Heart disease reduction with supplements

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

Let me introduce to you two sites on reducing heart disease by supplements.

First, is:

This is a good site for preventing and treating heart disease with

micronutrients, especially garlic, coenzyme Q-10, fish oils, vitamins (B6,

B12, C, and E), and folic acid.

In their conclusion they say, I think fairly:

“If a variety of healthy foods are eaten, the necessary vitamins can likely

be obtained from diet alone”.

And then, for soy is:

It was fairly good. You need again to wind your way through 9 pages,

though. It said that soybeans are safe, about 25 grams will do it and in

randomized trials it shines. However, mortality and morbidity data are

lacking.

Cheers, Al.
