Role of Ayurveda in treatment of Heart Related issues

Ayurveda is a discipline that can improve heart health and offer effective treatment for heart related issues. Several studies have proved the efficacy of Ayurvedic Treatment for Heart Disease. You now might be thinking about how Ayurveda can help in the treatment of health disease?

Presently people of every age are undergoing an unhealthy lifestyle with a low level of physical activity. Furthermore, a high intake of unhealthy, processed and packed foods is the leading cause of heart disease in India. This 'west inspired lifestyle' builds up cholesterol plaque in arteries, which restricts blood flow and causes heart disease.

Ayurvedic treatment for heart disease includes herbal preparations, specialized diet plans, yoga, therapeutic practices and pranayama. This form of treatment not only helps in controlling and reversing the symptoms but also eliminates causative factors of heart disease.

Effects of Ayurvedic treatment on Heart diseases

Reduces High Blood Pressure - Research shows that ayurvedic herbs like Amalaki, Jatamansi, and Sarpagandha help in increasing oxygen uptake by reducing the systolic blood pressure.

Enhances Blood Circulation - Poor blood circulation results in reduced blood supply to the heart, which results in ischemic heart disease. It is one of the most common types of heart disease, which causes the majority of deaths in India.

Ayurvedic practices like Hrid Basti improve local blood supply as well as reduce spasms of intercostals muscles. In addition to this, Ayurvedic herbal preparations that include Terminalia arjuna increases the force of heart muscle contraction to improve blood circulation.

Reduce High Cholesterol Levels - High Cholesterol level is responsible for health problems but most importantly, it leads to atherosclerosis which is thickened cholesterol plaque inside the arteries. An unhealthy diet and lifestyle cause a rise in ‘bad’ or LDL cholesterol while reducing the ‘good’ or HDL cholesterol level. Ayurvedic treatment for this heart problem includes therapeutic massage with oil that can even reverse atherosclerosis and cure the disease.

Improves Aerobic Function - Some specific breathing techniques and yoga asanas are quite helpful in improving the efficiency of the cardiorespiratory system. This improvement helps in curing heart disease as now the body has a more robust system that increases the heart's ability to pump the blood for improving oxygen supply and reduce cardiac risks.
