Lysine for heart bypass patients
Posted: Sat Oct 06, 2018 9:19 am
A potential customer and health professional, has "heard" that lysine can be dangerous to heart patients with bypasses... her hubby has a quad bypasses.
I pointed her to the forum and said "not to my knowledge," but ... is there any info like that "out there"? Contraindications with meds? ?
Sadly, no one has studied (and published) the use of high dose lysine on ANY patients.. So our now 20 year anecdotal and consistent experience tells me that there is NO risk for heart bypass patients to adopt Pauling's high vitamin C with high lysine therapy. (I have speculated that for new bypass patients, 6 months or less, the use of proline MIGHT be problematic, based on the Pauling/Rath UNIFIED THEORY and our experience with proline reducing Lp(a) cholesterol. So for recent by-passes, it is safest to exclude proline for a while... I'll explain more below.)
Now, the risk of plaque regrowth inside bypass graphs and stents is REAL - and restenosis is estimated at 40%. So the risk of NOT adopting Linus Pauling's dosage recommendations is high. (I cover this in my book, Practicing Medicine Without A License, which is now available on Kindle

This is the "tip" of the anecdotal evidence,

Here are some forum posts (where we have followed failures over time, most eventually have success)

Know that both vitamin C and lysine have literally no known toxic dosage (no LDL 50 - that kills half the test animals) although we believe that perhaps 14,000 is a theoretical limit for lysine. (Some will quibble, but water is more "lethal" than vitamin C.)
And at the top of the testimonials, we report on one multi year study of hundreds that showed a regression in plaque growth in the vitamin C/lysine group. This letter to me by the study author was exciting at the time, but we never heard from Kenton again?????? Dr. Hickey did find that he had filed an international patent on vitamin C/lysine/E etc before he disappeared...
