Instructions

• 1

  Begin by taking one Mega-Chel tablet twice a day for the first week, preferably one in the morning with breakfast and one in the evening with dinner. Increase the herbal supplement intake by one the second week and by one the third week. In the third week, you should be taking three tablets twice a day. Maintain this level of activity for three months. Afterward, gradually ease off of the supplement.

• 2

  Eat whole grain cereal or toast for breakfast, along with a peace of fruit. This is a good fiber breakfast with vitamins and minerals. Resist the allure of donuts and sausages.

• 3

  Drink green tea instead of coffee. Green tea is full of antioxidants, which discourage fatty deposits from building up in the arteries. Pineapple, grape and lemon juices are other beverages to consider drinking throughout the day. These juices are rich in vitamin C and minerals.

• 4

  Start a morning workout routine. Regular 20- to 30-minute walks are wonderful activities for the heart. Such activity strengthens the heart muscle, increases energy and boosts confidence. Daily walks become increasingly significant as we get older, since the body tends to slow down. Other daily exercises include push-ups, pull-ups and jumping jacks. These are simple exercises that can be done throughout the day.

  Eat garden salads for lunch. Green foods such as lettuce, spinach and garlic are excellent for the heart because of all the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that fight against heart disease and cancer. For dinner, try eating portions of meat that contain Omega -3 fatty acids. Salmon, tuna and mackerel are great choices, improving circulation and thinning the blood. For snacks between meals, eat fruits and plenty of nuts. They help keep the heart vessels clean as well as prevent heart disease.
