Where to Start to Reverse CVD
Posted: Mon Jul 22, 2013 7:46 pm
In my lay opinion, your husband is doing every thing right, and if he increases his vitamin C, there is every reason to believe that his upcoming testing will show that he has improved. (Is he scheduled for another nuclear stress test? Carol 2's story is that her heart was blocked, and she recovered to the point her entire heart was bright - blood flow restored - on her second thallium stress test, after starting a vitamin C and lysine product.

Hi Owen,
In answer to some questions on your forum on how I found out that my heart was clear from plaque.:::: I had a Nuclear Stress test late in 2006 that showed my heart in real distress. The pictures that the test recorded, showed that my heart's arteries were nearly completely darkened in by plaque. This means that the arteries were all clogged, i.e., getting very little oxygen. My doctor said that I needed a bypass or a stent and must start on statin drugs immediately. I turned it all down. Needless to say he was really worried. I was very sick...couldn't walk far or fast, out of breath, blue feet...I felt like I was dying. Sooooo I started taking the Linus Pauling cure that I had been reading about... smile... I started feeling better within the first week. Each time I went to see my cardiologist he would comment on how well I was doing. My EKG's were even getting better. Then I took another Nuclear Stress test in late 2007, which showed my heart to be clear of plaque.
My doctor drew a picture of before and after for me. My feet went from blue in 2006 to skin color in 2007... My cardiologist said he no longer recommends a bypass or statin drugs. I have new energy...and a new life. A few months later in 2008, I had an echo cardiogram performed which showed my heart had gone back to normal size and that my valves were working perfectly. Previous to 2006 it had been enlarged. And that's the simple truth. My doctor is still amazed. I'm still working on the AFIB. You can put this on your forum... Carol 2
I would guess your husband was not on vitamin C previously, or a very low dose. Try to get him to at least 10,000 mg of vitamin C daily. (If there are bowel issues at that dosage, some of the vitamin C can be switched to the form of Lypo-C which doesn't cause diarrhea in most people.
Vitamin C is at the crux of his problem and thus supplementation is the solution.
The Pauling/Rath invention for reversing existing CVD - is to add lysine (and later proline) to neutralize the sticky Lp(a) cholesterol. Pauling recommended 2 extra grams of lysine daily for prevention of CVD, but apparently 5000 to 6000 mg is enough for most people to reverse symptoms of cardiovascular disease (aka chronic scurvy).
The other supplements are helpful, especially vitamin E, magnesium (which will dissolve kidney stones by the way), and a Super B-complex has been Pauling's standard recommendation since 1986.
and to see if he's changed his mind on the angiogram. I don't believe we'll do another stress test for a bit but had wondered if maybe we should get an angiography now to see if there are blockages. That way no catheterization or stent. I wanted something to show his health now, besides the stress test so we can show recovery. I've been looking for a place we could get a Calcium Score CT done but so far no luck.
