Hawthorn Combo Tincture

The cardiovascular system is made up of the heart and blood vessels. Blood is pumped by the heart and circulated throughout the body via the blood vessels. Cardiovascular disease is the leading health problem in the Western World and the number one cause of death in the United States, claiming more than 1 million lives annually.

An estimated 50 million Americans are afflicted with heart and blood vessel disease, although many do not know it because they have no symptoms. Heart disease can be prevented even if there is a strong tendency for heart problems in the family. The main cause for most heart problems is improper diet, eating too much meat and saturated fat, salt and sugar. Raw foods, fiber and wholesome, unrefined foods as well as physical activity are essential. Here are some recommendations to keep your heart healthy:

• Have a well-balance diet that contains fiber. Raw foods, broiled fish, skinless chicken and turkey.
• Avoid hydrogenated fats like shortening, margarine and commercially processed foods.
• Exercise regularly (walking, swimming, etc)
• Avoid smoking, coffee, alcohol, fried foods, and large meals.
• Add nuts (except peanuts), hemp, flax, pumpkin seeds, walnut oil, olive oil (unrefined and cold-pressed), pink salmon, trout, tuna, halibut, herring and mackerel to your diet.
• Get plenty of sleep and avoid too much stress. Learn stress-management techniques.
• Add garlic, onions and lecithin to your diet.
• Raw fruits and vegetables (an apple a day keeps the doctor away).
• Good juices for the heart are carrot, beet, celery and asparagus.
• Vitamin C, Ester C, and Vitamin E.
• Magnesium 600mg daily, and Coenzyme Q10 50mg three times daily.

Another way to prevent heart disease is with our Hawthorn Combo (Heart Drops) for angina pectoris, etc. This product has been formulated to balance and support the heart and circulatory system.
