I was taught in medical school that coronary artery disease (CAD), or the blockages that can choke off blood flow to the heart, progresses from minor “streaks” in youth, to visible plaques young adulthood, and on to complicated plaques and major problems later in life. During my training the arrow always pointed towards heart disease advancing and never reversing. This is just not true! Indeed, for nearly 3 decades it has been known that just as arteries can worsen with time, they can also improve rapidly. Some of the measures to achieve this are presented here.
Statin Medication
While reversal of clogged heart arteries has been shown before, most of the studies actually look at other endpoints like risk of heart attack and even survival in patients with calcified arteries treated with statins. A study just published looked at a database of 13, 644 patients studied for heart artery disease by a coronary calcium CT scan and followed for over 9 years. The group was also analyzed as to whether they were on a statin medication to lower their cholesterol. As the picture above demonstrates, when the score, a measurement of how much calcium was in the heart arteries, was calculated as abnormal at 100–400, or over 400, being treated with a statin was associated with a lower risk of bad outcomes. In fact, when the calcium score was over 100, only 12 patients needed to receive a statin to prevent one event like a heart attack, stroke, or death.

Whiskey?
My lovely and gracious Japanese wife has been shoving a clove of aged garlic in my mouth every morning for the last three or four years. I like garlic, but that stuff is NASTY. Maybe I should stop bitching about it.
Don't forget about the colloidal silver. That is, I’m told by some, the cure for everything. Take it and don’t feel blue, just turn blue.
Click vitamin D at the top. Lost of scholarly studies about the different things available for covid.
As a 65-year-old fitness trainer, Mariner, I approve your message.
“Whiskey?”
You bet. With a side of Statin Bacon.
What’s puzzzling about this is that statins ggo after fats while the article talks about displaced calcium in the arteries.
Secondly, the scare sheets don’t afree with the article and studies show that statins can’t distinguish between blood fats and brain matter...ehich is primarily made of cholesterol.
My endochrinologist told me that high blood cholesterol has nothing to do with fats from meats and veggies, and everything to do with high consumption of carbogydrates.
So to burn up cholesterol, one needs to severely reduce carbs, eat a healthy diet. High veg, medium meat, knockoff the bread, pasta, and sweets.
No, try convincing a diabetic that having pee scented breath is better than a bowl of pasta and chocolate cake 🤣
Red Yeast Rice in combo with Nattokinase.

Anthony Loffredo, a Frenchman who wants to be a “black alien”, has had his nose removed in Spain, where it is legal to do so, reports the Mirror.
OK
How anybody puts that in their body is beyond me.
