Vitamins For A Healthy Heart

 

Vitamins, as we all know, play a critical role in maintaining heart health. You need to eat the right foods of course, although you also need to supplement the food you eat with the necessary vitamins your body needs to stay in shape and keep your heart working healthy for a long time to come. If you don’t consume the right nutrients, you won’t be doing your heart any favours - and may end up having problems later on in life.

For most people, the first vitamin that springs to mind is vitamin E, which is crucial for strengthening your heart's general health. Vitamin E, when taken properly, prevents cholesterol in the body from hurting the arteries that surround the heart. When cholesterol oxidises, it adheres to the inside walls of arteries, causing blockages that can lead to heart attacks or other serious cardiac problems.

Most doctors advocate taking supplemental vitamin E supplements to help keep your heart healthy. They may also advise you to eat foods high in vitamin E naturally, such as almonds. Nuts are high in vitamin E and most of them taste delicious. Other foods contain vitamin E as well, though nuts have the highest concentration.

Vitamin E has been found in the past to aid patients who have previously experienced the effects of a heart attack. By opening up the arteries and removing blockages, this vitamin helps to avoid future heart attacks. Those who have experienced a previous heart attack are always advised to increase their vitamin E intake.

Many people are unaware that vitamin C can be used to enhance the effects of vitamin E. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that protects the body from the harmful effects of cholesterol. Vitamin C aids vitamin E in its activities, such as preserving your arteries and heart, in addition to preventing cholesterol from harming the body.

By taking both vitamin C and E as a combination, you’ll be well on your way to a healthier heart.  Overall, this is the easiest way that you can be sure you aren’t damaging your heart, especially if you have had a heart attack in the past.  If you have a history of heart disease or heart problems in your family, these vitamins are essential to your diet.  Even if you are just concerned about the health of your heart, these vitamins will give you the peace of mind in knowing that you are eating for a healthy heart.

Your dosage will vary from person to person, but for the most part, 400 international units of vitamin E and C are advised for most people. Vitamin C can be taken in big doses without causing any side effects when taken alone. It's safe to take 500 mg of it twice a day to keep your heart in good shape.

To be on the safe side, make sure you obtain the right number of vitamins in your food on a regular basis. Taking extra vitamins and supplements is also a good idea, especially if you're attempting to improve your heart's health. Because your heart is one of your body's most vital organs, you should always take care of it. You'll be well on your way to keeping your heart healthy if you eat the right foods and take the right vitamins.
