My LDL has always been between 115-130mg/dL, HDL 42-52, Trigly 47-65, Try/HDL ~1-1.3, NO STATIN, always a veggie person (asian indian), 62 yrs, BMI ~23, D2M, A1c always between 6 to 6.3 for 23 yrs. No symptoms, hiked all sorts of mountains, climbs 500-1000 steps with no issues. Recently did a CAC although my primary doc said he doesn't believe in the score. What is my CAC score? 2900. Almost all vessels are calcified. Left main 74, LAD-612, LCX-937, RCA-503, PDA-766. I am going to start STATIN & based on above lecture I am hopeful that my plaques are all stabalized due to extensive calcification. Now, why this happened? I think it is because of inflammation although I have no clue why I had high inflammation. My hs-CRP numbers were between 3 & 4.5 for 5 years consitantly about 10-15 yrs back. In the last 6 months, I started taking fish tablets and this brought down my hs-CRP to 2. Will Statins bring this to
No doubt your CAC is very, very high. I likely would first be stabilizing it myself if I was in your position as this what a statin does. But at the same time, it increases calcification all in the name of stabilization. I am using the Linus Pauling Heart Protocol to reverse my CAC. And have by 30% in 20 months from 660 to 458. I am not on a statin, but I can understand its usefulness. Even though I prefer not to due to its many know side effects. The Linus Pauling Heart Protocol uses high dose vitamin C, Lysine and Proline. I am on 30 grams of ascorbic acid powder in divided doses per day. I also use in powder form Lysine and Proline 8 grams each per day. One other supplement is magnesium glycinate I use 800mg per day. When magnesium is up Calcium is down. Most people are deficient in magnesium. I would suggest world renowned cardiologist Dr. Thomas Levy's book "Stop America's #1 Killer " Proof that the Origin of All Coronary Heart Disease is Clearly Reversible Arterial Scurvy. Yes that's right, you have a severe focal deficiency of vitamin C in your arteries according to Dr. Levy as did I! It all starts with Lp-a the most dangerous subparticle of LDL because it is attracted to the damaged exposed Lysine and Proline strands. The Lysine and Proline amino acids are used as Lp-a binding inhibitors meaning once bound Lp-a is neutralized. Have your Lp-a level checked. Mine is 20mg/dl. 30mg is the upper safe limit. People with high levels are 2-3 times greater risk for a cardiac event. But there are plenty of people with high levels that have never had an event. Fix the vitamin C deficiency and you likely never will. IMO. I am un concerned over cholesterol levels. But very concerned over focal vitamin C deficiency. If you like to see a video on how this all works seek out the Dr. Mathis Rath Institute that gives an excellent demonstration of arteries clearing and repairing themselves. Linus Pauling was a 2-time Nobel Prize winner and was awarded 28 PhD's over his lifetime. Dr. Rath was an associate of Pauling. Good luck 👍
@47.00 - I think CIMT still has advantages as it is low/no radiation. Even though CT may offer more precision, it is expensive and the contrast could be very painful ..
@jp7357 I'll do one better ! Hard calcium reversal CAC from 660 to 458 in 20 months. And if the hard Calcium is gone I would expect soft plague to be the first to go!
With this being fairly new info I don’t understand the CAC score reference here. It’s my understanding that scores range from 0 to over 2000, not 1000.
It doesn't really have a limit but surprisingly there are a lot of people between 2000 and 4000 even. I'm 68 and at 60 I had one at 299 5 yrs later 660 then 20 months later 458 reversing with the Linus Pauling Heart Protocol. Yes it's common for scores to double every 5 years.
@@SET12DSPYou do know that under the calcified plaque there is soft hot plaque that is very vulnerable to rupture. Calcium is not the problem & it’s not going to kill you, soft plaque is what you want to focus your attention on. I’d say try to stop the progression of plaque formation would be key to this disease but unfortunately I really never heard of people doing it, unfortunately this disease is progressive. Under calcified plaque there is the hot vulnerable plaque that is waiting to rupture so decreasing its protective cap of calcium really makes no sense. I see you comment on a lot of youtube videos promoting the Linus Pauling heart protocol, why?
@@claudiabaez7812 You do know that the three layers of the artery wall require the normal formation and maintenance of collegan to be an anatomically normal structure. A calcified artery wall 🧱 is not anatomically correct! Adequate amounts of Vitamin C are required for proper maintenance of collegan as tissues in the body have some degree of turnover and metabolism requiring a supply of nutrients especially Vitamin C necessary to produce collegan which constitute over 30% of the bodies protein content. And that means one heck of an amount of vitamin C. And to get therapeutic doses one could never eat enough food to make a difference. I supplement with 25 grams of Vitamin C per day the equivalent of eating 500 oranges 🍊 per day. This is not only is a lot of therapy for the arteries but for the rest of the body as well especially your skin. Unfortunately the body uses Vitamin C extensively to fight off toxins especially oral ones. And when this happens focal scurvy can develop in the arteries next to the beating heart caused by the mechanical stress of the artery depleting it of Vitamin C. It's as simple as that. When this happens cracks and holes develop exposing Lysine and Proline strands that Lp-a is attracted to which further attract LDL and fats. While hard calcium is stable it doesn't mean you can't have a heart attack because the calcium still means narrowed stiff arteries that eventually give way to high blood pressure as well. So if debris can still come along and create blockage. During statin trails the control group had a 3% heart attack rate while the Statin group with its calcified plaque had a 2% heart attack rate. Pharma likes to call the difference between the statin group and its control group a 30% improvement! Hardly worth it long-term IMO. Your calcifing everything including your eyes which lead to degeneration of them. Maybe you'd be lucky to just deal with cataracts but then again there are many things to contend with the eyes like macular degeneration. You should see the interior of eyes blood flow before and after just being on high dose vitamin C for 1 year! So you'd rather see the artery plastered with calcium and along with this your brain calcified as well? And you know where I'm going with that! Calcification of the arteries is cheap fix that either the body uses by generating Lp-a or by Statins. And BTW statins increase the production of Lp-a. The speed of reversal is dependent on the condition of the individual with issues of toxins being very low or non-existent, because if there are enough toxins the reversal is not possible. At the age of 68 and in reasonably good health I can afford to take the risk of pursuing Linus Paulings Protocol. I have had more years of life than many people and for my age am in much better condition than my father was when he was my age. And even better than many of my uncles. I would suggest reading Dr. Thomas Levy's book "Stop America's # 1" Killer " Proof that the Origin of All Coronary Heart Disease is Clearly Reversible Arterial Scurvy. And I honestly don't believe he's kidding! Another book of his is "Curing the Incurable" with 1200 medical references in it. Stuff hid from the public. It will bring you to tears what the power of Vitamin C can do! I continue to study and listen to my doctors for data yet I am the one that is my own advocate for my health. But I think you need to understand that the calcium reversal and further the correct repair of the arteries is a fairly slow process but but one of progress. I just had a wellness check with my GP and she couldn't be happier! Lucky for me she understands what I'm trying to do and has no argument over any of it. Just a smile on her face.... Know anyone that is a 2-time Nobel Prize winner and was awarded 48 PhD's over their lifetime? I do! Linus Pauling.....
Just came across this and watched the whole thing. very well done and informative

@47.00 - I think CIMT still has advantages as it is low/no radiation. Even though CT may offer more precision, it is expensive and the contrast could be very painful ..
Agreed. I use cIMT every 6 months to gauge intema soft plaque reduction .. 2yrs .. -15% ..
@jp7357 I'll do one better ! Hard calcium reversal CAC from 660 to 458 in 20 months. And if the hard Calcium is gone I would expect soft plague to be the first to go!
Hmm for some reason I can not get the video to play.

CAC and balls. Just says C A C.
Too much CAC is a problem 😂😂😂😂
This video is almost unwatchable due to how many times he says “CAC”. I love cardiac, but holy smokes…that sounds awful.
This guy Jay appears to be bored. His ho-hum presentation leaves much to be desired... and explained. Needs to a better job explaining.
