What is angina?

Condition analysis:
Angina is discomfort or pain you feel in the chest or areas around it (arm, shoulder, back, neck, or jaw) when the heart is not getting enough oxygen. Angina is not a disease. It often is a symptom of a heart problem. The heart problem that most commonly leads to chronic angina is coronary heart disease (CHD).

Instructions:
Choose Veggies: Avoid mutton, since it is very rich in cholesterol. Similarly, the consumption of dairy products should be reduced. If you adopt a diet with less fat and food with less cholesterol, you can reduce a lot of the minor symptoms of angina pain. Also, eat more vegetables! Green vegetables not only control angina but also help to maintain overall health.

Lemon: This is the simplest home remedy for angina patients. Try to include one lemon in your food each day. You can squeeze it over salads or have it as fresh lemon water. Lemon helps you avoid the accumulation of cholesterol, thus preventing any sort of blockage in the blood vessels. It is a natural deterrent for angina and angina patients should include lemon in their daily diet whenever possible.
