It is the mechanically the most active organ of our body. The actual \u201cwork\u201d is performed by billions of muscle cells that contract at the same time to form the heartbeat. And just like in a car, the biological motor \u201cheart\u201d needs energy to function properly. Micronutrients are the most important carriers of biological energy for an optimum contraction of the heart muscle cells. A long-term dietary deficiency of micronutrients leads to an insufficient contraction of the heart muscle cells, to a suboptimal pumping function of the heart and eventually to heart failure (cardiomyopathy). Typical heart failure symptoms include shortness of breath, edema and chronic fatigue, making everyday activities such as house cleaning, walking or going to the supermarket very difficult.<\/p>\n<h3>References<\/h3>\n<p>P H Langsjoen,\u00a0K Folkers,\u00a0K Lyson,\u00a0K Muratsu,\u00a0T Lyson,\u00a0P Langsjoen<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><a style=\"color: #5aadcb;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/2276894\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Link to article &gt;&gt;<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summary The heart is the \u201cmotor\u201d of our body, contracting about 80,000 times a day to pump the blood through our circulatory system.
