7 Simple Ways You Can Unclog Your Arteries Naturally

Best Healthy Page September 20, 2016

Arteries are the blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood. They are muscular tube lined by tissue consisting of three layers, the inner, middle and outer layer.

7 Simple Ways You Can Unclog Your Arteries Naturally

When the inner layer begin with accumulation of atheromatous plaques, deposits of calcium, fat, cholesterol etc., the lumen of the artery narrows and impedes blood flow. This progressive clogging of the arteries (loss of elasticity and thickening of the vessel wall) as a result of the creation of atheromatous plaques is known as atherosclerosis.

The most common reasons for the creation of these plaques are high level of bad cholesterol, low HDL (good cholesterol) and high blood pressure.

7 Simple Ways You Can Unclog Your Arteries Naturally

Asparagus

Due to the rich combination of vitamins and minerals such as K, B1, B2, C and E, asparagus is one of the best vegetables for purification of blood vessels. This vegetable lowers blood pressure and helps in combat against various cardiovascular diseases.

Garlic

Among many other health benefits, garlic lowers LDL (bad cholesterol) in blood and prevents the buildup of fatty deposits in blood vessels. The latest research shows that thanks to the substances which are released during digestion, blood vessels relax and blood flow is increased. Try to include at least few cloves of garlic in your daily menu.

Turmeric

Turmeric has strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and anticancer properties. Turmeric can be effective for treatment and prevention of malignant diseases, diabetes, allergies, arthritis, Alzheimer’s and other chronic diseases. Among many health benefits, turmeric also promotes normal functioning of the cardiovascular system and maintain normal blood circulation and reduce the levels of bad cholesterol and blood sugar, as well as reducing high blood pressure.

Olive Oil

Essential fatty acids in olive oil successfully reduces levels of bad cholesterol and increases the level of good cholesterol. Rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, substances that inhibit the buildup of fatty deposits in blood vessels, daily consumption of olive oil, in cooking or 1 Tbs in the morning is good for your arteries.

Pomegranate

This delicious fruit, which originate from Iran, has anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenic properties, and pomegranate phytochemicals reduce LDL oxidation, which is contributor to atherosclerotic plaque development. Pomegranate phytochemicals also reduce blood pressure.

Flaxseed

Flaxseed is one of the best sources of alpha-linoleic acid (omega-3 fatty acid). With the help of omega-3 fatty acid, flaxseed lowers blood pressure and purify the blood vessels from fat.

L-Arginine

L-Arginine boosts nitric oxide, a a powerful neurotransmitter, which helps blood vessels to relax and thus improves circulation. This may improve symptoms of clogged arteries and coronary artery disease. L-arginine, amino acid that is used in the biosynthesis of proteins, improves cardiovascular health, preventing high blood pressure, improves blood flow in people with clogged arteries and also lowers high cholesterol.
L-Arginine can be consumed through dietary supplements and also can be found in turkey, chicken, pork loin, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, soybeans etc.
