BETA-BLOCKERS FOR YR HEART: ASK NATURE

Based on the fact that cardiovascular diseases are prime in our modern civilized society, manifold synthetic beta-blockers are prescribed. With debilitating side effects. Fortunately, nature offers us  alternatives. Read on to learn more about.

THE PHILOSOPHY BEHIND

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) & validated also by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more than 80% of non-age-related premature deaths are the consequence of unsolved health issues. With heart failure leading this vicious cycle (followed by cancer).
 
Based on this background, usually synthetic beta-blockers are prescribed, to block certain hormones in the nervous system responsible for stress on the heart. In order to reduce high blood pressure and other cardiovascular health issues. Related to manifold debilitating side effects.   

NATURAL ALTERNATIVES – SCIENTIFICALLY VALIDATED 

Fortunately, nature got alternatives to replace the synthetics in terms of certain foods – no less powerful and without debilitating side effects. According to research at, inter alia, the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City, IA, and Drexel University in Philadelphia, PA.
 
With special reference to high blood pressure – and other cardiovascular health issues such as, inter alia:

• stroke
• irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)
• resting heartbeat (tachycardia)
• congestive heart failure
• coronary artery disease
• aortic dissection (tearing in aorta lining)

 
And additionally, based on this research, these natural blockers may even help with

• anxiety
• migraine
• glaucoma
• certain tremors
• portal hypertension

 
Just let’s pick some of those natural beta-blockers – scientifically validated:

Celery

With special reference to the compounds of apigenin and n-butylphthalide, this familiar vegetable, reducing adrenaline and noradrenaline, cuts down force of pumping blood throughout the body and blood pressure, accordingly. Thus reducing stress on the heart.

Garlic

ased on heart-healthy constituents like manganese, selenium, and vitamins B-6 & C, and the antioxidant allicin, according to the British Heart Foundation, it controls blood pressure as well. Scientifically verified, inter alia, in Australia at

• Torrens University in Melbourne
• University of Adelaide in Adelaide

           and the

• National Institute of Integrative Medicine in Melbourne

 Similar the situation with 

Pulses

such as beans, chickpeas and lentils. As their protein, fiber and potassium helps lowering high blood pressure.
​ 
According to research at, inter alia,

• Pennsylvania State University in University Park, PA
• Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, MA
• Cleveland Clinic in Lyndhurst, OH

           as well as following Canadian institutions:

• University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon,
• McMaster University in Hamilton,
• University of Toronto in Toronto
• St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto
• Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario in Toronto

 
With respect to fruit as a natural source of beta-blockers, the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) recommends

Hawthorn berries 

not only as a natural beta-blocker but also as a calcium-channel-blocker, diuretic, and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. 

Hibiscus

This herb is not only known in folk medicine to cut down high blood pressure but has been scientifically verified in this capacity at, inter alia, the American University of Beirut in Beirut, Lebanon and Qatar University in Doha, Qatar.
 
According to same scientific reference, also the spice

Saffron

is lowering blood pressure by relaxing/dilating blood vessels.

Vitamin B-6

as we find it, inter alia, in starchy vegetables, most fruits, poultry and fish, etc., is widening blood vessels in favor of our blood pressure.
 
According to the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH).
 
This U.S. governmental source also recommends

Potassium 

as an excellent natural blocker as we find it, inter alia, in foods like

• bananas
• low fat dairy
• coconut water

           and

• potatoes

 
is widening blood vessels as well and lowering blood pressure, accordingly. 

L-arginine

This semi-essential amino acid can be found, inter alia, in different natural foods like, leafy green vegetables, poultry, nuts, and seeds.
 
According to research at, inter alia, the National University of Health Sciences in Lombard, IL, it can reduce both – systolic & diastolic – blood pressure in adults.
 
Not to forget about 

Omega-3 fatty acids

especially found richly in fish like salmon, trout, and herring, as they are  reducing the risk of heart disease in general.
 
According to the American Heart Association (AHA).

IN A NUTSHELL 

Based on the fact that cardiovascular diseases are prime in our modern civilized society, manifold synthetic beta-blockers are prescribed. With debilitating side effects. Fortunately, nature offers us  alternatives. Any risks and side effects involved with these natural beta-blockers? If consumed in a moderate way and if no allergies are involved, no risks and/or side effects are known. As demonstrated in this blog, scientifically validated.
