Join host Jim Applegate on Reality of Herbal Therapy as he dedicates this episode to the heart — the body’s nonstop electric pump. Jim explains heart anatomy and function (cardiac muscle, chambers, arteries, veins, capillaries), how the heart’s electrical rhythm works, and why good circulation matters for energy, clear thinking, and warm extremities.

This episode covers common stresses that strain the heart — physical inactivity, excess weight, emotional stress, processed foods, caffeine, smoking, and late-night eating — and highlights the importance of minerals (especially potassium), hydration, rest, and daily movement like walking or using a rebounder.

Jim introduces key herbal supports developed and recommended by Dr. James: the Hrt formula for rhythm and muscle support; Blood Wash to improve circulation and reduce vascular “gunk”; Nemia to normalize blood consistency (often used with Hrt when thyroid or blood health is involved); and Tissue Mend for rebuilding and recovery. He describes when to use each formula, how some can be combined, and real-life examples of fast relief from irregular heart sensations.

The episode closes with practical, actionable tips: establish simple AM/PM routines (prayer, meditation, gratitude, time with a core book), prioritize movement, hydration, and sleep, and avoid high-stress environments, excess caffeine, and smoking. Jim also reviews warning signs that require immediate medical attention — severe chest pressure, sudden shortness of breath, fainting, numbness or weakness in extremities — and reminds listeners how small daily changes can significantly reduce heart stress.
