A heart attack usually occurs as a result of a blood clot that blocks a coronary vessel (= coronary arteries).
The coronary arteries surround the heart muscle like a ring and supply it with oxygen and valuable nutrients. Arteriosclerosis “vascular calcification” leads to a narrowing of the coronary arteries due to deposits (plaques) on the inner wall. This causes coronary heart disease (CHD) . Plaques can crack & break open, causing platelets ( thrombocytes ) to build up immediately to close the cracks. This releases messenger substances that attract more blood platelets & ultimately a blood clot (thrombus) forms. If this clot completely blocks the vessel in question, a heart attack occurs: The heart muscle, which is primarily supplied by this coronary vessel, no longer receives sufficient oxygen. The heart muscle section can then die within a few hours, in the worst case the patient dies (acute cardiac death).
Risk factors:
little movement
smoking
Prevention (Prevention):
healthy lifestyle
regular exercise
healthy body weight (normal weight: BMI 18.5 - 24.99)
Symptoms:
severe pain in the left chest area / behind the sternum
sudden severe shortness of breath
Feeling anxious to the point of fear of death: cold sweat, sallow complexion, cold skin
Feeling anxious: "as if an elephant was standing on my chest".
Loss of consciousness or feeling very dizzy
"Silent infarction" without pain, for example, often in diabetes mellitus (diabetes) & in the elderly
Symptoms in women may be different (nausea, dizziness , vomiting) than in men
Investigations:
EKG , heart ultrasound , blood tests, heart catheter examination
Treatment options:
Expansion of the constricted cardiac vessel (balloon dilatation) and installation of a vascular support ( stent ) as part of a PTCA, drug dissolution of the blood clot (lysis therapy), other drugs, bypass surgery

Causes:
usually a blood clot (thrombus) that blocks a coronary artery
Atherosclerosis (vascular calcification) of the coronary arteries (coronary sclerosis): Blood lipids, blood clots (thrombi) and connective tissue are deposited on the inner walls of the vessels. This reduces the inner diameter of the vessel, so that the blood flow is obstructed.
Why is nutritional therapy important?
Nutritional therapy supports you in counteracting arteriosclerotic changes.
Weight reduction is essential if you are overweight or obese. The significance increases if there are second or multiple diseases such as increased blood lipid levels, overweight / obesity, hyperuricemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus (metabolic syndrome). Just like a blood sugar level that is too high, too much cholesterol tends to narrow and harden the blood vessels. In order not to promote this arteriosclerosis any further, statins (CSE inhibitors) are often prescribed after a stroke.
Nutritional therapy supports you in reducing your symptoms overall and thereby positively influencing your health. An energy-adjusted wholesome diet under the supervision of a certified nutritionist can lead to your long-term success. The diet is adapted to your current weight and a jointly defined goal for weight gain / or loss.
The aim is to supply you with all of the fatty acids, micronutrients (vitamins & minerals), energy and protein as well as secondary phytonutrients & dietary fiber to the extent that your body is optimally supplied. For this purpose, foods that promote inflammation are specifically avoided and plenty of anti-inflammatory foods are consumed. An anti-inflammatory diet can improve your health and strengthen your immune system for more well-being and strength in your everyday life. You will learn how you can actively counteract inflammation through foods that naturally have antifungal (against fungi), antibacterial (against bacteria), antiviral (against viruses) and antioxidant as well as immune-boosting properties - that is, natural antibiotics.
Table salt: 5-7 g NaCl / day: 85-119mmol Na
Corresponds to the DACH reference values for nutrient intake for healthy adults;
Prevention basis; Basic therapeutic concept in connection with antihypertensive therapy.
(Low-salt diet: 3g NaCl / d; 51 mmol Na; strictly low-salt diet; nowadays of no importance as it is not practicable)
Potassium-rich food, 2-3 g K / day, possibly insert leap days (e.g. extended Kempner rice diet, juice and fruit day, raw food day)
Tip : Use plenty of herbs and spices to save salt and fat.
For acetylsalicylic acid or Marcumar therapy:
The risk of blood clots forming on the atherosclerotically changed vessels can be reduced by using acetylsalicylic acid or anticoagulants (e.g. Marcumar®).
By taking the medication must be in terms of fat soluble Particular attention should be paid to vitamin K. I will be happy to explain things to you in the consultation when choosing food and dietary supplements.
Blood count:
It is advisable to have your Omega 3 index checked regularly.
This provides information about the supply of valuable omega 3 fatty acids (alpha-linolenic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid), which can significantly counteract inflammatory processes in the body.
Classification of your weight - definition and classification of weight in relation to height.
Special percentile curves apply to children and adolescents; the BMI cannot simply be used here.
BMI and interpretation: BMI: body mass index. Formula: Body weight in kg : (body height in m) 2
Underweight: <18.5
Normal weight: 18.5 - 24.9
Overweight = pre-obesity: 25-29.9
Obesity grade I: 30 - 34.9
Obesity grade II: 35-39.9
Obesity grade III:> 40 = per magna
Nutritional therapy
Anti-inflammatory diet with moderate salt consumption and a selection of foods rich in potassium.
Holistic therapy - do you have any comorbidities that need to be taken into account during the consultation?
Body weight: Weight reduction is recommended if you are overweight / obese.
Avoid micronutrient deficiencies and mineral deficiencies & possibly counteract them with nutrient preparations
Prevent protein deficiency
Which nutrients do I need in which ratio?
Consume fiber according to the respective level (low fiber or high fiber)
Sufficient fluid: total fluid per day: 30 - 35 ml per kg body weight and day. Attention, this is not just a drinking liquid. The liquid from food (approx. 500 - 800 ml) must still be subtracted from this, so that an amount of 1.3 - 2 l drinking liquid is created.
add valuable anti-carcinogenic (anti-cancer) secondary plant substances
A selection of foods tailored to your needs with cooking and technical information (for breakfast, snacks, lunch, dinner)
