I guess I’m back in today I want to talk about a discussion I had with a woman who had repeated heart attacks and she kept going the doctor and the arteries were clear she had no obstruction and she didn’t know what to do so she wanted some advice so I want to talk about what I told her okay first of all you have to realize that you can have a heart attack without having the obstruction to one of your arteries and that is called myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries okay nothing you need to know that but there’s two things that can happen number one is the actual heart muscle itself goes into a cramp or the artery goes into a spasm obstructing the blood flow to the heart muscle itself causing the heart attack now what I told her to do was do some research in the area of vitamin E deficiencies why because when you have a deficiency of vitamin E the need for oxygen in the muscle tissue especially in the heart goes up significantly okay so you don’t have oxygen there it starts to cramp you also can get necrosis which is breakdown of the heart muscle fibers with a vitamin E deficiency you have neuromuscular degeneration so the connection between the nerve and the heart muscle can degenerate that can create a big problem and another symptom you can have a vitamin E is you can have a myopathy which is a disease of the heart muscle itself in certain studies vitamin D deficiencies in the blood were significantly higher in angina cases and vitamin E is an antioxidant and it’s even carried by LDL which is so called bad cholesterol that’s carried to the blood vessel to actually provide healing for any lesions or oxidation that’s happening in the artery because vitamin E is a very powerful antioxidant it has functions for nerve conduction and neuromuscular control now how does someone become deficient in vitamin E well the biggest way is just to consume a lot of refined carbohydrates in the form of breads pasta cereal crackers it’s things like that okay normally the grain is loaded with vitamin E it’s in the wheat germ but when you grind the grain and you expose it to air and you basically oxidize all the vitamin E so when you consume those products you create deficiencies in your body so I don’t recommend you get your vitamin E from grains even whole grains I recommend you get them from the leafy greens and sunflower seeds things like that or go to the health a store and get a vitamin E complex don’t use a synthetic version okay you get the complex because vitamin E comes in many different parts and the exact fraction of the vitamin E complex that helps angina is vitamin E to that fraction and I don’t even recommend just taking that get the whole complex and take that especially if you have symptoms of angina or anything related to heart be very very important one additional note I want to bring up when a woman goes through menopause she loses the function of the ovaries okay now the pituitary doesn’t have to work as much because it’s not sending signals down to the ovaries anymore so what could happen the need for vitamin E goes down so the pituitary is not storing vitamin E as much and this could be one of the reasons why women are at greater risk for heart attack after menopause than before menopause and what’s also interesting is when you take vitamin E in its complex form you can actually improve hot flashes okay what a coincidence so anyway there you have it do some research and vitamin E if you have any of these symptoms at all all right thanks for watching so if you want more knowledge on how to create a healthy body subscribe now and get daily notifications daily notifications that sounds weird well I’ll just remind you on a daily basis how about that
