What are cardiotonic plants?
Cardiotonic plants are those that tone the heart.
Cardiotonic plants potentiate the heart muscle and have a positive effect on circulation.
A toned heart has more force to push the blood through the arteries getting a better blood supply of all the body cells.
We also need to tone the heart so as it can maintain a proper rhythm, preventing abnormalities such as tachycardias (very fast heart rate), arrhythmias (decompensated rhythm) or bradycardia (slow heart rhythm).
A stronger heart is able to withstand stress better and is less prone to accidents, such as heart attacks.
