Raynauds Disease & SHAKLEE Helps

Raynauds Disease is a condition in which the arteries of the hands and sometimes the feet are reactive and become spastic when the hands are cold. This is a circulatory disorder that produces attacks of pallor, numbness and discomfort. Due to this spastic response in the small arteries, the fingers or toes are deprived of adequate amounts of oxygenated blood, and become whitish or bluish in colour. The symptoms can come on quickly, and may be triggered by emotional stress. ver time, the condition may result in a general shrinkage of the affected area. !angrene or ulceration of the fingertips and toes may result from lack of blood to the affected part. This often leads to chronic infection under and around the finger or toe nails. Causes: "rteriosclerosis or "ngina #caused by spasms in the coronary arteries$ %t is often the side effect of prescription drugs& o 'alcium channel blockers #usually given for high blood pressure, angina or migraines$ o (rgot preparations #drugs given for funguses$ o "lpha) and beta)adrenergic blockers #usually given for high blood pressure, angina, congestive heart failure, irregular heartbeat, benign prostatic hyperplasia, etc.$ *eurgers disease #a chronic inflammation of the blood vessels in the extremities that is most common in people who smoke$ +igraines Traditional Medical Treatment: ,atient is told to wear warm gloves Take antispasmodic drugs #such as phenoxyben-amine$ .ympathectomy is sometimes recommended #surgery to divide the sympathetic nerve fibers in an attempt to improve circulation$ Recommendations: "void everything that causes artery constriction //.caffeine, stress, smoking, fatty 0 fried foods Supplements of Tremendous enefit: o 'oen-yme123 o 4itamin ( o !inkgo *iloba #.5"67(( +ental "cuity$ o 7ecithin 8 9laxseed oil capsules #or ground flaxseed$ o "lfalfa o 'alcium +agnesium o * 'omplex
