The world has moved ahead fast in the last three decades. But our bodies have not been able to keep up with accelerating technology. This has affected one of the most delicate parts of the human body — the heart.

Heart conditions and ailments are growing at an alarming rate across the world, in developed and developing countries alike. The biggest causes are stress and improper eating habits. They lead to uncoordinated pulses reaching the heart chambers, and can cause an abnormal heartbeat. Other reasons include an autoimmune disease which can be passed on from the mother in certain proteins through the umbilical cord, a birth defect, damage from a previous heart attack, and more.

Heart Blockage and Its Symptoms

Blockages limit the amount of oxygenated blood to the heart. This condition is known in medical terms as a ‘stable angina’ and makes the heart muscles ‘cry out.’ The results manifest through the below symptoms:

  • Dyspnea on exertion (shortness of breath)
  • Chest congestion and pain, as if someone sat on it
  • Palpitation and sweating
  • Giddiness
  • Heartburn, pain in the shoulder, back and hand (right or left side)…and more.

Three of Heart Blockages

  • First degree: This involves minor disruptions that are not grave in nature. Hence, they can be corrected without therapy.
  • Second degree: These occur when some electrical signals don’t reach the heart, leading to dropped or skipped beats. At such times, patients might need a pacemaker.
  • Third degree: These blockages occur when electric pulses do not travel between the upper and lower chambers. Without proper treatment, this condition can quickly deteriorate into a heart attack.

Until recently, angioplasty and bypass surgery were the only known forms of treating heart blockages. However, research from the American Heart Association, the Experimental Department of Cardiology, Germany, and the British Heart Foundation, has presented the medical world with a great gift — natural bypass therapy.

What is Natural Bypass TherapyIJ

Thousands of arteries lie on the heart’s surface in two forms — seeds and micro vessels (capillaries). Normally these arteries don’t open up in people. But that doesn’t mean all hope is lost. By creating certain situations, the arteries in seed-form open up, as do those in the micro vessels form. This process immediately improves blood flow towards the heart and is known as natural bypass.

How to Take Care of Your HeartIJ

Heart blockage doesn’t always need treatment. To avoid or treat first-degree heart blockage, you can take the following steps:

  • Consistent exercise, especially yoga. This keeps the flow of oxygenated blood to the heart steady.
  • Maintain a diet. Form good eating habits and avoid junk (and fried) food. Stick to traditional Indian food according to your region because it’s best for your body and is science-based.
  • Avoid stress. Spend time with your family, laugh with them, and take out time to do relaxing manual work like gardening.

It’s best to consult specialists for second and third-degree heart blockages. Consistent exercise, maintaining proper diet and avoid stress to live a healthy life. Your heart and your brain are the two most important parts of your body, as they govern all other functions. Take good care of them.
