A ventricular septal defect (VSD), a hole in the heart,
is a common heart defect that's
present at birth (congenital). The hole occurs in the wall that separates the
heart's lower chambers (septum) and allows blood to pass from the left to the
right side of the heart. The oxygen-rich blood then gets pumped back to the
lungs instead of out to the body, causing the heart to work harder. A small
ventricular septal defect may cause no problems, and many small VSDs close on
their own. Larger VSDs need surgical repair early in life to prevent
complications.
Symptoms
Signs and symptoms of serious heart defects often appear
during the first few days, weeks or months of a child's life. Ventricular
septal defect symptoms in a baby [adult?] may include:
·
Poor eating, failure to thrive
·
Fast breathing or breathlessness
·
Easy tiring
Signs and symptoms vary depending on the size of the hole
and other associated heart defects. If the defect is small, symptoms may not
appear until later in childhood — if at all. Sometimes a VSD isn't detected
until a person reaches adulthood. Signs and symptoms can include
·
a heart murmur
·
shortness of breath

Cause Congenital Heart Defect
Congenital heart defects arise from problems early in the
heart's development, but there's often no clear cause. Genetics and
environmental factors probably play a role. VSDs can occur alone or with other
congenital heart defects.
During fetal development, a ventricular septal defect
occurs when the muscular wall separating the heart into left and right sides
(septum) fails to form fully between the lower chambers of the heart
(ventricles).
Normally, the right side of the heart pumps blood to the
lungs to get oxygen; the left side pumps the oxygen-rich blood to the rest of
the body. A VSD allows oxygenated blood to mix with deoxygenated blood, causing
the heart to work harder to provide enough oxygen to the body's tissues. It's
also possible to acquire a VSD later in life, usually after a heart attack.
Some smaller ventricular septal defects are closed
surgically to prevent complications related to their locations, such as damage
to heart valves. Many people with small VSDs have productive lives with few
related problems.
Medications for ventricular
septal defect may include those to:
·
Increase the
strength of the heart's contractions. Examples include digoxin (Lanoxin).
·
Decrease the amount
of fluid in circulation and in the lungs. Doing so reduces the volume of blood
that must be pumped. These medications, called diuretics [water pill] include furosemide (Lasix).
·
Keep the heartbeat
regular. Examples include beta blockers (Lopressor, Inderal LA, others) and
digoxin (Lanoxin, Lanoxin Pediatric).
Garlic alone can provide us
with over two hundred unusual chemicals that have the capability of protecting
the human body from a wide variety of diseases. Garlic is a scientifically
proven panacea for the human body, balancing and fortifying all
systems and organs which naturally allow optimum
function [healing]; without the [lethal] side-effects of synthetic
medication. The TONIC Nutritional Garlic
Supplement contains the power of raw garlic
and no awful garlic residue.
Garlic vs Synthetic Medication Side-effects
Garlic and its preparations have been widely recognized
as agents for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular and other metabolic
diseases, atherosclerosis, hyperlipidemia, thrombosis, hypertension and
diabetes. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC139960/

Effect of Garlic on Cardiovascular
Disorders: A Review
Effectiveness of garlic in cardiovascular diseases was
more encouraging in experimental studies, which prompted several clinical
trials. This review has attempted to make a bridge the gap between experimental
and clinical study and to discuss the possible mechanisms of such therapeutic
actions of garlic.
Dietary factors play a key role in the development of
various human diseases, including cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological
studies have shown that diets rich in fruits, herbs and spices are associated with a low risk of cardiovascular
disease.
Garlic has attracted particular attention of modern
medicine because of its widespread health use around the world, and the
cherished belief that it helps in maintaining good health warding off illnesses
and providing more vigor. To date, many favorable experimental and clinical
effects of garlic preparations, including garlic extract, have been reported.
These biological responses have been largely attributed
to i) reduction of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and cancer, ii)
stimulation of immune function, iii) enhanced detoxification of foreign
compound, iv) hepatoprotection, v) antimicrobial effect and vi) antioxidant
effect. This review has been made indicating an overall view of the efficacy of
garlic in cardiovascular disease conditions both in human and animals.
Raw garlic homogenate
has been the major preparation of garlic subjected to intensive scientific
study, as because it is the commonest way of garlic consumption. Raw garlic
homogenate is essentially same as aqueous extract of garlic, which has been
used in various scientific studies.
High Blood Pressure
A general definition of hypertension is a systolic blood
pressure (SBP) of 140 mm Hg or higher or a diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 90
mm Hg or higher or both. Prevention and proper management of hypertension
decreases the incidence of related morbidity and mortality. Diets high in
fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products; have been shown to reduce
hypertension. Increased consumption of garlic is associated with lower
incidence of hypertension in population.
Blood pressure lowering effect of garlic on human is
given in Table- Table-4.4.
Blood pressure reduction was observed in 85% of the patients, the average
decline being 12.3 mm Hg systolic (SBP) and 6.5 mm Hg diastolic (DBP) blood
pressure, over one-quarter of the subjects experienced a decline in SBP of 20
mm Hg or more.

Diabetes
Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by
high blood glucose levels resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin
action, or both. Abnormalities in the metabolism of carbohydrate, protein, and
fat are also present [122].
Nutrition plays a primary role to control blood glucose level and further
complication.
Results Diabetes and Garlic
Hypoglycemic effect of garlic in human is not well
studied. Chronic feeding of garlic oil and garlic powder [78,135]
showed significant decrease in blood glucose level whereas some other studies [57,117,136]
showed no change of blood glucose level. Relatively few side effects were
reported in clinical studies using garlic and its preparations. Most of the
reported side effects were non-specific. Gastrointestinal discomfort and nausea
were the most frequent complaint [170].
Conclusions
Epidemiological study shows an inverse correlation
between garlic consumption and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease
progression [180–182]. The wealth of scientific literature supports the
proposal that garlic consumption have significant cardioprotective effect,
which include both animal and human studies. But certain issues regarding the
proper use of garlic, i.e use of different preparations available, dose,
duration and interaction with generic drugs should be optimized. Further
research should also be carried out to identify specific compounds from garlic
or garlic products that are responsible for most of its biological effects. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC139960/
Editor’s Commentary
Garlic balances, fortifies and restores and appears to instinctively know what is needed to
make bodily organs and systems function normally.
ONLY if current symptoms are tolerable
Garlic [maybe] a viable method to [help] alleviate Heart, Lungs, Diabetes, HBP concerns
and is strongly suggested BEFORE or with current prescription or surgery; a
panacea for the human body.
Talk
with your doctors about taking The TONIC
