Hi, Recently on 1st Aug'16, I had been been thru angioplasty due to 100% thrombosis in my right artery. Currently I am on blood thinners like Ecosprin & Eliques. I have read that Aspirin derivatives should not be taken for too many years and all life style management methods to be tried to recover from the need of blood thinners. Pl suggest what changes can be adopted for recovery in long run ie which exercise/diet or any other solution. Detailed reply will be appreciated.

We are specializing in Integrative non-invasive treatments for reducing blockages, prevention of restenosis (reoccurring blockages), and regaining health. These include lifestyle management, detoxification, stress reduction, revival of performance, stamina and heart health. Few tips you can follow on your own are as follows: Consume pomegranate atleast 3 times a week. This is a powerful blood vessel repair food. Cause of blockages begins with an overload of Oxidative free radicals, unwashed toxins in the system; so a customised detox should be high on priority. This should be done under qualified supervision, and can be undertaken immediately after angioplasty also. Cholesterol is an essential, integral part of body metabolism and more than 85% is manufactured in the liver. Maintaining Liver health is vital for Heart health. Cow Ghee as shown very beneficial results. Resist alcohol, tobacco in any form and quantity. Alkaline foods will help repair many tissue needs. Keep a healthy intake of probiotics (dahi and chaash) that aid in nutrition uptake and good gut health. Mindful meditation will stimulate the body towards self haling, even if slowly, it will happen surely. Most important, learn under guidance all the above; reading from a book does not correct errors, if any.
