Information on AnginaDescription Angina is a symptom complex resulting from mismatch of myocardial oxygen demand and supply. Classic angina is a sense of pressure or heaviness deep to the precordium, usually brought on by exertion or anxiety and relieved by rest. Anginal equivalent is characterized by exertional dyspnea or exertional fatigue which results from myocardial ischemia and is relieved by rest or nitroglycerin. Variant angina, also referred to as Prinzmetal's angina, describes angina occurring at rest of in typical patterns such as after exercise or nocturnally. Prinzmetal's angina is caused by coronary artery spasm and is associated with ECG changes (usually ST elevation) during symptoms. Unstable angina is characterized by pain which is new or which is changed in character to become more frequent, more severe or both. Unstable angina portends myocardial infarction in a certain percentage of patients. Causes Causes of angina include: atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries; Coronary artery spasm; Thrombosis; Aortic stenosis; Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; Primary pulmonary hypertension; Severe hypertension; and Aortic insufficiency Risk factors include: Family history of premature coronary artery disease (CAD); Hypercholesterolemia; Hypertension; Tobacco abuse; Diabetes mellitus; Male gender; and Advanced age. Conventional Labs Standard cardiovascular lab tests include Total cholesterol, and HDL and LDL cholesterol. An ECG may show evidence of prior myocardial infarction. Additional tests include Exercise stress testing; Radionuclide scintigraphy; Stress echocardiography; and Coronary angiography. Specialty Lab Tests Products to consider Natural Therapies Most natural health web sites put a list of herbs, vitamins and nutritional supplements along with citations from scientific studies. Have you found this to be confusing, since there are so many to choose from? A far simpler way is to choose a supplement from the appropriate body system, such as liver support, detoxification, etc. A well formulated supplement works a lot better than separate vitamins and usually costs a lot less. Please call me at (239) 659-2684 if you would like some assistance in choosing an appropriate product. I can't diagnose or treat diseases by phone, but I can assist you in making better choices. I also can send some relevant articles to read. The first ten minutes are free (as long as you purchase from my web site). |
The next step, after you have been diagnosed with a disease, is to find out what is the specific cause, and then choose supplements that address it. Phone consults are my specialty. Please call my at (239) 659-2684 to schedule a consultation.
I recommend that you make an informed choice, and the goal of this web site is to provide you with the information to make a wise choice when it comes to your health and wellness.
As you can see, I don't sell any vitamins on this web site. There are thousands of vitamin stores that will sell you whatever vitamin you want, and many of them offer discounts.
If you are interested in some high-quality basic nutritional supplements, I recommend visiting the Store You will find my recommendations for a multiple, tasty chewable fiber wafers, high-potency probiotics, and fish oils.
Good luck in your journey towards health and wellness!!
Unfortunately, that would be a clear violation of FDA regulations. Also, one of the most important aspect of naturopathy is: "Treat the person, not the disease". This is a profound statement, and many people have spent thousands of dollars on vitamins listed in books or web sites for a specific disease. This is what I call "vending machine medicine". It rarely works! The solution is to find a naturopathic physician, such as myself, to assist you.
