Co-enzyme Q10, 100-300mg/day Fish oil with 480mg of EPA and 360mg DHA/day Hawthorn, 500-900mg/day Magnesium 500mg/day Vitamin C, ascorbic acid 6,000mg/day According to a study by Dr. Sydney Bush, blocked coronary arteries can be opened by taking 10,000 mg of ascorbic acid/vitamin C a day (divided doses) and 3,000 mg of lysine twice a day. Conventional medicine hates these studies: they'd rather sell you angioplasty or something else that really doesn't work. But they'll experiment on you anyway.

I have no wish to blow my own trumpet, but I have studied cardiology extensively, thenosekows, hasn't and does not know what he is talking about. Best advice is a healthy diet, eat at least 3 portions of oily fish per week, exercise, limit alcohol consumption and stop smoking if you smoke. There is no good evidence to support the rubbish that thenoseknows mentioned. 10,000 mg of ascorbic acid/vitamin C a day (divided doses) and 3,000 mg of lysine twice a day will not open up blocked arteries, there is no reason why it should. If you have arteriosclerosis, you cannot remove the atheroma in your arteries, all you can do is limit further build up. Arteriosclerosis is part of the ageing process, however an unhealthy lifestyle and diet will of course accelerate this process. "Conventional medicine hates these studies: they'd rather sell you angioplasty or something else that really doesn't work. But they'll experiment on you anyway" Angioplasty opens up the blocked artery, improving blood flow to the heart. Please show me an equivalent in Altmed. I would also be interested to know how you actually evaluate this too. What diagnostic testing do you use? MPI? What? I think you are full of BS.
