What are blocked arteries?
In some persons, plaque would build up along the arterial walls and this could lead to restricted flow of blood. It is also termed as atherosclerosis. Build up of fats, cholesterol etc is plaque. It must be noted that when plaque gets hardened and narrows the arteries then persons could get angina/chest pain, shortness of breath, heart attack etc. In severe cases, death could also take place.
Following these Ayurvedic remedies could clear blockage in the heart
By Eating according to the digestive fire or agni:
Our body would digest all the fats and calories we consume if we eat according to the digestive fire. Intake of wholesome food would prevent the formation of plaques on the arterial walls. It is worthy to note that when we eat as per the digestive health and body then no necessary fat would be formed and arteries won`t become clogged.
By controlling blood sugar by managing diabetes:
The arteries would face issues if we have high blood sugar levels in us. Not many would know that eating potatoes would raise our blood sugar levels more than consuming sugars. Point is that high glucose levels would ham the innermost part of arteries and extra fat is promoted on the walls of the arteries.
By lowering BP by means of Ayurvedic herbs:
There would be artery changes due to increase in BP. We would be able to maintain BP by cutting down on beverages like coffee and tea etc. Moreover, incorporating herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi etc would bring body and mind in equilibrium with relieving strain and maintaining good BP. The arteries would be kept intact.

By practising vyayama:
It is superb to note that when the arteries get stretched then we would not get heart bocks in us. It must be noted that when we exercise our heart would steadily contract and dilate and there would not be any accumulation of fats. Various exercises that could be done are cardio, weight training, stretching etc. It is believed that Vyama in Ayurveda cocould result in good arterial health.
By managing stress with herbs, yoga and meditation etc:
When there is repetitive stress, then our body`s metabolism and immunity would get less efficient. This can lead to more damage to arteries.
