Juices made from apples or purple grapes - and the fruit themselves - protect against developing clogged arteries, a study suggests. Hamsters were fed the fruit juice, the equivalent of 4 glasses a day for an average size person, or water plus a fatty diet and the little animals that consumed the juice had a lower risk of developing artery problems. Hamsters to people is a big leap but the researchers say their findings suggest the amount of phenols contained in a food have a direct effect on its antioxidant properties and thus have a significant public health relevance. via BBC  Tags: antioxidents, apple juice, clogged arteries, food, grape-juice, grapes, health, heart-disease, Hearty Diet, purple grap...

That decision lies between you and your doctor, but according to this article, drugs may work as well as the popular procedure at unblocking clogged arteries. In fact, angioplasty is one of five surgeries the author thinks most people should avoid. Others include hysterectomy, lower back surgery, and heartburn surgery. Instead, the author suggests non-surgical alternatives that may work as well or better than surgery.The angioplasty vs. drug debate is one that's been in the headlines for a while, and a quick Google search turns up enough conflicting findings to make a person's head spin. But before you go under the knife for any procedure, it's worth your time to investigate alternatives and make sure you're making the bes...

Experts are somewhat surprised to discover this effect since beta-blockers were never intended or designed to impact the inflammation and cholesterol that contributes to blocked arteries, and in some cases have even been known to worsen certain cholesterol counts. Nevertheless, the data is there to show that somehow they're helping -- and if science can learn how we'll be in even better shape.Read | Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments (Source: The Cardio Blog) The Cardio Blog blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=716549 Thu, 05 Jul 2007 04:00:00 +0100 716549
