Heart Health

Irregular Heart Beat (tachycardia/arrhythmia)

Lack of magnesium is often implicated in heart rhythm irregularities and lack of magnesium is ubiquitous because our farming soils have lacked essential nutrients for decades due to the emphasis on petrochemical farming including non organic fertilisers, chemical sprays, broad acre farming techniques.

Dr Carolyn Dean is an expert in magnesium and contributed to the Magnesium ebook which can be found on our web site here: https://clcsa.com.au/index.php/mdocuments-library/ under the health tab

Heart Muscle

The Shute brothers, Canadian Medical Doctor brothers, did extensive investigation on the role of Vitamin E in heart health during the 1950s, the results were conclusive but suppressed by the AMA. Vitamin E at therapeutic levels assists the body heal heart damage resulting from a heart attack. But better still take it routinely and avoid heart attacks.

Hawthorn

Hawthorn is a herb which has been used for curing heart disorders for thousands of years.

Copied from https://www.herbalremediesadvice.org/hawthorn-uses.html

There is a long history of hawthorn uses as a food source among indigenous people in North America, and for centuries Europeans considered the hawthorn herb as one that maintained the health of the heart, helped with digestion and, during the Middle Ages, was used for sore throats, insomnia, and as a diuretic.

''Modern research supports regular hawthorn uses as an herb that relaxes and repairs vascular walls, reduces blood pressure, positively affects cholesterol, relieves shortness of breath and fatigue and, specifically, assists people who live with mild levels of congestive heart failure. (Note: Always work with a health practitioner when considering the use of herbs to help with a diagnosed condition, and people taking pharmaceutical drugs should always check with their doctor or pharmacists for possible drug-herb interactions.)''

Heart Health and Vitamin C/ Deplaque arteries

In 1950s Dr Fred Klenner used Vitamin C to cure everything including polio, poisonous snake bite amongst many other things. He wrote hundreds of papers but was completely ignored by the medical profession which was already in the grip of the Rockefeller pharmaceutical industry.

A good paper discussing Klenners work is on Andrew Sauls web site: http://www.doctoryourself.com/klennerpaper.html

Dr Thomas Levy and Dr Robert Cathcart both extensively promoted Vitamin C for heart health, a good source of information is: https://vitamincfoundation.org/

Recommended Daily Allowances (RDA) of Vitamin C are far below that required to be healthy. In fact the RDA for humans is less than the RDA to keep a healthy guinea pig!

Vitamin C is an essential building block required for collagen production. Every tissue in our bodies requires healthy levels of Vitamin C, muscles, tendons, skins, internal organs, bones! Vitmin C is an essential anti oxidant and is called on heavily to fight free radicals in our bodies which result from all forms of stress physical and mental, healthy Vitamin C levels are always required and astronomically more so when combating heightened stress.

Humans are one of five creatures on the planet that does not generate vitamin C internally, others are primates, fruit eating bat, guinea pigs and most fish.

Scurvy is the most acute form of vitamin C deficiency when the collagen is so poor that our capillaries, veins and arteries are porous and can not hold our blood so that we bleed into our tissues. At this stage gums are very loose and teeth fall out, death is around the corner. But there are many stages of decline between good collagen levels and scurvy. Gum disease is often cited as an indicator or loss of collagen and insightful dentists will recommend 4grams of Vitamin C per day to keep gums in good heath.

Dr Linus Pauling recommended therapeutic levels of vitamin C be taken with Lysine, this combination would assist a person to de-plaque their arteries and to re build collagen throughout the body. Dr Pauling lived throughout most of last century and became a world famous chemist, the only person ever to win two Nobel prises singularly, ie not in a team. One was for chemistry and one was for world peace.

Hickey and Roberts report that Vitamin C has a half life of 30 minutes so you are better off to have low doses of Vitamin C every 30-60 minutes rather than a large dose once a day.

Tower Laboratories in USA is committed to providing the Pauling therapy in high quality supplementary form: http://www.towerlaboratories.com/

Did you know that cholesterol is described as natures bandaid and the body generates cholesterol to cover wounds in arteries. Building plaque in arteries is the bodies defense mechanism and can be reversed by addressing the deficiency issues which led to the decline in artery health in the first place.

Statin drugs

Statin drugs are promoted by pharmaceutical companies and medical doctors who do not alert patients to the serious adverse reactions arising from the use of statins. These side effects get worse when statins are used in the elderly where 60-80% develop memory loss and confusion resulting in diagnosis of dementia where in fact the individual is demonstrating a side effect to the drug and removal of the drug is the best course of action.

Did you know that vitamin B3 is an effective statin for the lowering of cholesterol and is natural.

Many cardiologists are now talking out against the hysteria about high cholesterol. Dr Stephen Sinatra (cardiologist) says that the use of statins to artificially lower the cholesterol level is causing an epidemic of alzheimers and dementia. The brain needs fat and it is said that in fact the brain is actually 80% cholesterol. There is evidence that adding organic coconut oil to the diet of a dementia patient can improve their brain function markedly.

An excellent interview with Stephen Sinatra, cardiologist can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=11PC8AFrh5w

An excellent resource about pharmaceutical drugs and whether they are killing you or not is “Are Your Prescriptions Killing You” by Armon Neel, covers statin drugs very well.

Another reference, amongst many, can be found here: https://www.foodmatters.com/article/vitamin-b3-for-lowering-cholesterol-safely-does-it-work

Another good information resource is: http://orthomolecular.org/

Orthomolecular is a term coined by Linus Pauling and Abram Hoffer and means the right amount of the right nutrients to achieve health. Much false information is put out by the AMA and partners about the toxicity of natural medicines. However what is true is that the medical and pharma industries are somewhere between the number 1 and number 3 killer of humans. Refer to the article Death By Medicine (http://www.doctoryourself.com/deathmed.html) written in 2003 but we can expect that these statistics are even worse today
