Risk of myocardial infarction due to high blood fat

Myocardial infarction is the world's leading cause of death.

Myocardial infarction is a condition of ischemia of the heart caused by one or more coronary arteries supplying blood to the heart being completely blocked, causing "death" of heart muscle cells.

According to statistics, myocardial infarction is the leading cause of death in the world, accounting for about 15% of all deaths each year. In our country, every year there are hundreds of thousands of patients hospitalized for myocardial infarction, the age is getting younger, many cases are under 30 years old.

When suffering from a heart attack, patients often have symptoms such as: chest pain, sweating, shortness of breath, pale skin, rapid heartbeat... Emergency treatment for patients with heart attack is like "racing against death" because the first 2 hours from the onset of symptoms is the "golden time" for intervention. The sooner a patient is treated, the better chance they will have of surviving and limiting serious complications such as arrhythmia, heart failure...

Myocardial infarction is a dangerous complication of a number of diseases, including dyslipidemia (high blood fat). According to statistics, dyslipidemia contributes to about 56% of ischemic heart disease. Dyslipidemia occurs in about 50% of young people with acute myocardial infarction.

Medical experts explain that when blood fat increases, bad fat molecules stick to the blood vessel walls, and over time accumulate to form atherosclerotic plaques that narrow the blood vessels, reducing blood flow to the heart. If the atherosclerotic plaques break off and form blood clots that block the coronary arteries, it will cause a heart attack.

Lower blood fat, prevent myocardial infarction from herbs

High blood fat, if detected and treated early, will help prevent the risk of myocardial infarction. For people who survive a myocardial infarction, the recurrence rate is about 5 - 20%, so good control of blood fat indexes will also help prevent recurrence. Therefore, people should have regular blood fat tests to monitor cholesterol levels, and adjust their eating and living habits if the index is high.

To treat high blood fat, Western medicine often uses Statin to help reduce cholesterol quickly, but the index easily increases when stopping taking it. Statin can also cause side effects such as: liver cell destruction, increased liver enzymes, rhabdomyolysis, myasthenia gravis... To avoid unwanted side effects, many people tend to use herbal products to control blood fat.

Currently, two herbal extracts are highly valued in lowering blood fat and reducing the risk of atherosclerosis causing myocardial infarction: Bergamot (extracted from Mediterranean oranges) and liquid Nanocurcumin (extracted from turmeric).

Many studies have shown that Bergamot oranges contain flavonoids with a molecular structure similar to Statin, which helps inhibit the enzyme that synthesizes Cholesterol in the liver, effectively supporting the reduction of bad fat and increasing good fat. Compared to the use of Statin, Bergamot orange extract is safe, limiting the risk of side effects. This essence also prevents bad fat from accumulating in the blood vessel walls, reducing the risk of atherosclerosis.

Liquid Nanocurcumin has an absorption capacity 185 times greater than regular Curcumin, helping to lower blood fat, remove plaque in the blood vessel walls, support the enhancement of circulatory system function, and prevent blood clots from forming that cause blood vessel blockage.

Tam Binh Pharmaceutical Company has successfully applied Bergamot essence and Nanocurcumin in liquid form in Tam Binh Blood Fat Dietary Supplement. The product also contains 7 precious medicinal herbs: Gynostemma pentaphyllum, Cistanche, Lotus leaf, Alisma orientalis, Hawthorn, Achyranthes bidentata, Artichoke, which help reduce blood fat, cholesterol and triglycerides, and reduce the risk of atherosclerosis causing high blood pressure, stroke, and blood vessel hemorrhage.
