February is National Heart month to awareness to heart disease the number one killer among Americans. It seems that lately there has been more noise about cardiovascular disease since the passing of Tim Russert. Hypertension one of the causes is sometimes known as the “Silent Killer” since you cannot feel the symptoms. Reducing your salt and fat intake and excersing more can be a good start. There are many factors that lead to heart disease and getting your blood pressure and cholesterol checked regularly can be a key step in maintaining your health. Coronary artery disease which is what killed Tim Russert is often asympotmatic which means that you do not feel any symptoms. This is why it is so important to talk to your Dr. about risk factors and possible treatments if you have a family history of heart disease.
One of several treatment options that is out is EDTA oral chelation which is meant to help keep your arteries clean. EDTA which stands for ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid is a treatment. It helps in aid the body in ridding itself of various minerals and oxidative properties that cause havoc in the arteries.
