Abstract

This third part shows the other side of the coin.After explaining the factors that regulate endothelial and coronary microvascular function (part A and B), we describe different methods and aspects that can be integrated with conventional medicine with considerable impact in terms of therapeutic effectiveness and of health care costs.We talk about nutrition and herbal medicine, exercise, mind-body disciplines, attention to emotions and to the psycho-social background of patients.And this is the answer to the crisis of the Western therapeutic model suggested by a relatively new current of thought in medicine: the Integrative Medicine. What can be concretely done to modulate endothelial function in a healthy way?The search for circuits, diagrams of relationships between organs and cells, the drawing of functional maps in the human body that are detached from the fixity of the organ anatomy, lead the recognition of the importance of continuous cross-talk between cells, organs and systems in both physiological and pathological conditions, based on the fine regulation of the levels of a large number of interconnected messenger molecules.Thus, it is possible to interpret the pathological phenomenon as an alteration in the communication between the cells, an imbalance in intercellular signalling [1].These alterations of signals and dialogues, determine, over time, new balances and compensations within the PNEI network, with the possible final appearance of symptoms and the state we…
