CAD Full Form in Medical - #17663
Recently, a close relative of mine was diagnosed with CAD, and the doctors explained that it stands for Coronary Artery Disease. It was a shocking moment for us because we didn’t realize how serious the condition could be. From what I’ve learned, CAD is one of the most common heart diseases, where the arteries that supply blood to the heart become narrowed or blocked due to plaque buildup. This reduces blood flow to the heart, increasing the risk of chest pain (angina), heart attacks, and other serious complications. Since Ayurveda has a deep understanding of heart health and circulation, I’m wondering—does Ayurveda offer any natural ways to manage or even prevent CAD? I’ve heard that herbs like Arjuna, Ashwagandha, and Guggulu are beneficial for cardiovascular health. Do they actually help in keeping the arteries clear and improving blood circulation? Would regular consumption of heart-friendly Ayurvedic herbs help in reducing plaque buildup and strengthening the heart muscles? Another thing I’m concerned about is whether diet plays a role in CAD. My relative used to eat a lot of oily, processed foods and had a sedentary lifestyle—could this be the reason for developing Coronary Artery Disease? Does Ayurveda recommend specific dietary guidelines to prevent and manage CAD? Would switching to a diet rich in fiber, fresh fruits, nuts, and herbal teas help in reversing or controlling this condition? Are there certain foods that should be completely avoided to prevent further artery blockage? I also read that stress and emotional health play a major role in CAD. My relative has had a high-stress job for years, and I wonder if that contributed to heart problems. Does Ayurveda suggest any specific yoga poses, breathing techniques, or relaxation therapies that can reduce stress and improve heart function? Would daily meditation or Pranayama help in lowering blood pressure and keeping the heart strong? If anyone has experience managing CAD through Ayurveda, I’d love to hear what worked. Did herbal remedies, dietary changes, or Ayurvedic therapies make a noticeable difference? How long did it take to see improvements? I really want to explore natural ways to support heart health and prevent complications, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
