Heart attacks are often fatal. Eating heart healthy foods and other preventative techniques are recommended if you are in a high risk group. Heart attacks related to obesity, rather than stress, are common in Spring, starting mid-February, as the blood is naturally more viscous. Feelings of heaviness in the heart area, and shortness of breath may be signs that your heart is straining. Cholagogues can help decrease viscosity and richness in the blood during Spring Heart attack season.

Disclaimer: 'Heart Attack' could be serious and should be checked by a medical doctor.

ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE 4

HEART ATTACK IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE 4 - TISSUE DISEASE

If you have symptoms in this category it means your imbalances have overwhelmed your body's resistance causing a full-fledged disease. Once imbalance reaches this stage it is more likely to cause acute or chronic conditions. You might be tempted to focus your attention on fighting symptoms in this category, but dismiss earlier warning signs of imbalance - i.e. symptoms in the stage 1 category. It is ideal to find and address the root causes weakening your system and remove them first. This ensures you are not adding fuel to the fire of disease. Once the root causes are removed, you can work on addressing the disease head on along with strengthening your body. This typically yields a quicker recovery and prevents recurrence. Ayurveda's preventative approach suggests you pay careful attention to every stage of disease development.
