Arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis are defined as conditions which involve the eventual buildup of deposits, (plaque, calcium, minerals, and cholesterol) on the insides of the arterial walls which cause the thickening and hardening of the arteries. This debris can also become lodged within the arteries and slow or stop blood flow. The arteries become roughened, narrowed, thickened, blocked and inelastic (slow to react or change with increasing blood flow; hardened). In arteriosclerosis, for example, the deposits are composed largely of calcium buildups. Atherosclerosis, on the other-hand, consists of other fatty substances, like plaque, which may eventually block the arteries or reduce the flow of blood. Both of these conditions have about the same effect on your circulatory system. The symptoms usually include high blood pressure and can ultimately lead to angina (chest pains brought on by physical exertion), heart attack, stroke and/or sudden cardiac failure and death. Arteriosclerosis is a condition that occurs when the lining of the arteries (blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart to all the body’s tissues) thickens and hardens. The corollary (something that naturally follows) between arteriosclerosis and high blood pressure is that: Arteriosclerosis causes high blood pressure; high blood pressure can also cause arteriosclerosis. Arteries already weakened by high blood pressure can make blood pressure even higher. The insidiousness of arteriosclerosis is that arteries already weakened become prime targets for further accumulations or deposits. It’s a silent and deadly killer that usually only shows itself when significant symptoms occur like a heart attack or angina. Because these slow build ups do not necessarily stop circulation, symptoms of partially blocked arteries or reduced blood flow can be masked and go unnoticed. Traditional diagnostic methods are typically not used to detect this buildup until very late in its destructive process. Unabated, occluded arterial supply of blood to the brain causes stroke. Occluded arterial supply of blood to the heart causes heart attacks.
Atherosclerosis is a condition which can start in early childhood. You may wish to look up atherogenesis, the origin of this disease. Plaque formations begin to develop between the layers of the arterial wall even in young children and over time, progressively worsen as the child gets on in years. Due to the accumulative effect, it can lead to arteriosclerosis. Cholesterol fats, high blood pressure, high levels of glucose in the blood (diabetes), family history (genetics), hypertension, smoking, prolonged exposure to heavy metals and toxic elements in the environment can all be contributing factors to this disease. Atherosclerosis is a slow and progressive condition. When cholesterol, fat, calcium and other mineral substances build up in the blood, they can contribute to the formation of this plaque. There are two forms of plaque, Hard and Soft. Hard plaque can make the arterial walls hard and thick thus restricting blood flow. Soft plaque can break off and form clots within the arteries and again, form obstructions causing restricted blood flow. Older adults are at a much greater risk for this disease by the mere fact that older adults have lived longer and have been subjected to this degenerative process for a longer period of time.
Diseases caused by Arteriosclerosis and Atherosclerosis are responsible for “The” leading causes of death in the United States. Heart Disease is the Number 1 killer of both Men and Woman in America. In the US one out of every four deaths are cardio-related. Every minute of every day someone dies, or about 500,000 per year. Coronary Heart Disease affects approximately 13.2 million men and women. Your circulatory system is one of the most critical life supporting systems in your body for sustaining and maintaining your health. It supplies all the organs and tissues in your body with oxygen and nutrients. It carries away the waste products produced by your metabolism. The brain and heart require enormous amounts of oxygen to properly function. Senility and heart disease (often seen in older people) are usually caused by a decrease in circulation. Further, it is estimated that over 1 million Americans are disabled by “Peripheral Atherosclerosis” (affecting blood vessels in the extremities). In the early stages of Peripheral Atherosclerosis, the major arteries carrying blood to the legs and feet become narrowed by fatty deposits. Peripheral Atherosclerosis can not only limit ones mobility and enjoyment of life but cause the loss of a limb. Often, those who have diseased arteries in the leg or feet are likely to have them in the heart or brain.
(*) If you believe you have the onset of Arteriosclerosis, Heart Disease, Atherosclerosis or Peripheral Atherosclerosis, we encourage you to get a full medical examination by a competent medical professional.
Here’s a simple self-test that you can perform in your own home to determine how well your blood flows through the arteries in your legs. There are several places, on your extremities, this test can be done. Only use your index and middle finger as your thumb has a pulse of its own.
Blood tests, MRI scans, Angiography, Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) of the legs or feet, electrocardiograms (EKGs), and other tests can be done by a qualified physician to diagnose Atherosclerosis.
Start, with a proper diet and exercise program that best suits you. These are vital steps to take for a healthy body. Get onto a healthy diet plan limiting or cutting out all unhealthy fats (Trans and saturated fats), cholesterol. (The Mayo Clinics web site on Heart Healthy Diet – 7 steps to prevent Heart Disease is a good source. It can be found at: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/heart-healthy-diet/NU00196). Develop an exercise program that you can do and stick to it! Take daily walks, swim, jog, aerobics etc. Unfortunately, these steps alone cannot fully solve the problem of Heart Disease, Arteriosclerosis and Atherosclerosis. The source of this disease must be addressed, not just the symptoms. A healthy diet, exercise, along with an “Effective and Safe” Oral Chelation program is the answer. Provie’s Oral Chelation formula can help you Clear, Revitalize and Protect your cardiovascular system. Provie’s Oral Chelation contains EDTA (Ethylene Diamine Tetra-Acetic Acid) which is absorbed into your bloodstream and begins to chelate (bind to and remove from the body) toxic heavy metals and excessive mineral deposits. These toxins and mineral deposits are then naturally and harmlessly passed from the body. Provie’s Oral Chelation formula is different. It not only contains EDTA but 51 additional Vitamins, Minerals, Amino Acids, Glandulars, Herbs and special Trace Minerals to bolster the effectiveness of our Chelating Formula. There is no need to take additional supplements with Provie’s Oral Chelation. (See reference page on How Oral Chelation works.)
You have family and friends that love and care about you. They enjoy your company, your advice, the pleasure and gift of life you afford them and your comforting shoulder in times of need. Make the change today. There is help. Start Provie’s Oral Chelation therapy today.
