Someone should market coq10, omega3, and folic acid together as a heart saving pill.

I’m glad I don’t have to pronounce the names of any of the researchers.

[Veto!]

Great news. I’ve been taking all of those things for years. At my MD appointment last week, my blood pressure was on the low end of “good.” And I’m 86.

Exercise helps too. A 20 minute walk daily will keep you quite healthy. Treadmill our outside, doesn’t matter. My far-younger neighbor thinks it’s fun to walk outside in the snow. Big sigh.

A one gram dose of omega oil fills an entire large capsule so hard to do that.

They found strong evidence that several offered cardiovascular benefits. These included omega-3 fatty acid, which decreased mortality from cardiovascular disease; folic acid, which lowered stroke risk; and coenzyme Q10, an antioxidant sometimes marketed as CoQ10, which decreased all-cause mortality. Omega-6 fatty acid, L-citrulline, L-arginine, quercetin, melatonin, curcumin, Vitamin D, zinc, magnesium, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA), catechin, flavanol, and genistein also showed evidence of reducing cardiovascular risk.

Unfortunately most of the study participants died of kidney failure.....others from clogged upper intestine.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Micronutrients? Like those tiny shrimp they put in eggrolls?

“Omega-6”

Discredited.

Nothing is credible in medical science thse days.

[redangus]

My guess is someone probably has.

[steve86]

Taking everything on that list (at least most of the time), I have been aware of the possibility, but hasn’t happened yet.

Almost any diet is better than the standard American diet, aka SAD.

Yeh, but that mix blows out your liver! But the heart loves it!

Interesting, but it’s not really clear what the difference between the two yellow triangles is.
