Heart disease prevention and new treatment options for coronary artery atherosclerosis
Download MP3In this episode of Optimal Health Weekly we discuss Heart disease prevention and new treatment options for coronary artery atherosclerosis.
Heart disease is a leading cause of death worldwide, and coronary artery disease is one of its most common forms. Coronary artery disease occurs when the blood vessels that supply the heart with oxygen and nutrients become narrow or blocked due to the buildup of plaque, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart. This can cause chest pain, shortness of breath, heart attack, and even death. Therefore, preventing and treating coronary artery disease is crucial for maintaining heart health and reducing the risk of heart-related complications.
Understanding these risk factors can help individuals make lifestyle changes and take preventive measures to reduce their risk of developing coronary artery disease. Lifestyle changes are often the first line of defense against heart disease. Several changes can help improve heart health and for some patients stem cells therapy can help reduce the risk of CHF.
In addition to lifestyle changes, medications can also be used to prevent heart disease and manage risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
