| Arteriosclerosis is an accummulation of plaque on the walls of arteries, also called hardening of the arteries. Major factors involved in the development of arteriosclerosis include a diet rich in refined oils and sugars, excessive amounts of animal products, too little fiber and plant-based foods, and stress. |
An herbal treatment program can include oils rich in essential fatty acids and monosaturated fatty acids, liver and bile-stimulating herbs, herbal antioxidants, and blood-thinning and cholesterol-lowering herbs. |
