Strawberries and Apples Could Reduce Heart Damage

Many of the health benefits of fruit consumption, including strawberries and apples. Based on research, both these fruits can reduce long-term damage to the organ after a heart attack.

Scientists from the University of Cambridge discovered the presence of chemicals in strawberries and apples can reduce the long-term injury to vital organs. Among other benefits, a person's survival rate increased after a heart attack and stroke.

As is known to decrease the post-cardiac function, such as damage to the heart muscle. Heart attacks can also come back and can lead to heart failure. When someone is having a heart attack or stroke, blood clots occur so the heart to the brain is deprived of blood and oxygen. To that end, the handling of a heart attack should be as soon as possible.

During this time, the handling of a heart attack is to reopen blocked coronary flow, known as reperfusion.

Experts and doctors at the University of Cambridge to assess if the chemicals on strawberries and apples injected in patients after an attack, they can help reduce damage to the heart or other organs.

The researchers revealed that the damage caused by the buildup of botched heart succinate chemicals. When blood flow, succinate interact with oxygen, then releases destructive molecules that kill cells in the heart or other organs.
