THE DIRECT CAUSES OF HEART DISEASE: The direct causes of coronary heart disease and heart attack are factors like these: – Narrowing of blood vessels in the heart and the rest of the body by arteriosclerosis. – High blood cholesterol level. – High blood pressure. – Over-weight. – Diabetes. – High level of the amino acid homocystein in the blood. – High content of low density lipoprotein (LDL) and low content of high density lipoprotein (HDL) in the blood. Lipoprotein is a combination of protein and fatty substances bound together. – Inflammation in the circulatory system. – High age. – Inherited tendencies for high cholesterol levels and heart disease. – Men have somewhat greater chance of getting heart disease than women. These factors are interrelated in complicated ways, and are causing or amplifying each other. For example, arteriosclerosis will cause higher blood pressure, and high blood pressure will cause even more arteriosclerosis. Many of these factors are ultimately caused or aggravated by these lifestyle factors: -A too high consume of fat, cholesterol and sugar. -Consuming the wrong fat types. -Lack of fibre, vitamins, minerals and other diet deficiencies. -Stress at work and in the daily life. – Smoking. -Lack of exercise. Lifestyle adjustments will therefore be the main methods of preventing heart failure. GENERAL DIET ADVICES: A diet with the aim of preventing heart disease is generally the same as a diet to prevent cancer and other diseases. Here are the general diet advices: – Avoid or reduce the amount of food that are industrially processed, artificially made or heavily fried. – Eat fish at least every second day. Also eat seafood and fouls. – Do not eat very much red meat. – Eat 5 fruits or vegetables each day. Each piece should be of the size of an apple or carrot. They should be raw or carefully boiled so that the nutrients are not washed out. – Eat full corn bread, full corn cereals, peas, beans and potatoes. – Eat just a moderate amount of fat. – Consume cholesterol rich foods like egg, spawn or liver in just moderate amounts. – Ideally most fat you eat, should be of the type mono-unsaturated. You also need some poly-unsaturated fat of the types omega-3, and omega 6, but not too much of omega-6. The consumption of saturated fat should be moderate. – In order to achieve right fat balance, much of the fat supply should come from a blending of sources like olive, olive oil, canola oil, nuts, nut oil, sunflower, sunflower oil, linseed oil (flax oil), fish and fish oil. – Use only a moderate amount of soy oil and corn oil in the diet. Only using such oil types will give you too much poly-unsaturated fat of the omega-6-type. – Use just a very moderate amount of fat sources like butter, coconut oil and palm oil. A high consumption of these fat sources gives you too much saturated fat. – Avoid altogether fat that has been chemically altered, giving so-called trans-fat. This type of fat is often found in margarine, cookies, snacks, fast food and other pre-made food. – Consume just a very moderate amount of sugar, refined flour or refined cereals. – Consume just a moderate amount of tranquilizers and stimulants like alcohol and caffeine. – Use just a moderate amount of salt in the food. However, in warm weather and by hard physical work, you will need more salt.
