I had a check up a couple months ago that showed a build up—but not blockage—of plaque on my carotid arteries.
So now I’m taking a stack that I’ve read will remove the plaque. The stack includes
crestor. (anti inflammation)
ramapril (anti inflammation)
Niacin 2 grams time release plaque removal
d3 k2 plaque removal (specifically k2 removes calcium from arteries)
coq10 (makes up losses caused by statins)
Tadafil increases nitric oxide (improves artery and endocrine function)
l citrulline increases nitric oxide (improves artery and endocrine function)
Sir, I had a coronary calcium scan done and It found a small amount in one artery on my heart. Consequently, I am taking the following each day:
Hard plaque removal:
Vitamin D3 - 6000 IUs from supplements
Vitamin K2 - MK4 (25 mg—not mcgs)
Vitamin K2 - MK7 (0.5 mg — not mcgs)
Magnesium Malate
The Vitamin K source is from “Koncentrated K,” suggested by a FReeper. I was taking a much more normal amount of each until recently.
The above primarily just helps to reduce the deposited calcium. Sadly, the calcium is usually there for a reason—it’s covering a soft plaque that ruptured. Removing just the calcium is only partially fixing the accrued damage. It does allow more vascular flexibility, once removed, but your soft plaque is likely still there. You need to attack the soft plaque.
Soft plaque removal:
Nattokinase - Six Nattovena capsules every other day
Lumbrokinase - One capsule every other day not using Nattokinase
Kyloic Aged Garlic - two capsules a day
Vitamin C - One Ester-C 500 mg and one time release Vitamin C 500 mg
B Complex - Douglas Laboratories brand with metafolin and intrinsic factor
Curcumin - 500 mg (half pill) Doctor’s Best brand with Bioperine
Fucoidan - 500 mg Swanson Fucoidan Extract
Citrus Bergamot - 500 mg Jarrow brand
Pycnogenol - 150 mg Healthy Origins brand
Tocotrienols - 100 mg Swanson brand every other day (taking Vitamin E gamma form intervening days)
Went lower carb. Bought several kinds of seaweed and have seaweed snacks for occasional eating. Tasty and has the stuff you need to directly reduce soft plaques.
Some of those items above I was already taking, but they count for their respective plaque types, too.
