Heart Health and Detoxification
February is National Heart Health Month, making it the perfect time to learn about the importance of heart health and the heart’s fundamental functions. Proper heart function is vital to our everyday lives.
When you think of taking care of your heart, you most likely think about eating healthy foods and doing cardio exercises. You might not think about the effects outward variables can have on your heart. Did you know that the toxins we breathe in every day can damage your heart?
Keep reading to learn about how toxins threaten heart health and what you can do to keep your heart healthy.
Toxins and the Heart
We are surrounded by toxins every single day. There are toxins in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the products that we use on a daily basis. Not only does this exposure to toxins negatively impact our health, it takes a massive toll on the health of our cardiovascular system.
This can result in damage to the blood cells, veins, arteries, and the heart. The damage frequently leads to heart issues and the efficiency of the cardiovascular system decreases substantially.
The Importance of the Heart
It is extremely important to take care of your heart, as it is the primary organ of your circulatory system. The heart is responsible for pumping blood and delivering oxygen to other organs, making your heart the hardest working organ in your body.
When you do not take care of your heart, you increase your chances of struggling with heart related issues later on in life.
How do Environmental Toxins Affect the Heart?
Buildup on Arterial Walls
When you are breathing in environmental toxins daily, you can build up plaque on the walls of your arteries. When this happens, it decreases oxygen delivery and blood flow to the heart which may cause chest pain and shortness of breath.
Blood Pressure Dysregulation
The body’s natural ability to regulate blood pressure depends on the health of the heart muscle, arteries and blood cells. When environmental toxins damage these systems, blood pressure levels will increase, which can be dangerous. The heart beats faster to compensate for the high pressure levels, which can cause even more damage.
Blood Clot Formation
Environmental toxins can cause your red blood cells to die and release their clotting factor into your bloodstream. The clotting factor causes the other red cells to clump up in your veins and arteries. The blood clots can block blood flow or push through the arteries in the heart, causing extensive damage to that important muscle.
Health Issues at Birth
Environmental toxin exposure while pregnant can increase the risk of cardiovascular problems in infants. The toxins can hinder the formation of healthy heart tissue, leading to persistent health issues at birth.
How do I mitigate the effects of environmental toxins?
Many people are not aware of the various types of environmental toxins that surround them. Environmental toxins are naturally occurring compounds such as radon, cadmium, mercury and lead. This toxic buildup can lead to suppressed immune function, increased exhaustion, decreased physical performance and loss of mental clarity. It is important to remove toxins from your system on a regular basis. Here are a few ways to mitigate the effects of environmental toxins:
- Drinking plenty of water
- Eating clean, fresh and organic foods
- Regular exercise
- Daily detox supplements
