Atherosclerosis is the hardening of the coronary arteries. When an artery becomes hardened, its walls become rigid and non elastic. This is caused by excessive deposits of fatty substances in the inner walls of the arteries. A diet rich in cholesterol, hydrogenated fat, and low in fiber allows plaques to form in the walls of the arteries. As fatty substances build-up within the inner walls of the vessel, it lessens the flow of blood to the heart muscle. If a piece of plaque wall breaks and completely obstructs the flow of blood to the heart muscle, it will lead to a heart attack. If the impairment occurs in the blood vessel that supplies blood to the brain, it will lead to a stroke.
The most common symptom of atherosclerosis is pain in the heart, (angina pectoris), caused when the heart muscle does not get enough oxygen and blood.
Homeopathy in Practice
The homeopathic goal is to inhibit the process of atherosclerosis naturally without side effects.
Stop smoking if you smoke. Relax, reduce your stress levels, and engage in 30 minutes of physical activity, daily.

Avoid foods rich insaturated fats.
Take one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water, twice a day.
Garlic may prevent atherosclerosis. In the morning take a tiny piece of garlic and crush it with the knife. Follow with a glass of water (swallowing instead of chewing avoids garlic breath).
