The incidence of cardiovascular pathology in recent years has not only been growing steadily, but is also rapidly becoming younger. In this regard, the preventive focus of primary care physicians continues to be relevant to this day. This is achieved through adherence to the principle “it is easier to prevent a disease than to treat its consequences.”
In order to know how to strengthen the heart and prevent the development of its diseases, you should be aware of what the risk factors for their occurrence are. In this case, preventive measures aimed at preventing cardiac pathology, coupled with properly selected food products, and in some cases with medications, will have a beneficial effect on the heart muscle. Otherwise, Without eliminating risk factors that a person can influence independently, none of the medicinal plants will have the expected effect on cardiovascular system.
What are the risk factors for heart disease?
In addition to the main reasons that can cause the development of one or another cardiac disease (genetic disorders, heart defects, kidney pathology due to hypertension and others), the doctor needs to remember the development of cardiovascular diseases and assess the degree of risk in each individual patient. The patient, for his part, also needs to keep these factors in mind, and not forget that most of them can be easily corrected, and in their absence, the heart will remain healthy, strong and resilient throughout life.
The main generally accepted factors that can cause adverse consequences of cardiac diseases, and, in particular, significantly increase the likelihood of developing acute myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death, include the following:
- Gender and age have a direct relationship with the development of cardiac pathology - most often men over 40 years of age are susceptible to it. This group of patients needs to pay special attention to possible changes in fat () and carbohydrate metabolism (diabetes).
- Increased body mass index up to obesity (above 30 kg/m2), especially in combination with an increased level (above 5.0 mmol/l), promotes deposition in the inner wall of the arteries, which is most significant for the aorta and coronary (feeding the heart) arteries.
- leads to a negative effect of excess on the vascular intima, which, in combination with atherosclerosis, negatively affects the integrity of the vascular wall from the inside.
- characterized increased tone vessels, which leads to disruption of blood supply internal organs and to constant hard work of the heart.
- Bad habits– alcohol and smoking contribute to damage from the inside of the inner lining of blood vessels (intima).
What preventive measures will help strengthen your heart?
Everyone knows that healthy heart– the key to a long, happy and, importantly, quality life. In this case, quality means the existence of a person not only without unpleasant subjective symptoms, but also without the need to depend on daily medication for any heart disease. In order to strengthen the heart muscle and keep it healthy for many years, it is enough to regularly follow a number of simple rules regarding a person’s lifestyle. This is called the prevention of cardiac diseases. There are primary prevention, aimed at preventing risk factors for heart pathology, as well as secondary, aimed at preventing complications in an already developed disease.
First, let's look at the first concept:
So, primary prevention in cardiology, which allows you to strengthen the heart, is based on the following components - modification lifestyle, correct and rational nutrition, as well as adequate physical activity. It makes sense to talk about each of them in more detail.
Lifestyle correction
A person who thinks about his health in general, and about strengthening the heart in particular, must understand that giving up bad habits - the most important aspect in reducing the risk of developing cardiac pathology. Thus, smoking and alcohol cause increased heart rate, or tachycardia, and with constant tachycardia, the human heart experiences an increased need for oxygen, which is delivered to it through the coronary arteries. At the same time, the coronary arteries can already be changed due to atherosclerosis or diabetes. Therefore, the blood supply and oxygen supply to the heart of a person who smokes and abuses alcohol suffers, which leads to and can sooner or later become the cause.
Plays a huge role in the health of the body avoiding stressful situations V everyday life. The modern pace of life of people, especially residents of megacities, is often accompanied by high psycho-emotional stress. Hans Selye proved that stress has an extremely negative impact on the human body. And constant stress, repeated day after day, leads not only to disruption of the adrenal glands, but also has a direct effect on the activity of the heart and blood vessels due to significant release of adrenaline and cortisol into the blood, which contribute to an increase in heart rate and, accordingly, . First - sinus, and as the myocardium weakens and deficiency of microelements - more serious forms. In addition, there is a high risk of developing stress-induced diseases, including diabetes and some autoimmune processes. That is why many large companies currently use psychological relief rooms and conduct appointments with a full-time psychologist. If the patient does not have these activities at work, he should visit a psychologist or psychotherapist to create psychological comfort and maintain mental health.
Organization of the daily routine It was not for nothing that it was widely promoted back in Soviet times. During sleep, your heart rate slows down and your breathing rate decreases. Skeletal muscles Those who are at rest during sleep require less blood and oxygen, resulting in the heart working easier and the heart muscle experiencing less stress.
Therefore, to strengthen the heart muscle, a person must sleep at least eight hours a day. And those who are engaged exercise athletes - even more, to achieve full recovery of all body systems, incl. heart muscle.
Rational nutrition
Proper nutrition should not be confused with heavy, exhausting diets, with which the patient brings himself to severe starvation, and then short time starts eating everything again. A healthy diet means eating healthy products nutrition balanced in the amount of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. At the same time, “junk” foods are excluded, and the eating regimen should be regular, preferably at the same time, at least four times a day. The last meal is at least 4 hours before the night's rest.
Due to the fact that excess “bad” cholesterol is deposited in the walls of blood vessels and leads to the development and blocking of their lumen, it is necessary exclude and limit the following foods:
- Fast food, instant food, and any other products with a high content of animal fats, sugar and a high glycemic index,
- Fatty meats
- Fried dishes, fried in lard, butter,
- Saltiness, smokedness, spices,
- Confectionery,
- Limit your consumption of egg yolks to 2-4 per week.
The following foods are welcome:

Regarding patients with a predisposition to cardiac diseases or with an existing pathology, special mention should be made of limiting the daily intake of table salt (no more than 5 grams) and the volume of liquid drunk (no more than 1.5-2 liters).
Of course, it will be quite difficult for many patients to immediately give up their usual diet when they want to eat richer and larger foods. But it is still necessary to rebuild, since, even despite the absence of heart symptoms, the patient himself forms in his body a predisposition to cardiac pathology. For example, patients with diabetes have long been conditioned to think that diabetes is not a disease, but a way of life. It should also be the case for patients seeking to keep their heart healthy - they must clearly understand that lifestyle correction comes down to properly organizing your daily routine and comparing it with regular meals at the same time. Moreover food should not only be healthy and wholesome, but also varied and tasty, otherwise, such events will be perceived by the patient as a painful diet.
What foods are most beneficial for the cardiovascular system?
- Nuts. This product contains a balanced amount of vitamins and microelements that help strengthen not only the heart and blood vessels, but the entire body as a whole. The first place is firmly occupied walnuts Almonds have the second highest content of omega-polyunsaturated fatty acids, which help normalize cholesterol metabolism. Persons with an allergic predisposition should use nuts with caution.
- Berries and fruits. Pomegranate, apples, grapefruit, strawberries, currants, raspberries, cherries, cherries and rose hips are most beneficial for the heart. The beneficial effects of the juice and fruits of these plants are explained by their high content of vitamins, potassium, magnesium and iron.
- Lean meat and fish(cod, tuna, sardine, veal, turkey) are rich in protein and B vitamins. Oily fish “ noble breeds”, in particular, the salmon family, in turn, is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which contribute to better absorption of food. “good cholesterol” () and the removal of “bad cholesterol” (LDL).
- Vegetables. Avocados and pumpkin seeds, for example, are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids. In turn, excess “bad” cholesterol can be leveled out within a few months from the start rational nutrition. Onions, garlic and broccoli contain microelements that help normalize vascular tone (reduce high blood pressure), as well as proper cell contraction muscle tissue.
- Cereals and grain products. Oats, buckwheat, wheat, rice, wholemeal bread are a storehouse of valuable B vitamins necessary for the normal functioning of all internal organs, including the heart.

Physical activity
Physical activity for a healthy person should be moderate, especially if the person has not previously been involved in sports or physical activity, and suddenly decided to start doing it. The heart must be subjected to a feasible load. It is enough to start with a little exercise in the morning. Then add light jogging, swimming in the pool, game types sports As a base exercise, it is recommended to perform the following: squats, swings of arms and legs, bends to the side, push-ups, abdominal exercises, stretching.
As an optimal example, aerobic exercise training can be recommended for beginners without cardiac pathology who are starting to actively engage in sports. cardio exercise in reasonable quantities. With increasing training time based on endurance, heart rate and well-being. Best suited for this elliptical trainers, jogging, on the track. It is important that for effective training you need to choose not extreme loads, but longer, but “feasible” ones. The pulse should be in the “aerobic zone” - best between [(190 beats/min) minus (age, years)] and [(150 beats/min) minus (age, years)]. Those. for a 30-year-old person, effective and relatively safe zone to strengthen the heart muscle - from 120 to 160 beats per minute. (It is best to take low-medium values, i.e. 120 – 140 beats/min, especially if you are insufficiently trained).
People with a healthy heart who are already engaged professionally or perform regular classes in fitness centers or gyms, the load program should be drawn up individually with the help of a trainer, and increased in doses and gradually.
As for the activation of a patient with existing cardiovascular diseases, it should be carried out only after consulting a physical therapy doctor.

Is there any point in taking pills?
Medications for primary prevention, that is, for influencing a healthy heart, are in principle not necessary. However, as prescribed by a doctor, patients with existing chronic diseases of other organs (bronchial asthma, diabetes mellitus, pyelonephritis) It is possible to recommend taking microelements - potassium and magnesium, which are contained in the preparations Asparkam, Magnevist, Magnerot, Panangin, Magnelis Forte, etc.
A healthy person should not rely on medications; a complete diet and preventive courses of taking regular vitamins twice a year are enough (Alphabet line, Undevit, Complivit, etc.).
If there is insufficient intake of substances necessary for work, maintaining health and regeneration of the heart muscle from food (for example, amino acids), such conditions can be corrected by prescribing dietary supplements, sports and special nutrition. However best option– get everything you need as part of a balanced diet.
In any case, the optimal solution for healthy people who want to “strengthen their heart” with the help of vitamins, mineral supplements and dietary supplements is an individual consultation with a cardiologist and laboratory determination of the level of microelements in the blood, followed by the prescription of the necessary substances, best of all – not in tablets, but in the form of a supplement diet with foods rich in them.
Video: Example of opinion on athletes taking more serious heart medications
(!) We do not recommend uncontrolled use of any heart medications without a doctor’s prescription!
But certain medications for secondary prevention, that is people with existing heart disease or with aggravated premorbid background (obesity, hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, heart defects, cardiomyopathy), often must be taken. Thus, in patients with (hypercholesterolemia) even without clinical manifestations, it is mandatory to take it (! if in six months it was not possible to correct the level of cholesterol in the blood only with the help of diet).
In patients with ischemia, it is mandatory to take (bisoprolol) in order to reduce the frequency of painful attacks and reduce the risk. Patients with hypertension are required to take (enalapril) or sartans (losartan) for organoprotective purposes, because these drugs protect the heart itself, blood vessels from the inside, kidneys, retina and brain from the negative effects of high blood pressure. blood pressure.
How to strengthen the heart with folk remedies?
Below are some means to strengthen the heart muscle and vascular wall, known to people many decades ago. Belief in their effectiveness is a personal matter for everyone. It is important that patients with existing pathology or those at risk combine traditional methods with treatment prescribed by a doctor and with his knowledge.
Recipe 1. Peel and mince five heads of garlic, mix with the juice of ten lemons and five hundred grams of honey. Take 4-5 teaspoons daily for about a month. (It is believed that this mixture helps remove excess bad cholesterol, including that already deposited in the arteries).
Recipe 2. Pour crushed calendula flowers (marigolds) into a glass of boiling water, leave for 15 minutes, strain and bring the volume to one glass. Take half a glass twice a day for about two weeks.
Recipe 3. 4 tbsp. Mix spoons of onion juice with 4 tbsp. spoons of honey. Take 2 tbsp. l. x 4 times a day – 1 month. Prepare a new mixture daily. (This mixture, like the previous one, has a general strengthening effect).
Recipe 4(with the “stressful” nature of hypertension). The so-called “chatterbox” - buy at the pharmacy or prepare yourself alcoholic tinctures of hawthorn, peony, valerian, motherwort and Corvalol, mix in a larger container and take 15 drops x 3 times a day for a month, and subsequently in stressful situations.
Consumption of medicinal plants and uses folk recipes both for the purpose of prevention and treatment, must be carried out with extreme caution. Unlike pharmaceuticals, which are tested in multicenter studies, the effects of plants on the human body have been little studied. In most cases, no one can isolate the active substance from a plant and study its absorption, distribution to organs and excretion. That is why uncontrolled use of various herbs, infusions, and decoctions without the knowledge of the attending physician can do more harm than good.

One of the presenters will answer your question.
IN at the moment answers the questions: A. Olesya Valerievna, candidate of medical sciences, teacher at a medical university

Doctors sang the benefits of cardio training for the heart. Strength training, in their opinion, is almost useless in this regard. Moreover, doctors recommend that people with heart disease not lift heavy objects. If this recommendation is true, then the fitness craze could cause irreparable harm to the health of thousands of people. In fact, at first heart disease does not manifest itself in any way. Doctors talk about the latent, hidden phase of the disease. But what if severity aggravates the disease and transfers it to the “estric form”? In addition, many are genetically predisposed to heart disease. Such diseases may not manifest themselves if a provoking factor does not intervene in a person’s life. For example, straining during strength training.
To answer all these difficult questions, American scientists examined 44,000 men. Scientists have found that those men who run for an hour or more per week have a 42% lower risk of coronary heart disease, and among men who engage only in strength training, it is reduced by 23%. Along the way, another important advantage was discovered strength training. It accelerated metabolism at rest, which significantly reduced cholesterol levels in the body. In another study, scientists reliably proved that strength training lowers blood pressure. After 2 months of strength training in healthy young men, the average daily blood pressure decreased from 130/69 to 121/61. A real sensation was the recognition of strength training as a treatment for heart failure.
Let us remember that this disease is accompanied by a decrease in the force of contraction of the heart muscle. The blood flow becomes so weak that the patient faces loss of consciousness and death. Strength exercises“impose” on the heart a rhythm of powerful and deep contractions.
It should be noted that in all cases we are talking about moderate power loads. Extreme power loads harmful to the heart.
Anger and heart disease
According to research by American scientists, nervous irritation is more dangerous for the heart than smoking, drinking and being overweight. Increased nervousness has always been associated with heart disease, but scientists believed that there was no direct connection between the two. It's just that those who live in poverty are more nervous. They suffer more from heart disease because they eat poorly and sleep poorly. And these are the main factors that provoke heart disease.
Latest Research showed that increased irritability directly causes heart disease. Scientists are at a loss about the internal mechanism of this connection. In any case, it is clear that in the interests of health you should avoid anything that makes you nervous and worried.
There is a concern that bodybuilding or gaining a lot of muscle mass negatively affects the heart. I am certified personal trainer and part-time bodybuilder. My cholesterol levels and blood pressure are within normal limits. Skeptics insist that the harmful effects of bodybuilding on the heart with excess muscle mass will make itself felt in the future.
I would like to understand how these people came up with the idea that bodybuilding is bad for the heart, because they have not done any research to support this myth. Steroid use, which is common among bodybuilders, can have negative effects on the heart. However, this article only applies to natural bodybuilders and other athletes who build muscle entirely naturally.
Is there research showing that lifting weights is good for your heart? Yes, I have!
A report in the Journal of the American Heart Association found that lifting weights improves heart muscle health. Research conducted by author Barry Franklin, Ph.D., states: “We now have a clearer understanding that weight-lifting training can significantly reduce some factors that influence the risk of heart disease, including lipid and cholesterol levels, blood pressure, obesity and glucose metabolism."
You might be thinking, “Okay, this all applies to lifting weights. But what about bodybuilding and building big muscles?” The minutes of a meeting of the Scientific Council of the American Heart Association, where weight lifting was discussed, recommended the following: one set of exercises of 8-15 repetitions, including 8-10 different standard exercises, 2-3 times a week.
They will train much more than indicated above, especially with regard to the number of approaches. However, if the recommendations of the ACA protocol are followed at the most intense level, then a person (if he is genetically predisposed and follows a maintenance diet) can become quite muscular. If a person chooses to lift weights, which makes doing 8-15 reps of the exercises quite difficult, then he is not intending to develop the muscle as if he were going to do it by choosing resistance exercises, which makes doing 8-15 reps almost impossible.
In addition, rest time between sets of exercises, which is not specified in the ASA report, plays a role important role in muscle development. No matter how diligently a person adheres to this protocol, he will not become ridiculously large, although he may become quite muscular enough to be skeptical that all that muscle is harming his heart.
Other studies show that weight-lifting training helps lower resting blood pressure (Hypertension: Journal of the American Heart Association). Lead author Dr. George A. Kelly suggests: "Even if this reduction in blood pressure is small, it may reduce an individual's risk of heart disease and angina."
Although these studies do not analyze bodybuilding regimens, anyone can conclude that a few steps of strength training on the way to the world of bodybuilding will not lead to heart damage. And why on earth should they lead to this?
One person on a bodybuilding forum said that he had heard from someone that a lot of muscle increases body weight, and that eventually this additional weight leads to deformation of the heart... the heart muscle is stretched due to overweight, it doesn’t matter whether it’s muscle mass or fat. According to this theory, taller people have a greater risk of developing heart disease because tall people are generally heavier than short people.
Of course, being tall is not a risk factor for heart disease! Body obesity is a major risk factor for heart disease. Franklin said, "The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolic rate, and the more calories you can burn every day." Competitive bodybuilders, and those who are such at heart, have a relatively low body fat percentage. total mass bodies.
This makes all their details more visible muscle structure, even creating the illusion of the weakest bodybuilders large quantity muscles. Low body fat (in the "athletic" range) does not lead to heart problems. Franklin adds that for typical healthy adults at low risk of heart disease, lifting weights is safe.
Who Shouldn't Do Regular Weight Lifting?
Franklin believes that people with unstable angina, uncontrolled arrhythmia and uncontrolled blood pressure. However, those who criticize bodybuilding or excessive muscle mass believe that these activities are harmful to the heart of healthy people or can become unhealthy over time.
According to the American Heart Association, the following risks for the development of heart disease include obesity, smoking, hypertension, high levels of “bad” cholesterol, hyperlipidemia (exceeding the level of fat in the blood), diabetes, constant mental stress, excessive consumption of fatty foods, hereditary predisposition and... . flaw physical activity.
Other risks for developing heart disease include a body mass index over 25, constant increased level blood sugar (prediabetes), insomnia, sleep duration at night 6 hours or less or 9 hours or more, apnea syndrome (sudden cessation of breathing during sleep). Does a bodybuilder or person with large muscle mass fit these criteria?
Large muscle mass does not lead to any of these risk conditions.
Men and women who work hard to increase muscle mass are very conscious about eating healthy. Although they do consider cheating with their food intake, the bulk of their diet remains healthy, so all their food is highly refined, with significant restrictions on white sugar, white flour products, saturated fats, trans fats and other ingredients harmful to health.
Regarding the idea that the heart is deformed by body weight when there is a lot of muscle mass, understand that the heart of such a person is well conditioned as a result of bodybuilding, as well as the heart exercises that accompany the entire bodybuilding lifestyle.

Running and bodybuilding. Harm... or benefit?
Due to poor nutrition, age-related changes, and stress, the heart muscle wears out. Dystrophic changes appear in tissues, leading to cardiovascular diseases. Drugs to strengthen the heart reduce cholesterol levels, stimulate metabolic processes and saturate the myocardium with the necessary elements for smooth functioning.
Over the course of a lifetime, the heart wears out and you have to take medications to strengthen the heart muscle.
Indications for the use of heart strengthening agents
General heart-strengthening drugs are used for preventive and therapeutic purposes. They are useful for people over 35 years of age to drink in order to reduce the load on the organ and improve vascular permeability.
Indications for drugs are:
- cerebral vascular pathologies;
- pressure surges;
- circulatory failure;
- rhythm disturbances;
- myocardial diseases;
- rehabilitation after a heart attack.
If there is a surge in blood pressure, take heart medications
Drugs to strengthen the heart muscle are useful for athletes during intensive training. They are used in bodybuilding for extreme physical activity. Medicines are indicated for people who do hard work or work in hazardous industries. Cardiac medications are prescribed in old age and in the treatment of chronic diseases that have a negative effect on the myocardium: diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism.
You cannot make a decision about taking medications on your own - consult a therapist or cardiologist.
Classification of drugs to improve heart function
The table shows the classification of medications that improve heart function.
Drug group | Action |
Cardioprotectors. These include statins, antiplatelet drugs and beta blockers | They improve the function of the heart muscle, restore metabolic processes in the myocardium, and reduce the load on the organ. Statins reduce the concentration of cholesterol in the blood, beta blockers normalize rhythm and blood pressure and are used for heart failure. Antiplatelet agents are used to thin the blood and prevent vascular atherosclerosis. |
Cardiotrophics (Pacemakers) | Promote tissue regeneration, participate in glucose metabolism, and help saturate the heart with oxygen. Their use normalizes metabolism in the myocardium, the contractility of the heart muscle and improves coronary circulation. |
Metabolic drugs | Provide nutrition to the heart muscle, eliminate hypoxia, activate the metabolism of glucose and oxygen. They improve metabolism in cells, saturate tissues with iron and other substances, accelerate oxidative processes, and neutralize toxins. |
Vitamins | Designed to protect circulatory system and hearts from functional failures. They have a complex effect, strengthening the myocardium, vascular walls, and reducing cholesterol. Vitamins normalize lipid metabolism and overall well-being. |
Potassium and magnesium containing drugs | Prescribed to increase calcium and magnesium levels in the body. A lack of microelements causes swelling of the myocardium, impaired contractions and spasms. Medicines relieve cramps, chronic fatigue, and reduce the load on the heart during physical work. |
Nitrates | Nitrogen-containing compounds relax vascular walls, remove spasms, and reduce the myocardium’s need for oxygen. |

To improve cardiac performance, purchase medications only as directed by your doctor. Improper treatment can reduce the elasticity of vascular walls and trigger the development of dystrophic changes in the myocardium.

A responsible approach guarantees effectiveness when instructions are strictly followed.
