He’s healthy and walks every day around the house with his walker for balance. He uses the Cheetos for the sodium and chocolate for the milk fat and for the sweet taste. He eats pretty healthy at mealtime but smaller meals. He eats Kentucky fried chicken but not red meat, it’s too hard for him to digest. He’s never had organic anything for the last 50 years. His BP and pulse and blood work is pristine. My moms 93 and has familial high blood pressure and dementia but she like me eat everything in sight.

I know 5 people from my job who took a baby aspirin everyday as a preventative and also to keep minor pains down. All 5 in late 40’s early 50’s. The Dr’s at our job said to stop taking them in 2022 because it was doing more harm. None had any heart issues. 4 of the 5 had stints put in within 9 months from stopping the baby aspirin. Their new;y acquired cardiologists said that they shouldn’t have stopped cold turkey and that they were keeping you symptom free but building up. Then stopping cold turkey accelerated the blockage, can’t believe any doctors anymore.
@@WanderingBobAK I don’t think cutting cold turkey caused, but masked the symptoms of it developing maybe. Just dont know who to trust anymore. Just living carnivore life. Rather drop dead of heart attack then slow leaching of life through pharmaceutical therapy and paying surgeons vacation houses mortgages.
@@WanderingBobAK Its like, too much conflicting information They should try nattokinase instead..it's a form of NATTO Which is really good for the blood..along with Celtic salt
Aspirin is a "blood thinner" prevents "blood clots". My healthy mother (of 9 children I am no 5) was prescribed some "blood thinner" for her heart and the result was, she had a stroke that made her lost one arm and one leg. Blood leaked into part of her brain. 1Co_3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. Taking drugs/medications daily is DEFILING your body (the temple of God) so God will destroy you with early death.
I doubt there is a study that could even come close to proving that aspirin reduces cancer 'risk' in any meaningful way. Too many uncontrolled variables.
Basically, he said, if you are healthy then why risk the side effects, if you're not then you have to decide if the benefits outweigh the risks. Personally I'd rather have the side effects of getting healthy
The trouble is in England it is very difficult to get TESTS authorised. Most medicines seem to be handed out on guesswork and on a trial and error system. We are very short of all medical staff. +
Great video, Dr Westman! Thanks for covering the topic & my video; & moving this discussion forward. I learned something from watching your video (as usual). I agree there is still a lot of gray area in the evidence, especially with most research done using subjects on the SAD diet. Lifestyle is king. After that, we have to guess whether we can skip the standard treatments for those on keto.
I personally believe that if a study requires thousands of people to show a (marginal) benefit then it's not worth it to the individual. It's worth it to the corporation, as having thousands of people taking their product every day it's very profitable for them.
I prefer to use serrapeptase and boswellia serratia (frankincense) for my husband's heart disease. Serrapeptase dissolves plaque. Frankincense is antiinflammatory and works a bit differently from your standard blood thinner because it works on reducing the inflammation that can cause blood clots. Aspirin is harmful for the digestive system.
@@helsbels5392 You can chew a small amount of frankincense resin (nasty stuff) but do not consume the essential oil unless diluted. A good way of using resin is to put a piece into a glass of water for 8+ hours (eg overnight) then you can drink the water. The piece of resin can be re-used until it no longer gives flavour to the water.
@@ancaryan Just search online how Asprin is made. This is known information. I even heard about on the Vinnie Tortorich podcast AKA Fitness Confidential several years ago because Villa Cappelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a longtime sponsor of his show, and he mentioned that interesting fact about olive oil. Big pharma knows real foods have healing powers. They try to patent or use the chemical compound in them to make their drugs.
@@ancaryan _”Salicylic acid occurs in plants as free salicylic acid and its carboxylated esters and phenolic glycosides. Several studies suggest that humans metabolize salicylic acid in measurable quantities from these plants. High-salicylate beverages and foods include beer, coffee, tea, numerous fruits and vegetables, sweet potato, nuts, and olive oil.”_ You’re welcome.
Not a medical opinion but, summarising what he said, if you have reversed your health problems then no. However, if you are already taking it, don't stop cold turkey. If you don't like the recommendations of your doctor, ask for a second opinion.
Is heart disease reversible? I know I had it before going on keto. I've been on keto 2.5 years and hope I've reversed much of the arterial damage I've done from eating poorly for over five decades.
it takes the body almost 7 days to make enough new blood cells to cancel out the effects of one aspirin dose, so the bulk of the benefits of aspirin can be obtained via only 1-3 baby aspirin per week, or about one every three days...... more than 90% of the benefit with many times less the risk of bleeding.....
I think we should ask again how a clot, that baby aspirin might prevent, forms. If we're concerned about atherosclerosis, these are plaques that cover a lesion. We want the body to repair the damage. But if the cause of the lesion continues, then things get worse and the plaque gets thicker, leading to stenosis. What then is baby aspirin supposed to do? It can't do anything about the cause of the lesion, and it shouldn't interfere with the repair process. I get the impression people think that clots just suddenly form spontaneously and block arteries, so any blood thinning drug will reduce such a likelihood. But it's simply not the case - as far as atherosclerosis is concerned.
I think plaques form over a lesion of the arterial intima(lining of the vessel). They are composed of cholesterol. The problem is the plaque can rupture and platelets then just adhere to the disrupted intima and form a clot, disrupting blood flow. That can occur with small plaques as well as large plaques. Stenosis needs to be>70% to cause diminished blood flow. Hope that helps explains “then it gets worse”. Secondary prevention. Sure would be nice to have studies to help describe aspirin for those people in the dark area:
Doc, Thanks for your debunking effort. For your next debunking video, please debunk the youtube influencers that claim to have a keto diet but tell people that ketosis is not a goal of their keto diet. Please teach people that the word keto comes from ketones, ketosis, and ketogenic and that it does not come from the word low-carb.
statins bring more money - aspirin is also good against inflammation and other chronic connected diseases - like vitamin D - prevents pharma industry from big profits
@@craig3040 yes but thousands of people are on statins & heart disease keeps increasing starting at an earlier age now too & 75% of heart attack victims have a normal cholesterol level - so... if it's not pharma benefiting, someone's still profiting from statins. And now they want to start giving them to young kids! Seriously!? Great video here but wish there was an easy answer to all this. Seems that Ketogenic or Carnivore lifestyle is the most healthy way to live regardless of what health conditions we have or if we take statins or any meds including Aspirin. Good health to you & to all. 🍖 🥓 🥩 🍗 🧈 🐟 🍳 🧀 🥛 Love Dr. Westman's videos
@@carlacaliri5385 I have never taken statins or any form of meds. I used to exercise daily for most of my life and was careful in my food choice(keto for 12 years). After having a stemi recently,I wish I had taken my doctors nagging advice as my cholesterol levels were sky high for many years and thought I was invincible being fit etc. It was the scariest wake up call of my life and don't wish it upon anyone. I now take a statin, asprin,and an anticoagulant. I only survived because I was on the operating table within 45 minutes thanks to a fantastic ambulance crew and Cardio-thoracic surgeon.Due to my experience, I can relate to Dr Alo's views more than a lot of the medical you-tubers who are not cardiologists and a few are even fraudsters. I do my homework regarding them, as google is my friend. All the best, whatever you choose.
I have a history of gastric bleeding, I am blood type O, and I am over 70. These all mean I have an increased risk of bleeding. There is no history oof heart disease in my family. When i had a CAC score done in was 420. So I have atherosclerosis. I changed my diet to very low carb and started working out 3 days a week. As Dr Eric says, that is an effective way of dealing with heart disease. Therefore I have not taken my cardiologist’s advice to take low dose aspirin or any other drug
I had a stroke over 16 years ago, was put on cardiprin, didn't like the lemon aftertaste in my mouth. Got the doc to switch to a different aspirin. It was lower dosage, but made me feels nauseous. I ended up weaning myself off any medication as being a woman, it made my heavy periods even worse & touch wood, I haven't had another stroke, just some lingering annoying after affects 😀
@@user-ht4je8gn4p if you haven't already tried it, keto/very low carb/carnivore is seemingly good after a stroke. I can certainly recommend it for brain fog and promotion of mental acuity
Has your gastric bleeding resolved with low carb? If not, have you tried kefir? Milk kefir, I recommend homemade, resolved my gut issues and has become a popular treatment for gastritis.
I have been taking aspirin for years just for general health. I have a family history of heart problems, though I understand these are probably more environmental than genetic. I guess for me it's piece of mind.
When I was 26 I had an heart operation and had to take baby aspirin for life but after 4 years it destroyed my gut so when I turned 30 I stopped taking it after finding out its not good for the gut then I switched to carnivore and I'm now 36 and feel so much better.
@WanderingBobAK it's been 6 years I took what Ever the doctors prescribed but never again I held the doctor under my care accountable for not knowing the risks dud all my research and claimed on my health the rest is ancient history I been the healthiest I've ever been.
Do you think that you should have taken a baby aspirin every other day or 2 times a week to change that? Maybe you were taking too much at 1 baby asprin a day?
Hmmm. Around timestamp 18:00, I get the impression that (1) if my condition warrants 2ndary prevention , but (2) I have altered my life style (and I’m 70 years old), am I able to diminish my “commitment” to 2ndary medication/prevention - yes? With me yet to listen to the remaining 12 minutes, I’d submit that I’d like to watch/listen to a session on (only) 2ndary realities and recommendations. I had aortic regurgitation requiring a new aortic value, mitral valve repair and what was supposed to by a single bypass become a 3X graft while he was in there. 18 months later, a ramus intermedius stent was required. Today, I’m both grateful and active w/daily exercise, and minimized, at times - no carbs.
Dr Westman could you review the video the dark side of carnivore, which talks about a studies done at Harvard where they first praised the diet in 2020 and reversed themselves in 2024. It is confusing. Thanks, John A.
Thank you dr westman. . I love your additional information ❤ i am 80 yr young female, apart from late teens, i lived a healty life style, seldom sick and only occasionally needing pharma drugs for short period of time. The genetic condition of MD runs in my family, myself also affected and for the last 5 years cardiac and respiratory functions (well known as secondary effects) have mildly affected me. This led to agreeing (for the first time in my life) to take lowest strength of two heart medications ongoing. I recently discovered that i am likely hypocalcemic, although regular bloodtest have not alerted me to this. Your podcast helped me better understand the difference bwtween primary and secondary prevention. I will first find out if i am at risk of hypocalcemia, then i will consider if taking aspirin would be beneficial for me. Again thank you for explaining so clearly this health issue❤
I used to take aspirin daily years ago in the hope of alleviating my chronic sinusitis. It eventually led to an internal bleeding in the duodenum and landed me in hospital. After gastroscopy and an interview with me, the doctors concluded my continuous intake of aspirin was the cause. I lost a lot of blood this way, which made me black out several times. It was probably the closest I came to death in my life. In the weeks afterwards I suffered from anemia and was extremely weak. There were no warning signs before it happened, no pains in the stomach or anywhere in the abdominal area. So, from personal experience I wouldn't recommend taking aspirin on a regular basis...
I have Afib. On eliquis, had a stroke October 2023. although keto for 5 years. So they put me on 81 mg aspirin as well as taking my eliquis and insisted giving me Atorvastatin. Almost a year later they still have me taking the aspirin as a extra protection.
I am 72 years old. I've had a stroke each of the past 2 years. I was on a keto/Carnivore diet and had lost 100 lbs. My latest cholesterol is 278. Other lipids are good. Docs recommended steroids. I refused. I am taking a single baby aspirin. Any advice?
SPMs belongs to G protein-coupled receptors ligands [37], and their critical role in regulating inflammation resolution has been widely documented, establishing that excessive or uncontrolled inflammation is tightly linked to a disbalance in their synthesis. Therefore, it is vital to understand every SPMs family’s role in the framework of acute and chronic inflammation [38].
I have a question (probably more, we'll see). I am new to keto / carnivore. I had chronic heart failure, a stroke, a mild heart attack or two and two stents, dropped sugar and 99% of processed foods and my Dr. has informed me I no longer have heart failure. If I continue keto and my arteries improve am I in danger of the stents losing their grip (so to speak)?
Most of the baby aspirin tables are enteric - coated, which is a special coating that serves as a barrier to prevent the gastric acids in the stomach from dissolving or degrading after you swallow them. They usually dissolve in the upper tract of the intestine. These pills don't affect your stomach lining.
I take two garlic cloves Rach day...I buy a jar of pre skinned garlic. It's in water. Not as strong to take, I' know from nose bleed the job they are doing.
Is a diagnosis of T2D, a secondary event? I have reversed it via low carb and exercise. I do take gabapentin fo PN and lowest dose statin. Should i consider a asprin as my last lab ldl was 115 for the first time over 100 i n 3 years? My mom at 83 has had a pacemaker for 15 years.
65, post MI with stents x2 placed in LAD. Noted Circumflex had 50% occlusion, no intervention. One year on Prasugrel, Second year on Plavix and am to D/C in December (2 yrs post event). Then just take ASA I suspect 81mg, but has not been discussed. On 2 statins, LDL is 27mg/dl. WAY too low! Considering going off statins all together. My cardiologist is a cookie cutter. FYI, Carnivore diet, lost 30 lbs, then stopped losing when adding cream and stevia to coffee. 2MAD, and lately OMAD, but still need to lose 15 lbs. How do I get a consult?
5. Conclusions In conclusion, our work demonstrates that SRP can attenuate the elevated inflammatory biomarkers (MCP-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-α), the production of MDA, ROS intensity, CATx, and GSH impact in the setting of LPS-induced vascular inflammation. SRP inhibits inflammation and oxidative stress through the endothelium MCP-1. We concluded that SRP has the ability to modulate vascular inflammation. Further studies will be required to explore the detailed mechanisms of the cardio-protective effects produced by SRP. These results suggest that serratiopeptidase may be a therapeutic agent for vascular inflammation in cardiovascular diseases.
This is mostly an allopathic response to a medical issue. Namely to consider only the specialists field of medicine. Aspirin has effects on the digestive system, but Drs Westman and Brewer don't even mention this, let alone consider that there is a holistic influence.
What should be done for a young person (25) with a JAK2 blood disorder, successfully treated with Pegasys. He’s on daily low dose aspirin. Doesn’t make sense that he’s prescribed aspirin b/c his blood counts are totally normal with the treatment. Surely, he hasn’t developed plaque in his arteries in his young life - but let’s assume he’s tested directly for this and comes out clean. If he has no plaque in his arteries, and the Pegasys is keeping blood counts low, is there any net benefit to taking daily low dose aspirin? It seems the aspirin is just putting him at higher risk of internal bleeding. An ulcer or just problems he could have if he gets in an accident that causes bleeding. Seems like he’d better off with an anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle and get rid of the aspirin. Anybody have thoughts on this?
What if my left subclavian artery is 90% blocked? I started aspirine 80mg yesterday. I've changed my diet about 1 month ago. Vascular surgeon talked about stent but if I can avoid it. I haven't started the statin yet...My carotid and aorta are ok. Thank you❤
An interesting video, thank you. Over here in the UK aspirin isn’t the first choice anticoagulant for AFib sufferers. I understand that randomised controlled trials have shown it to be less effective than Wafarin/DOACs at preventing clots arising from AFib but with an equivalent bleed risk.
I had it bad for three years and watched a video on the Coimbra protocol for MS. I treated my severe asthma as a autoimmune disease and took 30000-40000 IU of vitamin D daily along with 500 milligrams of magnesium and ten milligrams of boron and in three days my wheezing went away and in three weeks of high dose vitamin D my asthma was mostly resolved. I still take 10000 to 20000 IU of D daily and up it if my wheezing starts to come back.

What about a young child who was born with a CHD? If he is already on a high fat diet with loads of bulbs and other blood thinning items, no issues with blood viscosity so far or no cardiac events? What's the alternative? I feel like I'm setting him up for a lifetime of organ problems despite all my efforts with good nutrition, when there is much more against than for use of asprin if he doesn't have any issues?
Dr. Ford Brewer and MANY OTHERS have correctly adopted the highly effective Inflammation Model and ditched the ineffectual Cholesterol Model. Learn the difference between small LDL and large LDL, which one statins help, which one they don't, and why if you don't solve the primarily food and lifestyle-induced inflammation, you're not helping the patient at all.
Shouldn't we get away from the term "diet?" Most of my life whenever someone said, "I'm on a diet" or "I'm dieting" the implication was it was temporary until a certain weight goal was reached and then they would return to their normal way of eating. IMHO "diet" whether it is good or bad is the "lifestyle" we all choose and what you discuss here is a "lifestyle change," no?

The Dr’s at our job said to stop taking them in 2022 because it was doing more harm. None had any heart issues. 4 of the 5 had stints put in within 9 months from stopping the baby aspirin. Their new;y acquired cardiologists said that they shouldn’t have stopped cold turkey and that they were keeping you symptom free but building up. Then stopping cold turkey accelerated the blockage, can’t believe any doctors anymore.
Try using Celtic salt
Thanks crazy. Never heard of such a thing. Stopping aspirin cold turkey accelerating colt formation!
@@WanderingBobAK I don’t think cutting cold turkey caused, but masked the symptoms of it developing maybe. Just dont know who to trust anymore. Just living carnivore life. Rather drop dead of heart attack then slow leaching of life through pharmaceutical therapy and paying surgeons vacation houses mortgages.
@@WanderingBobAK
Its like, too much conflicting information
They should try nattokinase instead..it's a form of NATTO
Which is really good for the blood..along with Celtic salt
Aspirin is a "blood thinner" prevents "blood clots".
My healthy mother (of 9 children I am no 5) was prescribed some "blood thinner" for her heart and the result was, she had a stroke that made her lost one arm and one leg. Blood leaked into part of her brain.
1Co_3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.
Taking drugs/medications daily is DEFILING your body (the temple of God) so God will destroy you with early death.
Wasn't there a study that found aspirin lowered the cancer risk. If the powers to be say no aspirin, I'm inclined to take aspirin.
Yeah it's come to this: do opposite of standard advice
I doubt there is a study that could even come close to proving that aspirin reduces cancer 'risk' in any meaningful way. Too many uncontrolled variables.
What about aspirin and its effect on the Kidneys?
slow but sure, myths falling apart. Thank You Dr Westman.
lord have mercy just tell us yes or no to aspirin
Unfortunately life isn't like that. Nor is science. I understand your frustration though.
Basically, he said, if you are healthy then why risk the side effects, if you're not then you have to decide if the benefits outweigh the risks. Personally I'd rather have the side effects of getting healthy
As a cardiomyopathy patient and open heart surgery survivor, I took a full 325 mg aspirin for years. Was just recently switched to 81 mg.
The trouble is in England it is very difficult to get TESTS authorised. Most medicines seem to be handed out on guesswork and on a trial and error system. We are very short of all medical staff. +
Great video, Dr Westman! Thanks for covering the topic & my video; & moving this discussion forward. I learned something from watching your video (as usual). I agree there is still a lot of gray area in the evidence, especially with most research done using subjects on the SAD diet. Lifestyle is king. After that, we have to guess whether we can skip the standard treatments for those on keto.
There is a main difference - the anticoagulants are profitable, aspirin isn't
Plavix and Eliquis are ok but the new one, Brilinta is very very expensive
I personally believe that if a study requires thousands of people to show a (marginal) benefit then it's not worth it to the individual. It's worth it to the corporation, as having thousands of people taking their product every day it's very profitable for them.
12 minutes in and no answers. Please get to the point in the beginning
I prefer to use serrapeptase and boswellia serratia (frankincense) for my husband's heart disease.
Serrapeptase dissolves plaque.
Frankincense is antiinflammatory and works a bit differently from your standard blood thinner because it works on reducing the inflammation that can cause blood clots.
Aspirin is harmful for the digestive system.
Can I ask - does he take frankincense internally, or topically?
I, too would like to know about this: Serrapeptase & Frankincense... how & how often please
@@helsbels5392 You can chew a small amount of frankincense resin (nasty stuff) but do not consume the essential oil unless diluted. A good way of using resin is to put a piece into a glass of water for 8+ hours (eg overnight) then you can drink the water. The piece of resin can be re-used until it no longer gives flavour to the water.
Good quality olive oil over Asprin. The main ingredient used in Asprin is derived from olive oil. It is called Salicylic acid. Real food over drugs.
olive oil, garlic, & cayenne pepper!.....
SALICYLIC acid comes from willow tree, nothing to do with olive oil - where did you get that information?
@@ancaryan Just search online how Asprin is made. This is known information. I even heard about on the Vinnie Tortorich podcast AKA Fitness Confidential several years ago because Villa Cappelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a longtime sponsor of his show, and he mentioned that interesting fact about olive oil. Big pharma knows real foods have healing powers. They try to patent or use the chemical compound in them to make their drugs.
@@ancaryan
_”Salicylic acid occurs in plants as free salicylic acid and its carboxylated esters and phenolic glycosides. Several studies suggest that humans metabolize salicylic acid in measurable quantities from these plants. High-salicylate beverages and foods include beer, coffee, tea, numerous fruits and vegetables, sweet potato, nuts, and olive oil.”_
You’re welcome.
I get covered in hives from baby asprin....
I take an aspirin every night because I had a stroke out of the blue, and I'm healthy with a perfect heart.
If you have heart disease and plaque - but have turned things around and are now fully metabolically healthy - is Aspirin still recommended?
Not a medical opinion but, summarising what he said, if you have reversed your health problems then no. However, if you are already taking it, don't stop cold turkey. If you don't like the recommendations of your doctor, ask for a second opinion.
Is heart disease reversible? I know I had it before going on keto. I've been on keto 2.5 years and hope I've reversed much of the arterial damage I've done from eating poorly for over five decades.
Yep there’s a guy named Harry Serpanos on TH-cam who reversed his heart disease on a carnivore diet.
Research serrapeptase. It dissolves plaque.
@@carrikartes1403there are some debunking videos on that
But it's how you dissolve it can be the problem if it s covered and stable but if it leaks that's when it causes a blockage and a stroke or H ATACK
It's not that easy
it takes the body almost 7 days to make enough new blood cells to cancel out the effects of one aspirin dose, so the bulk of the benefits of aspirin can be obtained via only 1-3 baby aspirin per week, or about one every three days...... more than 90% of the benefit with many times less the risk of bleeding.....
I think we should ask again how a clot, that baby aspirin might prevent, forms. If we're concerned about atherosclerosis, these are plaques that cover a lesion. We want the body to repair the damage. But if the cause of the lesion continues, then things get worse and the plaque gets thicker, leading to stenosis. What then is baby aspirin supposed to do? It can't do anything about the cause of the lesion, and it shouldn't interfere with the repair process.
I get the impression people think that clots just suddenly form spontaneously and block arteries, so any blood thinning drug will reduce such a likelihood. But it's simply not the case - as far as atherosclerosis is concerned.
I think plaques form over a lesion of the arterial intima(lining of the vessel). They are composed of cholesterol. The problem is the plaque can rupture and platelets then just adhere to the disrupted intima and form a clot, disrupting blood flow. That can occur with small plaques as well as large plaques. Stenosis needs to be>70% to cause diminished blood flow. Hope that helps explains “then it gets worse”. Secondary prevention.
Sure would be nice to have studies to help describe aspirin for those people in the dark area:
Doc, Thanks for your debunking effort. For your next debunking video, please debunk the youtube influencers that claim to have a keto diet but tell people that ketosis is not a goal of their keto diet. Please teach people that the word keto comes from ketones, ketosis, and ketogenic and that it does not come from the word low-carb.
statins bring more money - aspirin is also good against inflammation and other chronic connected diseases - like vitamin D - prevents pharma industry from big profits
Statin patents ended many years ago,(mid 2000's) so it is unlikely to make huge money anymore for big pharma.
@@craig3040 yes but thousands of people are on statins & heart disease keeps increasing starting at an earlier age now too & 75% of heart attack victims have a normal cholesterol level - so... if it's not pharma benefiting, someone's still profiting from statins. And now they want to start giving them to young kids! Seriously!? Great video here but wish there was an easy answer to all this. Seems that Ketogenic or Carnivore lifestyle is the most healthy way to live regardless of what health conditions we have or if we take statins or any meds including Aspirin. Good health to you & to all. 🍖 🥓 🥩 🍗 🧈 🐟 🍳 🧀 🥛
Love Dr. Westman's videos
@@carlacaliri5385 I have never taken statins or any form of meds. I used to exercise daily for most of my life and was careful in my food choice(keto for 12 years). After having a stemi recently,I wish I had taken my doctors nagging advice as my cholesterol levels were sky high for many years and thought I was invincible being fit etc. It was the scariest wake up call of my life and don't wish it upon anyone. I now take a statin, asprin,and an anticoagulant. I only survived because I was on the operating table within 45 minutes thanks to a fantastic ambulance crew and Cardio-thoracic surgeon.Due to my experience, I can relate to Dr Alo's views more than a lot of the medical you-tubers who are not cardiologists and a few are even fraudsters. I do my homework regarding them, as google is my friend. All the best, whatever you choose.
@@craig3040 everyone gets it as prophylaxis after a chd incident - its the quantity that brings the money
I have a history of gastric bleeding, I am blood type O, and I am over 70. These all mean I have an increased risk of bleeding. There is no history oof heart disease in my family. When i had a CAC score done in was 420. So I have atherosclerosis. I changed my diet to very low carb and started working out 3 days a week. As Dr Eric says, that is an effective way of dealing with heart disease. Therefore I have not taken my cardiologist’s advice to take low dose aspirin or any other drug
I had a stroke over 16 years ago, was put on cardiprin, didn't like the lemon aftertaste in my mouth. Got the doc to switch to a different aspirin. It was lower dosage, but made me feels nauseous. I ended up weaning myself off any medication as being a woman, it made my heavy periods even worse & touch wood, I haven't had another stroke, just some lingering annoying after affects 😀
@@user-ht4je8gn4p if you haven't already tried it, keto/very low carb/carnivore is seemingly good after a stroke. I can certainly recommend it for brain fog and promotion of mental acuity
Has your gastric bleeding resolved with low carb? If not, have you tried kefir? Milk kefir, I recommend homemade, resolved my gut issues and has become a popular treatment for gastritis.
I have been taking aspirin for years just for general health. I have a family history of heart problems, though I understand these are probably more environmental than genetic. I guess for me it's piece of mind.
Love Doc Westman ❤
I have a CAC of 500+ and take an 81 aspirin every other day.
How do you know if you have plack
When I was 26 I had an heart operation and had to take baby aspirin for life but after 4 years it destroyed my gut so when I turned 30 I stopped taking it after finding out its not good for the gut then I switched to carnivore and I'm now 36 and feel so much better.
Did you take enteric coated aspirin?
@WanderingBobAK it's been 6 years I took what Ever the doctors prescribed but never again I held the doctor under my care accountable for not knowing the risks dud all my research and claimed on my health the rest is ancient history I been the healthiest I've ever been.
I did and it still destroyed me @WanderingBobAK
There is a gene involved with this. It should have been mentioned in the video and in the video within it.
Do you think that you should have taken a baby aspirin every other day or 2 times a week to change that? Maybe you were taking too much at 1 baby asprin a day?
Cummings has interviewed Pat Theut about reserving calcification with high dosis K2-mk4/7.
Does serratio peptidase help in primary prevention? Please have a talk on this drug. Thanks.
Why do you not discuss narrokinase 10000?
Hmmm. Around timestamp 18:00, I get the impression that (1) if my condition warrants 2ndary prevention , but (2) I have altered my life style (and I’m 70 years old), am I able to diminish my “commitment” to 2ndary medication/prevention - yes?
With me yet to listen to the remaining 12 minutes, I’d submit that I’d like to watch/listen to a session on (only) 2ndary realities and recommendations.
I had aortic regurgitation requiring a new aortic value, mitral valve repair and what was supposed to by a single bypass become a 3X graft while he was in there. 18 months later, a ramus intermedius stent was required.
Today, I’m both grateful and active w/daily exercise, and minimized, at times - no carbs.
Dr Westman could you review the video the dark side of carnivore, which talks about a studies done at Harvard where they first praised the diet in 2020 and reversed themselves in 2024. It is confusing. Thanks, John A.
Im allergic to Aspirin and take clopidogrel what are the dangers of taking clopidogrel..
Thank you dr westman. . I love your additional information ❤ i am 80 yr young female, apart from late teens, i lived a healty life style, seldom sick and only occasionally needing pharma drugs for short period of time. The genetic condition of MD runs in my family, myself also affected and for the last 5 years cardiac and respiratory functions (well known as secondary effects) have mildly affected me. This led to agreeing (for the first time in my life) to take lowest strength of two heart medications ongoing. I recently discovered that i am likely hypocalcemic, although regular bloodtest have not alerted me to this. Your podcast helped me better understand the difference bwtween primary and secondary prevention. I will first find out if i am at risk of hypocalcemia, then i will consider if taking aspirin would be beneficial for me. Again thank you for explaining so clearly this health issue❤
I used to take aspirin daily years ago in the hope of alleviating my chronic sinusitis. It eventually led to an internal bleeding in the duodenum and landed me in hospital. After gastroscopy and an interview with me, the doctors concluded my continuous intake of aspirin was the cause. I lost a lot of blood this way, which made me black out several times. It was probably the closest I came to death in my life. In the weeks afterwards I suffered from anemia and was extremely weak. There were no warning signs before it happened, no pains in the stomach or anywhere in the abdominal area. So, from personal experience I wouldn't recommend taking aspirin on a regular basis...
I wouldnt reccomend listening to a doctor that tells to to take anything!
Okay, but how much did you take per day?
Aspirin has shown to to be VERY anti-cancer as well. Look into the research here from the UK.
You haven’t said if it’s harmful to take the baby aspirin
RFKjr being in charge of HHS should help.
Oh Lord help us
Been taking baby aspirin for quite a few years kidneys top shape liver fine hscrp 0.3
ESR Low
Seems fine to me inflammation is keeping good
I have Afib. On eliquis, had a stroke October 2023. although keto for 5 years. So they put me on 81 mg aspirin as well as taking my eliquis and insisted giving me Atorvastatin. Almost a year later they still have me taking the aspirin as a extra protection.
I am 72 years old. I've had a stroke each of the past 2 years. I was on a keto/Carnivore diet and had lost 100 lbs. My latest cholesterol is 278. Other lipids are good. Docs recommended steroids. I refused. I am taking a single baby aspirin. Any advice?
Be nice if you defined between afib and pvc's and their ramifications
SPMs belongs to G protein-coupled receptors ligands [37], and their critical role in regulating inflammation resolution has been widely documented, establishing that excessive or uncontrolled inflammation is tightly linked to a disbalance in their synthesis. Therefore, it is vital to understand every SPMs family’s role in the framework of acute and chronic inflammation [38].
Good information.
I have a question (probably more, we'll see). I am new to keto / carnivore. I had chronic heart failure, a stroke, a mild heart attack or two and two stents, dropped sugar and 99% of processed foods and my Dr. has informed me I no longer have heart failure. If I continue keto and my arteries improve am I in danger of the stents losing their grip (so to speak)?
Good question!
Yes but what's the latest on whether it's reversible?
Research serrapeptase to dissolve plaque
Most of the baby aspirin tables are enteric - coated, which is a special coating that serves as a barrier to prevent the gastric acids in the stomach from dissolving or degrading after you swallow them. They usually dissolve in the upper tract of the intestine. These pills don't affect your stomach lining.
Willow Bark.
I like the new research into reversing dementia through diet.
My platelets are always over the top of the range. I am seriously considering starting baby aspirin.
Thank you, this is very helpful. I do hope there will be studies on people with hi CAC and is otherwise extremely healthy. I'm in a gray area.
I take two garlic cloves Rach day...I buy a jar of pre skinned garlic. It's in water. Not as strong to take, I' know from nose bleed the job they are doing.
Is a diagnosis of T2D, a secondary event? I have reversed it via low carb and exercise. I do take gabapentin fo PN and lowest dose statin. Should i consider a asprin as my last lab ldl was 115 for the first time over 100 i n 3 years? My mom at 83 has had a pacemaker for 15 years.
HIGH LDL IS NOT BAD😊
Look into nattokinase!
I've never taken aspirin. Well I have but only once. I had a bad reaction to it and haven't touched it since.
Aspirin is not for people who have a bad reaction to it. It's good that you discovered that early on taking it once!
Many people take aspirin and develop bleeds in the stomach. How do we keep that from happening
Could you please talk about Xarelto? Any herbs I could take to replace the 20mg I take each day?
So my CAC score is 205, 147 being the LAD. 53 years old. Should I take it baby aspirin?
65, post MI with stents x2 placed in LAD. Noted Circumflex had 50% occlusion, no intervention. One year on Prasugrel, Second year on Plavix and am to D/C in December (2 yrs post event). Then just take ASA I suspect 81mg, but has not been discussed. On 2 statins, LDL is 27mg/dl. WAY too low! Considering going off statins all together. My cardiologist is a cookie cutter. FYI, Carnivore diet, lost 30 lbs, then stopped losing when adding cream and stevia to coffee. 2MAD, and lately OMAD, but still need to lose 15 lbs.
How do I get a consult?

5. Conclusions
In conclusion, our work demonstrates that SRP can attenuate the elevated inflammatory biomarkers (MCP-1, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, and TNF-α), the production of MDA, ROS intensity, CATx, and GSH impact in the setting of LPS-induced vascular inflammation. SRP inhibits inflammation and oxidative stress through the endothelium MCP-1. We concluded that SRP has the ability to modulate vascular inflammation. Further studies will be required to explore the detailed mechanisms of the cardio-protective effects produced by SRP. These results suggest that serratiopeptidase may be a therapeutic agent for vascular inflammation in cardiovascular diseases.
This is mostly an allopathic response to a medical issue. Namely to consider only the specialists field of medicine. Aspirin has effects on the digestive system, but Drs Westman and Brewer don't even mention this, let alone consider that there is a holistic influence.
I heard low dose nattokinase is a better option for potential clots.
Or serrapeptase.
What should be done for a young person (25) with a JAK2 blood disorder, successfully treated with Pegasys. He’s on daily low dose aspirin. Doesn’t make sense that he’s prescribed aspirin b/c his blood counts are totally normal with the treatment. Surely, he hasn’t developed plaque in his arteries in his young life - but let’s assume he’s tested directly for this and comes out clean. If he has no plaque in his arteries, and the Pegasys is keeping blood counts low, is there any net benefit to taking daily low dose aspirin? It seems the aspirin is just putting him at higher risk of internal bleeding. An ulcer or just problems he could have if he gets in an accident that causes bleeding. Seems like he’d better off with an anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle and get rid of the aspirin. Anybody have thoughts on this?
What if my left subclavian artery is 90% blocked? I started aspirine 80mg yesterday. I've changed my diet about 1 month ago. Vascular surgeon talked about stent but if I can avoid it. I haven't started the statin yet...My carotid and aorta are ok. Thank you❤
High triglycerides Dr Westman, is it as bad as I'm told please, thank you Dr.
An interesting video, thank you. Over here in the UK aspirin isn’t the first choice anticoagulant for AFib sufferers. I understand that randomised controlled trials have shown it to be less effective than Wafarin/DOACs at preventing clots arising from AFib but with an equivalent bleed risk.
Anyone who has a high "Lipoprotein a" level should consider taking aspirin. More so for anyone who has plaque too.
I only recently started taking aspirin 75mg in the morning after periods of angina
So, take 81 MG as Promary and 325 as Secondary ?
Should you take baby aspirin with food to prevent acid reflux? Do you need statins? How much and which statins?

So no aspirin unless you have a higher calcium score, but still no aspirin if you have already changed your diet to low carbohydrate.
Would like to hear what’s good for acute asthmatic bronchitis
I had it bad for three years and watched a video on the Coimbra protocol for MS. I treated my severe asthma as a autoimmune disease and took 30000-40000 IU of vitamin D daily along with 500 milligrams of magnesium and ten milligrams of boron and in three days my wheezing went away and in three weeks of high dose vitamin D my asthma was mostly resolved. I still take 10000 to 20000 IU of D daily and up it if my wheezing starts to come back.
is there any way to make plaque go away

No
Interesting, because I called Lifeline and they said yes, it’s the CIMT ultrasound. How do I find out for sure!
@@kathryn5742 just called them and they confirmed that they do not do CIMT, only carotid thickness measurements. CMIT test location is not very common.

What if you have CKD?
What about a young child who was born with a CHD? If he is already on a high fat diet with loads of bulbs and other blood thinning items, no issues with blood viscosity so far or no cardiac events? What's the alternative? I feel like I'm setting him up for a lifetime of organ problems despite all my efforts with good nutrition, when there is much more against than for use of asprin if he doesn't have any issues?
Who knows if this is better than the contrary?
Dr. Ford Brewer and MANY OTHERS have correctly adopted the highly effective Inflammation Model and ditched the ineffectual Cholesterol Model.
Learn the difference between small LDL and large LDL, which one statins help, which one they don't, and why if you don't solve the primarily food and lifestyle-induced inflammation, you're not helping the patient at all.
Is Dr Ford talking about people who are standard Americans.? or carnivore keto low carb.?
The aspirin manufacturer has no problem with everyone buying their product and advertises this doctor recommendation.
Still confused
cures?
Shouldn't we get away from the term "diet?" Most of my life whenever someone said, "I'm on a diet" or "I'm dieting" the implication was it was temporary until a certain weight goal was reached and then they would return to their normal way of eating. IMHO "diet" whether it is good or bad is the "lifestyle" we all choose and what you discuss here is a "lifestyle change," no?
