Heart Attack (Holistic)

About This Condition

Keep your lifelines clear and let blood flow freely to your heart. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
  • Trim the unhealthy fat

    Protect your heart and its blood supply by cutting meat, dairy fats, and foods containing trans fats out of your diet; fuel up with nuts, olive oil, fish, and other sources of healthy fats instead

  • Choose risk-reducing foods

    Eat more whole grains, beans and other legumes, vegetables, and fruit

  • Discover CoQ10

    Reduce complications following a heart attack by taking 120 mg a day of coenzyme Q10, a powerful antioxidant

  • Don’t forget the fish oil

    Reduce the chances of having another heart attack by taking capsules that supply a total of 900 mg of omega-3 fatty acids per day
