A Cadillac may operate perfectly when properly maintained, but if it is low on oil, brake fluid, has little anti-freeze, and has water in the gas, you could understand the effect that would have on proper operation. Likewise, the heart and circulatory system need certain nutritional factors to fuel the proper operation of the organs involved
Primary indicators of Cardiovascular symptoms:
Hands and feet go to sleep easily, numbness | Sigh frequently “air hunger” |
Aware of “breathing heavily” | High altitude discomfort |
Opens windows in closed rooms | Susceptible to colds and fevers |
Afternoon “yawner” | Get “drowsy” often |
Swollen ankles, worse at night | Muscle cramps, worse during exercise; get “charley horses” |
Shortness of breath on exertion | Dull pain in chest or radiating in left arm, worse on exertion (if heart attack ruled out) |
Bruise easily “black and blue” spots | Tendency to anemia |
“Nose bleeds” frequent | Noises in head or “ringing in ears” |
Tension under the breastbone, or feeling of “tightness”, worse on exertion |
Nutrition is essential to overall health! Feeding the body properly keeps our systems working well and working together. A deficiency within one system may cause an array of issues throughout the body.
