The heart is the first organ to receive nutrition. How it beats and its strength or weakness comes from getting the right nutrition. When you are lacking B vitamins it can slow your heart, when you have toxins in the body the heart rate can speed up trying to filter things out of the blood. When you have sensitivity to food the heart can race. We have been taught many misconceptions of foods such as fats and cholesterol and their impact on the heart by bad science since the early 1900s.
Your heart is what pushes and pulls the blood getting the nutrition to the rest of the body. The heart is the conductor of this system, nutrients travel in the blood to be delivered much like us getting on a train or bus to reach a destination. What is brought into the body through digestions, hopefully, is broken down by enzymes, bile, and stomach acid, which is then pushed into the bloodstream. It is then pushed to the heart then taken to the heart and pushed back out into the body. The heart and the beats of the heart can say a lot to us about nutritional deficiencies.
Lacking good blood flow strains the heart. Having congested blood is part of this strain on the heart, which can come from calcium not being delivered, incomplete proteins, and fats not emulsified. Your heart is a large muscle, if you struggle with muscle building or even muscle cramping you should want to understand how to strengthen the muscles and calm the cramping as what is happening to your muscles can be impacting the heart.
We need to have good muscle contraction, healthy vessels, and proper nourishment to support the heart. We have been taught that fat is bad and causes heart disease when in most cases it is about the sugar you eat that clogs the liver and damages the arteries that are causing blockages impacting blood flow and heart.
Cholesterol has been deemed the bad guy for clogging the vessels. Yet cholesterol is patching the issue that the sugar caused. Calcium needs guidance or does not know where to move, it is often guided by the fat of fat-soluble nutrients. It is bumping around without a driver and then gets stuck to the cholesterol that was trying to repair damage in your vessel walls.
Then we have issues with a high plant-based, highly-processed diet that congests blood because it cannot complete itself and waits in the blood to have the rest of what it needs. High sugar and processed foods rob our body of B vitamins, congest the blood, clogs the liver making the heart's job even more difficult. We have many who attempt to then get their B vitamins from a plant that is not effective enough.
Nutrition has a large impact on the heart Dr. Royal lee In this 1953 article, details the common signs and sounds your heart makes when it’s struggling. Unsurprisingly, in cases of extra heartbeats, murmurs, and shortness of breath, the culprit is vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
Instead of turning to nutrition often people turn to surgery and medications. I believe in all situations you should first try a good dose of high-quality nutrition and make sure digestion is functioning. I will be going over the main nutritional supports throughout the month.
