Arteries are life

'

Arteries are blood-carrying vessels that transport nutrients and oxygen to the rest of the body. In light of weight gain, inactive lifestyles, and obesity, the spike in cholesterol levels might deposit a layer on the inner lining of the arteries, which is commonly known as plaque. This build-up causes blood clots, coronary artery disease or Arteriosclerosis, and chronic conditions caused by a blockage in the carotid which can cause heart attacks, cardiac arrests, hemorrhage strokes, and other cardiovascular conditions.

Here are some drinks that can help detoxify blocked arteries: –

Ginger, Garlic, and Lemon
Boil mashed garlic and ginger. Strain the boiled water and add a squeeze of lemon juice to it. This is an excellent drink to clean your arteries. Have it anytime in the evening. Garlic reduces blood pressure and reduces the hardening associated with arteriosclerosis. It removes the soft plaque deposit from the vessels. The antioxidants in Ginger help in the prevention of plaque formation. Again, the citrus flavonoids in lemon prevent the clogging of arteries.

Cranberry Smoothie
Blend cranberries, bananas, yogurt, almonds, and orange juice. This blend of smoothies adds to breakfast. Replace cranberries with other berries like blackberries and strawberries. Cranberries are an excellent source of nutrients supporting artery and heart health. The flavonoid antioxidants in berries are known to reduce the LDL Cholesterol in the blood vessels. It also reduces inflammation and high blood pressure, which helps in artery health.

Wheat Grass Shots
Wheatgrass juice is the simplest and the most effective juice to remove toxins from the blood vessels. Rinse some wheatgrass and extract its juice through a juicer or blender. To begin with, you can start having a 30 ml shot every morning on an empty stomach and gradually increase it to 60 ml. You can add this to some other vegetable or fruit juice to make it tasty. It effectively removes heavy metals from the bloodstream and thereby aids in the health of the arteries. It is known to reduce bad cholesterol very effectively.

Citrus fruits like oranges have flavonoids that can decrease inflammation and help prevent free radicals in the body from oxidizing LDL (bad) cholesterol. Oxidized LDL is associated with atherosclerosis development and progression. Almonds, beans, and cruciferous vegetables are also seen to have properties that reduce inflammation, fight LDL and reduce the overall risk of clogging carotids.

Apart from this here are some Asanas to promote proper circulation and aid in unclogging the arteries: –

  • Parvatasana
  • Yashtikasana
  • Bhujangasana
  • Pranayama

The blood vessels are the channels for all exchanges within cells and organs. The health of the organs depends on the health of the arteries.
