Congestive Heart Failure

Congestive Heart Failure is a syndrome wherein the heart cannot adequately pump blood through the circulatory system anymore, thus reducing the blood flow to the different body organs.

Reduced renal (kidney) blood flow signals the kidney to retain water.  The retained water increases the load on the heart and further weakens it.  Since blood entering the heart from the veins cannot be pumped out effectively, edema (water retention) of the extremities, and sometimes even of the lungs, may result.  The heart enlarges and begins to beat more rapidly due to disrupted supply of nutrients and oxygen to the different body tissues brought about by inadequate pumping of blood.

Probable Causes
   • Cardiovascular disease
   • Hypertension
   • Kidney diseases

Probable Symptoms
   • Exhaustion even in simple activities such as eating
   • Malnutrition
   • Underweight

Note: Congestive heart failure may be left- or right-sided.  It ma also develop gradually or present suddenly with acute pulmonary (lung) edema.

Helpful Dietary Management
   • Limit sodium and fluid intake.
   • Lose weight if necessary to lighten the work of the heart.
   • Eat small frequent meals.  Eat foods that are least likely to form gas.

I am 58 years old, and was diagnosed with heart failure over a year ago. My main symptoms was fatigue, shortness of breath, and a general sense that these symptoms will keep me out of normal life activities, my symptom was not being able to breathe when lying down basically . I’ve kind of resigned to the fact that this is how life will be for me back until I found herbs that stop this CHF easily and relief all the airways. My wife and her caregiver assume I can't be as active, and thus I was excused from normal life responsibilities but natural herbs from totalcureherbsfoundation. com really helped a but sometimes I think is God prodigy that I was able to treat my congestive heart failure but total cure herbs foundation herbal formula has a big impact on my recovery because my heart condition has been fully eliminate. They do things for me, and was too happy to comply with their service. This is a equitable of a way to get of your heart failure.
