Please let me know if I am posting this in an inappropriate place, I haven't learned my way around yet. It looks like one subject here is calcium I understand calcium supplementation will add to plaque formation. What about dietary calcium like skim milk, which I drink a lot? Or Kale, etc. Will that also increase deposits in arteries?
I haven't had a period in about 8 months. I am 51. My biological father and half brother died around age 50 of heart attacks. I don't know their habits. I have gone from 122 to 170 in just 1 year. I am guessing hormones. I went to a holistic doctor last week. I am being tested for hormones, insulin resistance, B12,D, and RA--I am not sure if any other tests are ordered. I also have abrupt onset of foot, knee, wrist, hand pain. It happened almost overnight before I gained the weight. It is worse in the morning after a rest and standing back up.
I an concerned. I think I am having a type of angina I feel in my jaw. I can do hard work without it usually. But, sometimes it starts with work, especially if it is bending down work. I won't have invasive tests. Diet is how I would like to handle this, drugs if necessary--just no surgery. It isn't a constant problem. I want to do maybe a juice fast plus the Ascrbade. I just ordered it. I'm already taking the key components til it gets here. I wouldn't mind taking 2 servings a day. I am little concerned about the large amount of A & E. Are those levels fine for long term use? If juice is to much sugar, I could do an Ensure fast. I read in one of your articles that it has everything you need to sustain you. I want to keep energy to develop and keep up an exercise program. I want the weight off as quickly as pssible as I believe it is really putting a strain on my heart.
I am taking clonodine (BP), cymbalta (I am not depressed but it got rid of awful nerve pain in my neck. I have direct pressure on my spinal cord in the cervical spine due to scoliosis. I also take 1 mg cloazepam daily for nerves. I am trying t wean off of it. Will any of these drugs increase my risk for heart disease? Clonodine reduces adrenalin to help dilate vessels.
Did I order the right product for my needs? I als have ordered a carbon based infrared sauna,have a salt water pool, a jacuzzi, so I can d plenty of detoxing and exercising. I als ordered Ancient Minerals Magnesium oil, and Nascent iodine. Can you give advice on how to use what I have listed, r what ther things I may need to reverse probable heart disease? Sorry for such a long post.
Thanks so much!
