Heart failure
Heart failure (also called congestive heart failure or CHF) is a condition in which the heart does not deliver enough blood to the organs to supply their need for oxygen. The heart still beats, but does not pump blood as well as the healthy heart due to damaged heart muscle, valves or both.
This is a serious condition and one should avoid self- medication. Millions of people suffer from this condition and their number is constantly growing. One of the reasons for this condition is that the arteries that supply the heart get narrower and the feeding of the heart poorer.
One good thing to be done is the prevention: healthy way of life, physical exercise and diet (First of all beware of the quantity of salt consumed). But once therapy is inevitable it shoud be carried out under the supervision of a qualified cardiologist.
Despite all that there are several substances that could be administered by healthy people and ones who want something supporting the main therapy: hawthorn leaf and flower extract, coenzyme Q10 and Magnesium.
