Coronary Heart Disease is also known as Coronary Artery Disease. Following hints from the name itself one can very well guess the nature of this disease which is related to the heart and coronary arteries that supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart. In this disease, the coronary arteries become clogged hence hampering the blood supply up to the heart and thereby denying the heart its fair share of oxygen ant other vital nutrients.

This clogging or blockage in the arteries is caused by accumulation of fatty deposits on the inside lining of the arteries. When the heart remains bereft of blood supply for longer periods of time, heart attacks could also occur.
Adopting natural home remedies for Coronary Heart Disease and bringing positive changes in the diet and lifestyle should help in the prevention as well as treatment of this disease.

Causes and Symptoms of Coronary Heart Disease
High Cholesterol, High Blood Pressure, Obesity, cigarette smoking, tobacco abuse, Diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and a genetic predisposition increase the risks of developing Coronary Heart Disease. Age is another factor that can neither be ignored nor controlled. Unhealthy high fat diet and lack of regular exercise or physical activity lead to Obesity which is the root cause of cholesterol and blood pressure related diseases which in turn cause heart diseases. Emotional stress and an impatient and aggressive nature are also harmful in the long run and contribute in causing heart diseases.

Angina is a chest pain characterized by chest discomfort, tightness, aching, heaviness, pressure, burning, numbness, fullness, or squeezing.

Different people have different degrees of the symptoms. At times, the disease might be there but the symptoms might not be manifested.
