The Calcium Scan to diagnose Atherosclerosis & Vitamin C
Posted: Wed Mar 06, 2024 5:43 pm
I am rather new to this board. I am looking for those who have monitored their results by utilizing a series of Coronary calcium scans which uses special computerized tomography (CT) to look for calcium deposits in the heart arteries. Perhaps members can comment on their results using Vitamin C, Lysine & Proline therapy along with numeration of their scores over time. Whether calcium scores declined with use, how long did it take, what nutritional supplements they utilized aside from the Pauling therapy, whether their calcification was long standing as in hard plaque vs soft plaque etc. I will start off by saying that I was on the Esselstyn/Ornish program of low fat and oil and mostly raw fruits, vegetables and grains. To my chagrin, my score went up from 2200 to 2400 in 22 months despite the rigidity of the diet. I next tried the Nanobactx program whereas the score went down just 3% in 8 months. Fortunately, I am now on the Pauling therapy for one month, along with IV injections of Plaquex and on alternate days Cavadex. I am going on 82 years young...no angina, no symptoms that one would expect from hardened arteries, lots of exercise, veggies and definitely, no angiograms... no Cardiologists and no ailments.
