The most common symptom people experience is angina, which is easily mistaken for heartburn or indigestion. Angina is the feeling of pressure or tightness in your chest, and it occurs when there isn't enough blood flowing to your heart. Other common symptoms include; difficulty breathing, numbness on one side of the body and palpitations.

10 Natural Remedies for Clogged Arteries 
 
 
1) The SMASH Fish Diet - SMASH is the acronym for sardines, mackerel, anchovies, salmon, and herring. Cold water fish contain a high level of omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce the bad cholesterol, fight off inflammation and promotehealthy hearts. 
 
Remedy:
  • You can select from any of the fish on the SMASH list and eat at least 2 servings per week. 
  • Garnish the fish with green leafy vegetables, such as spinach or kale.  
 
 
2) Cayenne Pepper - Cayenne pepper contains the powerful anti-inflammatory property of capsaicin, which is used to prevent oxidation, chest congestion, thrombosis and other heart diseases. 
 
Remedy:
  • Add 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to a cup of hot water. You can also mix a spoonful of the pepper into a cup of green tea, along with a bit of lemon juice and a squirt of honey. 
  • Drink the concoction twice daily for a few weeks.


 
 
3) Dark Chocolate - Good quality dark chocolate contains more antioxidants than a handful of blueberries. The delicious treat is high in fiber, iron and magnesium, all essential components to prevent atherosclerosis. Skip the processed sugary chocolates on the supermarket shelves and stack up on the darker, healthier version instead.

  • You can snack on a small piece of dark chocolate as a sweet  alternative to fruits, but make sure you keep the intake moderate, since it is high in trans fats.

  • Add a tablespoon of natural honey to enhance flavoring.

8) Flaxseed - Flaxseeds are high in alpha-linolenic acid, which protects against inflammation and allows blood to flow properly throughout the body, while keeping your arteries clear from blockage.

Remedy:
  • You can consume the rice with any of the SMASH cold water fish as a healthy side dish. 
  • Red yeast rice capsules may be substituted instead, but make sure you consult your doctor beforehand. The suggested dosage is 1,200 mg twice per day with meals. 
 
 
10) Pomegranate - Pomegranates are rich sources for vitamin C, E, and K. They also contain powerful antioxidant phytochemicals, which prevent plaque from building up in the arteries. 
 
Remedy:
