In Ayurveda, heart health is closely connected to balancing the body's internal energies, especially pitta (which governs metabolism and heat) and vata (which governs movement and circulation). For your husband, maintaining heart health would involve managing stress, supporting proper circulation, and promoting a calm and balanced mind. Since stress is a major contributing factor, focusing on practices that reduce pitta and calm the nervous system will be key. Meditation, pranayama (breathing exercises), and regular relaxation practices can help lower stress levels. Diet-wise, an anti-inflammatory, heart-healthy diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats (like ghee, olive oil, and nuts) will nourish the heart and balance excess heat. Spices like turmeric, ginger, and garlic are also known to support heart function. Ayurvedic herbs like Arjuna, which is known for its heart-strengthening properties, and Ashwagandha, which helps manage stress, can be beneficial when taken under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner. Regular moderate exercise, such as walking or yoga, will also improve circulation and overall heart health. It’s important to continue with his prescribed medications, but these Ayurvedic lifestyle adjustments can complement his treatment and help maintain long-term heart health.

Managing heart health, especially after such a significant event like a heart attack and stenting, requires a blend of medical care and lifestyle modifications. You’re already on the right path without alcohol and cigarettes. Let's chat about some Ayurvedic tips that might fit into his lifestyle.
Stress is a biggie, I tell you. Chronic stress can really mess up heart health. Try introducing some simple relaxation techniques. Meditation, maybe some pranayama (breathing exercises) like Anulom Vilom or Bhramari. These help calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve overall heart function. And do it regularly, like every day if possible, but even small sessions will help!
Diet is another important aspect. Encourage him to follow a heart-friendly diet. Ayurveda emphasizes the quality of food intake – fresh, seasonal, and less processed foods. Warm, cooked veggies with a dollop of ghee can nourish his heart tissues. Consider adding spices like turmeric and ginger, known for their anti-inflammatory properties. But, watch the salt.
Herbal support can also be an ally. Arjuna is a renowned heart tonic in Ayurveda. But remember, always consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner or his doctor before starting any herbal supplement, especially with his current meds.
Movement, keep it regular but not intense. Simple walking or light yoga according to his capacity can keep the blood flowing and support heart health.
And, maybe help identify possible sources of stress. Work? Personal life? Maybe gentle support or changes there can be valuable too.
Throughout all this, keep his doctors in the loop. They know his medical history best and can guide you on any necessary restrictions or adjustments. Managing heart health after an event like this is a long-term commitment, but with right care, he can likely make great strides in his health!
