Cardiovascular Support
"Heart health" in Western medicine encompasses an array of risk factors such as blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and markers like C-reactive protein and homocysteine, along with lifestyle elements such as diet, physical activity, and smoking, all of which contribute to the potential for major cardiac events (Mozaffarian et al., 2016, Circulation).
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) ascribes to the heart a role in governing blood flow and vessels, emphasizing the significance of heart Qi and blood in maintaining robust circulation (Li et al., 2017, Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine). Moreover, TCM views the heart as the locus of the Shen, encompassing both mind and spirit, suggesting that a well-functioning heart and ample blood supply foster a harmonious mental and emotional state and clear consciousness (Li et al., 2019, Chinese Medicine). Notably, TCM posits a connection between heart health and facial appearance due to the rich network of blood vessels in the face, with a strong heart correlating to vibrant complexion, luster, and moisture (Zhang et al., 2019, Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine). Within the TCM paradigm, the heart assumes the role of an "Emperor" governing all bodily organs, illustrating its central importance in sustaining overall well-being (Li et al., 2021, Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine).
