
While the regulations vary from country to country in the U.S., organic crops must
be grown without

105
00:08:43,550 --> 00:08:48,380
the use of synthetic pesticides, bioengineered genes or GMOs.
106
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:56,660
Petroleum based fertilizers and sewage sludge based fertilizers, organic livestock
raised for meat,

107
00:08:56,690 --> 00:09:02,420
eggs and dairy products must have access to the outdoors and be given organic food.

108
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:08,030
They may not be given antibiotics, growth hormones or any animal byproducts.

109
00:09:08,450 --> 00:09:14,600
Hence, organic foods are more nutritious and much safer, which may translate to a
healthier body that

110
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:16,970
is able to absorb healthy nutrients.

111
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:25,000
Detox, the real story, our bodies, if given the raw materials needed, are very good
at detoxing

112
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:31,180
themselves, people who have a healthy, wholesome diet and refrain from indulging in
too many processed

113
00:09:31,180 --> 00:09:34,390
foods will enjoy renewed energy and heart health.

114
00:09:34,780 --> 00:09:40,150
A small amount of processed food is not ideal, but the body can deal with it if not
overloaded.

115
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,410
Meditative cures, reflexology and mindfulness.

116
00:09:45,070 --> 00:09:51,400
Psychological risk factors, including anxiety and depression, are clearly factors
that can have a

117
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:52,990
substantial effect on the heart.

118
00:09:53,530 --> 00:09:59,230
Stress can affect and increase the risk factors for heart disease and high blood
pressure, especially
119
00:09:59,290 --> 00:10:03,400
if coupled with physical inactivity and a person being overweight.

120
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:12,010
Meditative cures meditation can reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack and death
by around 50 percent,

121
00:10:12,220 --> 00:10:14,010
according to a new clinical trial.

122
00:10:14,530 --> 00:10:21,460
Scientists found that mental focusing and relaxation can be just as effective as
the new super drugs

123
00:10:21,490 --> 00:10:22,750
that treat heart disease.

124
00:10:23,110 --> 00:10:28,150
Balance may sound intangible, but there are chemical markers for every benefit.

125
00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:34,540
The meditation brings the negative effect of stress on the heart, as well as the
recovery process from

126
00:10:34,540 --> 00:10:39,520
stress, is driven by the production of hormones and neurotransmitters throughout
the body.

127
00:10:39,850 --> 00:10:46,510
Meditation has been found to be a powerful means of rebalancing and regulating
these biochemicals.

128
00:10:47,170 --> 00:10:52,390
Mindfulness is about training yourself to pay attention in a specific way.

129
00:10:53,290 --> 00:10:59,890
In general, mindful people are more aware of the present moment and observe their
thoughts, feelings

130
00:10:59,890 --> 00:11:03,490
and behaviors without judging them as good or bad.

131
00:11:03,910 --> 00:11:08,890
They tend to disagree with statements like I find it difficult to stay focused on
what's happening in
132
00:11:08,890 --> 00:11:14,520
the present or I could be experiencing some emotion and not be conscious of it
until some time later.

133
00:11:15,190 --> 00:11:20,710
Studies have demonstrated that individuals who are naturally mindful tend to have
healthier hearts and

134
00:11:20,710 --> 00:11:22,570
a reduced risk of obesity.

135
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:27,340
Reflexology appeals to many people because it's non-invasive.

136
00:11:27,550 --> 00:11:30,730
The only clothes to be removed are shoes and socks.

137
00:11:30,940 --> 00:11:33,550
The hands, as well as the feet can be worked.

138
00:11:33,550 --> 00:11:38,530
And this allows discrete, self-help, relaxing techniques to be applied at any time.

139
00:11:39,310 --> 00:11:46,750
Reflexologist are trained to help balance the mind and body and to maintain this
state of homeostasis.

140
00:11:46,750 --> 00:11:48,550
The body needs to run smoothly.

141
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:52,630
When there is a malfunction in the body, it's thrown off balance.

142
00:11:52,930 --> 00:12:01,120
Reflexology helps to sustain a natural equilibrium in every gland organ, muscle
tissue and cell in

143
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:08,980
the body through stimulation of pressure points called reflexes on the hands and
feet to relax and invigorate

144
00:12:08,980 --> 00:12:15,640
your heart muscle, Reflexologist suggests that you focus on the heart, colon and
pituitary gland reflexes

145
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:16,450
on your feet.

146
00:12:17,260 --> 00:12:19,960
Try working these reflexes with your hands or feet.

147
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:22,810
Solar plexus, diaphragm and chest.

148
00:12:22,810 --> 00:12:28,000
Lung, heart and shoulder, arm, neck, thoracic and cervical spine.

149
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:32,740
Intestine with emphasis on sigmoid colon and adrenal gland.

150
00:12:33,370 --> 00:12:35,740
Superfoods for heart health.

151
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,170
There are a lot of foods that have the properties to dramatically help with heart
health problems,

152
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,020
mainly because they are very rich.

153
00:12:44,020 --> 00:12:49,600
Sources of the nutrients and compounds that naturally purify arteries cleanse and
remove inflammation

154
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,880
as well as boost the immune system.

155
00:12:52,330 --> 00:12:58,810
Avocado's are very high in healthy fats and if eaten regularly, their compounds are
able to normalize

156
00:12:58,810 --> 00:13:04,210
and stabilize blood cholesterol levels, maintain clear arteries and eliminate
clots.

157
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,170
Asparagus has found to be a very effective blood cleanser.

158
00:13:08,410 --> 00:13:12,520
It's able to reduce blood pressure and slow the forming of blood clots.
159
00:13:12,790 --> 00:13:16,900
