Coronary Atherosclerosis, the Cause of Heart Attacks, Can be Stopped

With Vitamin Program.

For the first time in medicine, direct clinical evidence has been

established that a defined

nutritional supplement program can stop coronary atherosclerosis, the

cause of heart attacks.

Following are the most important results of this study to be published

in the forthcoming issue

of the Journal of Applied Nutrition.

The study measured the growth of coronary artery calcifications, the

hallmark of coronary artery disease, in

55 patients (age 44-67) with various stages of this disease. The

patients were monitored before and during one

year of our nutritional supplement program composed of vitamins, amino

acids, minerals and trace elements.

The size of the atherosclerotic deposits and the stage of coronary

artery disease was measured by Ultrafast

Computed Tomography (UCT), a new diagnostic technique that allows the

direct measurement of the coronary

calcification non-invasively. The results can be summarized as follows:

Without optimum nutritional

supplementation coronary atherosclerosis

is a very aggressive disease with an

average annual growth rate of 44%,

Coronary heart disease can be diagnosed

early, long before symptoms develop and

it is preventable at this early stage,

Our vitamin program can stop the growth

of coronary heart disease during its early

stages in the relatively short time of one

year.

The picture shows the growth rate of coronary calcium deposits,

determined by Ultrafast CT without our vitamin program. Patients with

early stages of coronary artery disease are represented on the left hand

side, patients with advanced coronary artery disease on the right

side. The curve documents for the first time that coronary artery

disease grows exponentially. On average the calcium deposits increased

every year by 44%. Our vitamin program stops coronary artery disease

already in its early stage

This figure shows changes in the size of coronary

calcium deposits before and during the vitamin

program. Line A-B shows the increase of coronary

atherosclerosis without the vitamin program, B-C

represents the changes in the deposit size during

the first 6 months on the program. Remarkably,

during the second 6 months on the vitamin program

(C-D) coronary heart disease stopped growing. In

comparison, line B-F shows the calculated

progression of the disease without the vitamin

program. The degree of coronary calcification is

expressed in Coronary Artery Scanning (CAS) units.

In individual cases, this natural approach led to the reversal of

coronary heart disease and to the complete disappearance of calcium

deposits.

These pictures show the Ultrafast CT heart scans of a 50 year old

patient with beginning coronary heart

disease. The patient did not have any symptoms and the coronary

deposits were detected during a routine

UCT check-up (upper row). The heart cross section CT images reveal the

presence of calcified deposits in

the right and left coronary artery. After following our vitamin program

for about one year the coronary

deposits had completely disappeared in a natural way.

This study proves that it is possible to prevent America's Number One

Health Problem through a natural

approach. It should encourage health professionals, health care

providers and public policy makers to

redefine health strategies towards the control of cardiovascular

disease. Consequent implementation of

these study results should eventually eliminate heart attacks, strokes

and other forms of cardiovascular

diseases in future generations. Clinical Studies on Nutrients in Heart
