Thanks, JA.

I am waiting to see if they can come up with something that'll safely remove arterial plaque and clotting from blood vessels. THAT'LL be the thing. In the meantime, there isn't much at most GNC-type stores that'll cause big problems, if it is used with a dose of sense and a degree of self-education.

I had a heart attack about 4 weeks ago. I got an Angioplasty and a stent in an occluded graft for it- felt immediately better.

You take blood thinners, of course?

I take aspirin several times a day for arthritis, in my opinion it's helping my heart...

You might try the top left protocols search on this page under Cardiovascular;

If they do not guide you to look at homocysteine please do so as well.

Research on oral chelation might interest you, too.

GNC products may do little harm but they are not necessarily of quality to accomplish your purposes, either. There is great profit in the field and the difference between the quality of products is frquently enormous while the price is usually negligible. The integrity of the manufacturer is a definite factor.

Its already here, but is not readily available yet.

A synthetically produced large HDL molecule called the Milano-XXX(?) was shown to actually reduce arterial plaque buildup by 4% in about 4-6 weeks in its initial human trials. Doctors were stunned.

Also, recent tests on Lipitor demonstrated that giving enough to get LDL under 80 actually slightly reversed arterial buildup, Pravachol did not do it.

On another vein, no pun intended, a web search on "Linus Pauling" and "solution" possibly, should turn up a paper that the Nobel prize winner did explaining heart disease and how plaque buildup occurs. This is not conventional scientific thinking but is gaining credibility fast.

His thesis is that a lack of Vitamin C, which the body wants to use to repair arteries and for arterial health, causes the body to use Lipoprotein A instead. This leads to buildup and the usual nasty events that follow. The article explains in detail on a scientific basis how this occurs. All animals but man and possibly other primates produce their own vitamin C. Man must ingest it to survive. Pauling did animal experiments and proved on animals that plaque buildup can be prevented and even reversed.

He gave them Lysine and Vitamin C.

Since I read about this I have been taking both of these
