Cardiovascular Disease
Cardiovascular disease includes conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels, such as atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, and elevated cholesterol. Functional medicine recognizes that inflammation, oxidative stress, and metabolic dysfunction drive cardiovascular disease, and addresses these root causes to prevent and reverse heart disease.
Common symptoms
- Chest pain or discomfort (angina)
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue
- Palpitations
- Dizziness
- High blood pressure
- Elevated cholesterol
- Leg pain with walking (claudication)
