Dr. Brewer. I can't say it loud enough, YOU are a hero to all of us out here keep up the great job. May God bless you with years of health so we can learn from you.
I’ve been on a seed oil free and processed food free ketogenic diet for two years. Supplement with k2, D3, zinc, nattokinase and magnesium glycinate. Daily Ashtanga yoga practice and High intensity cycling. Never felt or looked better!
@@andrewrivera4029 My diet is primarily meat based consisting of glyphosate free, grass-fed organic beef, homemade glyphosate free, A2 kefir from raw whole milk, raw cheese and corn and soy free eggs. One serving/week of wild caught salmon drenched in organic grass-fed ghee. I eat one or two spoonfuls of fermented veggies/day as well in addition to a thin slice of homemade keto bread from almond flour. One organic avocado daily. I completely avoid grains and all raw veggies. Almonds are pretty toxic, so I’m looking hard at getting rid of the keto bread.
I started wearing a Levels CGM two weeks ago. I’ve been on the Proper Human Diet since January. I was shocked to see that when I ate some stew with potatoes in it after church, my blood glucose shot up over 200! It came back down pretty quickly, but took about 2 hours to come all the way back to the 80’s. I was insulin resistant, pre-diabetic, waist 41,” 40 pounds overweight and fasting glucose of 100 prior to diet and lifestyle change. Now 35 pounds down, waist 33”, fasting glucose usually in the mid 70’s. I love your show! You, Dr. Lustig, Dr. Jamnadas, Casey Means and many others have changed my life and my health ❤
From what I have researched, it is important to store Nattokinase in a refrigerator, as it loses it efficacy if store at 20 degrees C (70 F) or higher. Also, I live in the South and make a rule to order products such as this in cool or cold weather, as they travel multiple times in hot nonrefrigerated trucks.
@@rwhubbard Not sure. Of course, it only stays hot a few minutes in the coffee, but to ensure maximum efficacy I would take it with water or a smoothie.
the best in the Cardiovascular Risk Prevention Content making field in my opinion, Dr Cywes, Dr Lustig and Pradip Jamnadas and many others are great as well, but as content makers Ford and Jesus are so prolific and so generous and so honest, funny at times. Dr Brewer cares so much, these two must have had to deal with a lot of heartache as well, a third of the worlds deaths come via cardiovascular diseases, the world is in a global health crisis its terrifying.

How am I doing? Thanks to you and your organization, I'm fine and recovering from heart disease. Getting better every day with my new diet and lifestyle changes. Thanks 😊
Thank you for posting all of the research links. I just found your channel and really appreciate your authenticity and laid back, fact focused way of communicating. I really prefer just watching or listening to intelligent people talk without all of the fancy, irrelevant clips cut in.
Thank you for this content I have been having a lot of plaque buildup. My cardiologist told me I was incorrect. Now after an emergency cardiac catheterization. I was informed that all of the veins or arteries on my left side of my heart are quite plugged. He's been assuring me for 2 years and I was wrong when I told him I felt like my heart was getting plugged up. I had a stent on the right 3 years ago. He's done multiple tests informing me that I passed with flying colors. Go home and quit worrying about your heart ,a month later I was in the hospital passed the same test was being released. They still refuse to catherize the heart saying that I couldn't pass those tests and have much plaque in my arteries.. I have a visitor who is a cardiac nurse and she told him she still having chest pain you don't know what's wrong with her heart she wouldn't be here if she wasn't sick. My visitor told the doctor that I couldn't go home until they found out what was wrong with my heart and we wanted a catheterization and that's when I told that my plaque from several years ago was extremely worse and it was in all three arteries of the left side of my heart. They can't stent I'm older and I'm diabetic. So they're basically offered me nothing gave me a few medications. I'm doing a lot of researching the supplements to help. He gave me a medication that has the side effects of brain bleeds and heart failure so obviously I'm not taking that one. I'm very interested in natto and also serrapeptase. And they ordered cardiac rehab I did not have a heart attack because I went to the hospital. With a BP of 275/115. I have been fighting diabetes for years. Please take note that your doctor cannot always be trusted. If he had performed this test two years ago like I asked I would have had more time to work on this.
I have this type of A-Fib. and the way I found it was with my Apple watch. My doctor thought it was just heart palpitations I was describing until I showed him what my ECG looked like that I captured when I was supposedly having "palpitations". As a result I'm on medication for it now to prevent it and it's working well. This video was a real "mind blown" moment for me because guess what I had years before this? I was diagnosed Type-2 Diabetic (now under control with an ultra-low carb diet so I don't need Metformin any longer), and also I had clogged arteries which I unclogged with Natto. Coincidence? I think not! Just thought I'd send that along given the content of the video. Thank you for all you guys do!
I am an A-Fib patient. I had a high frequency catheter ablation in 2014. I found that when my heart is in A-Fib I eat jalapeño pepper slices to put my heart back in rhythm.
Have you looked at Taurine and it’s effect on the atrium.? I read that it helps the atrium in some fashion and causes it to no longer have A-fib in some cases. Now, that is very important to understand. Most or all people after a certain age do not take in or create enough taurine. It’s very inexpensive and easy to take 1 or 2 or 3 capsules. So, you need to look into that with your research background. It really is a “need to know.” Taurine is also necessary throughout the body. The brain, the eyes, the liver, the kidneys… It also helps the energy level.
❤ THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! YOU HAVE ANSWERED SO MANY QUESTIONS I HAD THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE ASKED MY CARDIOLOGIST BECAUSE OF THE INDOCTRANATION HE HAS HAD IN MED SCHOOL.HE IS A GOOD DR.BUT I AM A BETTER ADVOCATE FOR MY SELF
Due to your videos, I'm on NattoKinase, Apigenin, and Aged Garlic Extract (and K2, D3) supplements. I will not take statins. I'm 67 and on Ketovore for years, eat low inflammation, and lots of exercise every day. Don't want to lose any more weight. CAC from my decades of eating bad "American Triangle" food was not the best, but I intend to stop the progress of plaque and hopefully reverse it a bit. CGM for a month showed I didn't need to pay money for CGM to just watch a line stay in the green zone the whole time, so that's under control. Still use KetoMojo and Uric Acid testers from time to time. Keep up the good info!
I like Natto myself. Dr Sean O'Mara says to have multiple types of ferments and have a little with your meat etc and masticate it all together while eating, natto is a good addition to sauerkraut, kim-chi etc. I did not know the things you said about natto (chatgpt) "Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans, using the Bacillus subtilis strain, which aids in the fermentation process and produces beneficial enzymes. This fermentation also results in the production of vitamin K2, a crucial nutrient that supports bone health and cardiovascular function by helping to regulate calcium distribution in the body." Andre
I moved to Japan years ago and it's common to eat natto in the morning for breakfast with nori. The natto packages come with Japanese mustard and soy sauce to mix with the natto. Add rice and fish for a really tasty breakfast. In Japanese grocery stores there's an entire refrigerated section filled full of different types of natto - different types taste different. There are also certain areas in Japan that specialize in natto, such as Ibaraki. It's really good and if you eat enough different types you begin to notice and appreciate the different flavors. It's like wine tasting.
First time watcher, I absolutely love you guys! You guys advise people on things we need to concern ourselves without causing us total panic….some people like me, could freak out because doctors (online) tend to scare the heck out of me, when it’s something that we need to see our doctor, but not in an ambulance.
I read of nattokinase and k2 mk7 supplements do help with clogged arteries. Consider using different oils from garlic to frankincense that also help. I’m dealing with clots and poor circulation and I thank Dr. Brewer for the knowledge he provides to people like me who are curious with all the questions that pertain to our health. 🙏
Nattokinase really does lower blood pressure....but beware, i.e., I was using 4000 mg, no problem, but when I upped the dose to 8,000 FUs I became distinctly dizzy during exercise. So, just a word of caution here.
You need at least 10,800 Fu daily. It is safe even up to 50,000 or higher to significantly reduce plaque. Calcification of plaque is mostly genetic. N.K. will only reduce the calcified plaque if started early, so you would need a CT contrast scan or angiogram (echo) to see if it has gone too far.
@@ianhodgson3484what evidence is there about need to start early? What constitutes ‘early’? And you might get someone killed saying 50,000 IU is safe. I bought nattokinase off Amazon. Took 4000 IU of it just once and my blood pressure and pulse were super elevated for 4-5 days. I’m not sure if being low carb played a factor…..or is it was a bad product (Dr.’s Best brand)……but scary experience. That said I’m only 40 - fit - but with confirmed plaques (60% in LAD), so I’m still seeking answers and wish nattokinase is that silver bullet.
I don't know which I loved more... "If you're on a low carb diet, maybe you don't need a statin," or asking the English as second person the word for consensus! Love you guys and I can relate to the word finding difficulties
I can eat 1/2 slice of whole rye bread - 16g carb - without any BG spike. However even 10g of sugar in a piece of chocolate, even with a very fatty meal, causes a large spike. Sugar is clearly the culprit for BG spikes, in my case. A CGM is essential to figure out these issues.
@@exploringbellingham9223 I've used two different CGMs - Freestyle Libre 2 and Dexcom G7. The Libre lasts for 14 days and I like the features on the reader more than the Dexcom's (I don't use a smartphone, just the manufacturer's readers). The Dexcom lasts only 10 days, but is more accurate than the Libre. Also the Dexcom can be calibrated with a finger stick result and the Libre cannot, and the Libre read high, sometimes 20 units or more, for the entire time I used it. I used the Libre two times and the Dexcom 2 times so far. Note that when you roll over onto the CGM while asleep, the BG reading will plummet, setting off the low alarm. This can be shut off on the Libre reader but the Dexcom reader will still vibrate if the audible alarm is shut off. So I have to keep it in a drawer at night. This issue makes the average BG calculated way off. CGMs are great however for watching what happens after meals and during fasts. Best used to monitor relative changes because the absolute accuracy is not great. They can be up to 20% off which is a problem if you're trying to distinguish a 100 from an 80 or 90. Note that these devices are godsends for diabetics who need to know whether they are at 300 or 150. Despite the accuracy problems, you still can map progress over time to see if your AM fasting BG is declining (or not).

We may be an outlier. But don't discount dehydration and and electrolyte imbalances. Dr. Brewer my husband suffered a left pontine stroke in October 2023. His A1c was 4.7. CRP 0.6. We were in hospital 17 days. Paroxysmal afib was observed twice while on monitor during stay. His electrolytes were askew on admission and was dehydrated, and unaddressed H bp for one year previous. He was put inappropriately (my opinion) on lipitor 40mg. Lost 20lbs in 3mo. We asked cardiologist to suspend statin because of cramping in legs at night.(Interrupted sleep is Interrupted healing). Cardiologist agreed. Husband is on 5mg of lisinopril and INR is managed with warfarin and has been perfect for 6month. We appreciate your channel very much.
He is making a "phenomenal", "amazing" recovery according to his physicians. Still in physical therapy. He had no rightside motor function but no brainbleed or sensory impairment. No cognitive deficit. And no pain. He is 85% motor recovered. Renewed driver's license last month🤩. Had hernia blowout early on after stroke,successful repair in Feb24. Cataracts removed April. we researched NIH and applied many obfuscated studies on nutritionand supplements. We are grateful for friends and family of faith who carried us through with prayerand practical help. my husband is 76yo❤thank youfor inquiring😊@@2manycatsforadime
Now 80, at about 76, started 20 mg atorvastatin daily. High tg's 350 for many years. Tg's dropped to 200 mg/dl over time but wrist and knee tendon movement became quite painful. On off tries, tendon pain trumped low tg's. Stains may also be, 4 year results on my chart, affecting my average cholesterol and HDL negatively. Started hydrophilic rosuvastatin, 5 mg, in June, '24. No tendon problems now Oct, '24. Lipid test coming up Nov 1, '24. Waiting for results.
Two things: 1) Those are not kanji characters. Those are Korean alphabet characters. 2) If you want nattokinase in its most natural form, get natto at your local Asian supermarket. Natto comes in 100 gm styrofoam packets usually stacked in a 2-pack, a 3-pack, or a 4-pack. The best natto comes from Japan and is shipped/stored frozen and once you defrost it it is natto in its purest form. The nattokinase you have in the video is not pure natto but rather processed, i.e., freeze-dried, which robs it of its purity and consequently its nattokinase efficacy and nattokinase benefits. Oh, and natto itself is much cheaper than nattokinase. You cannot order natto on Amazon because natto is stored frozen/fresh.
@@noeldeal8087 Well, I eat it every M-F for afternoon snack at work. It is not a chocolate candy bar by any means, but it still tastes good to me. Admittedly, it is an acquired taste. You should try it with mustard and soy sauce - which is what most Japanese do, and most natto packets include in the styrofoam pack. Good luck and good health to you!
@@veronicaatkinson9306 any Asian supermarket, preferably Japanese or Chinese, should have it. It will be in the frozen section. If you ask a store clerk, you should say "not-tow" (correct pronunciation) not nay-toe (incorrect). Good luck and good health to you!
@@all4onejerzyd.344 Jerzy I do not know much about nattokinase itself. I only know that nattokinase has enormous health benefits and the most natural form of nattokinase is in the food "natto". See my above post about natto. As for cooking natto, I asked a friend of mine in Japan and he said it is well known (in Japan where natto is eaten on a daily basis) that when natto comes into contact with heat (some Japanese eat natto on top of hot rice), the heat kills some of the bacterium that produces the beneficial nattokinase protein. In other words, if you cook or heat the natto, you will reduce its beneficial effects. Most people eat natto raw, or with mustard and "tare" sauce (which comes with almost every packet of natto), or they add some kimchi on top of the natto. I take my natto out of the freezer about 1 hour before eating it. After an hour, the natto has a slimy (almost like snot) texture. Once defrosted, I eat it raw without mustard, tare sauce, or kimchi. It took me at least one year to acquire a taste for just plane natto, but I was eventually able to do it. I break my fast with natto and usually with a hard boiled egg . All the best to you!
My mom said that she and this was back in the fifties fed me a raw egg in a whatever they use back for baby mixtures in a bottle when I was a baby and I was the only child out of the four that she did that to for some reason and I think I am the healthiest one out of the four kids to this day but I do neglect my egg eating bought that little voice in my head saying go get those wonderful pasture-raised eggs that tastes so good and start making some recipes with them so I'm going to do that like yesterday but I did yesterday start taking the D3 with the K2 and I'm serious one capsule and they're only 2500 IU's I didn't want to start out with a 5,000 and wow I noticed a huge difference immediately and that was a tip from one of your videos that I just clung to my brain went out and got some the next day thanks for that
At 14:05 I just found out what kind of A-FIB that I have had all my life and my doctors have only said A-FIB, I don't get the fluttering sensation my heart just skips a beat, I don't feel anything at all. Every 5 or 6 beats it will randomly skip I'm 68 now and take Nattokinase and Serrapeptase. I still take propranolol for my tremors and oxybutyn for incontinence from the Maderna shot.
FYI…… i’m a 70-year-old female. I just recently traced the cause of my heart skipping beats. It turns out that ( for me) it was decaffeinated, Diet Coke, and decaffeinated coffee. I stopped, consuming anything decaffeinated, and the palpitations went away. So in my opinion, there must be something in the process of decaffeinating that doesn’t agree with my system. It wouldn’t hurt to give it a try. avoid decaffeinated products for a week or so and see for yourself. I hope this helps.
Check out Dr Randall K. Wolf at Houston Methodist Hospital, Debakey Cardiology in Houston Texas. He invented a Procedure nick named Wolf Mini-Maze to heal people with AFIB. Success rate is about 97%. I had mine in Dec 2020 and am AFIB free.
@@janetbishop6031 I don't drink decaffeinated coffees and I hate the taste of diet drinks. In fact diet drinks are really bad for the body except for a couple of natural sweeteners. People trying to lose weight should never drink diet pop because it actually makes the body crave the sugars. That's why people fail so often when dieting. It is one of the big secrets of the diet industry.
Same here,permanent AFib with no fluttering,just skip heartbeat once in a while for at least 20 years,I added taurine 1 to 2 capsules a day and it seems to work.Also taking nattokinase,serappeptase and magnesium.
@@Jake1122-jc1ry I have had varying types of irregular heart beats for many years. Now 80, they have become progressively commonplace. My KardiaMobile 6L device, (about 1.5 by 3 inches) allows me to store and save/view PDF EKG's going back for several years. This makes it easy to read the EKG intervals which will show normal sinus rhythms, Afib problems, and so on. What was useful for me, was after showing multiple EKGs to my doc, there were no real problems.
I recommend hot yoga four times per week and a diet combining nattokinase, grass-fed beef, olive oil, goat milk kefir, coconut milk, fermented vegetables, and a small amount of grass-fed organ meat. This will change your gut microbiome and reduce inflammation. This may also dramatically reduce depression and improve mood for many non-responsive to SSRIs.
I've been on nattokinase daily for 6 years. Sometimes, with lumbrokinase in the middle of the night. And baby aspirin 2x week. Recently discovered your channel. Great stuff. Sane and advanced. Thanks alot. (Ps I fired my stroke Dr's in 2018 and researched hours daily, finally weaning myself off their anticoagulants... and substituting natto, lumbro, kinases.... and serrapeptase. Note maybe make sure soybeans are non gmo in the natto. Ready to mine your channel for more insights. Just watched the LDL one... fascinating. Wow ok see below (but i was a health freak for decades super athlete ok guess what I'm making a wild guess that many weird strokes arenlike mine. Largely from unknown congenital minor arterial deformities (ant I needed to stop standing on me head every day. For real.) Great channel. Love it. Gracias a Jesús tambien!!
Nattokinase definitely lowers the fibrin in blood. I tested before and after. One must be cautious with aspirin with it. Start low and slow ... early days, I had very slight bruising. It also definitely lowers BP. I kept track. ... There are many articles NIH pubmed. (Btw I am 70. 120/5'6")
I survived a severe heart attack in February this year and have been viewing your almost ever since. Thanks for all the valuable information that you share. I just found out that I am APOE 3/4 , Have you ever addressed the APOE issue and how does that impact consuming eggs. I have also become a big fan of Natto!
I wish there was a list of the best brands to use and how to use them. We also need to know how to take our supplements correctly. What time of day, what do we take with our supplements to make them effective?
Recently started on 3000mg omega 3 DHA/EPA from algae oil capsules to bring down triglycerides blood level, raise HDL bring down oxidation of LDL. Widening of arteries, bringing down blood pressure. Recognised aspects of omega 3 shortcomings... Insulin resistance, fald, high blood sugar, signs of pre diabetes
Hi Dr Brwer and Jesus, I have atrial fibrillation and recently had catheter ablation, I didn't have prediabetes, I am now looking at getting Nottokinase
Thanks for sharing! & good luck with that a fib. Did you see our aspirin video from a couple of weeks ago. Atrial fib is a big part of that video (when not to use aspirin)
Can’t find the subscriptions button. But I am so glad I started listening to this programs. I have been advised to have an angiogram but have put it off. I am waiting to have the CT instead but have to wait 5 months do yiu think that a wise choice
Strokes I believe is caused by atrial fibrillation. My wife died from 2strokes; first was ischemic and the 2nd was hemorrhagic which killed her. Due to age of 86,she could not have ablation. She had it most of the time which was not aware of. Could anything else have been done?
I have been diet controlled diabetic for 18 yrs. For me, I could eat oat groats( the whole kernal of wheat, very good) and not have major spikes, Unless I would have berries with it. I learned I can eat certain things, just not at the same time.
It's also been shown that eating proteins and fat BEFORE carbs helps to reduce insulin spikes in type 2 diabetics. I suspect that it is also true in non-diabetics, but there is no evidence that I am aware of. By virtue of the fact that a huge % of the population has metabolic syndrome, maybe not a bad tactic - unlikely to hurt and likely to help.
Oh, oh...I didn't realize Dr. Brewer landed in South Carolina for part of the week. I have been referring to some of your content with local Charleston (MUSC/Roper) physicians. I sent my primary care physician (MUSC) a copy (anonymously) of "Lies I taught in Medical School." When I last saw him, I dropped nine papers on him. They disputed his statin prescription.
Based on this information, I plan to make a nattokinase salt, mix one capsule with Himalayan salt in a salt shaker from dollar store. I get requests for my specialty salt shakers starting with umami lions mane with Mg L-Threonate, so am expanding to include nattokinase salt.
But there are contra indications with Nattokinase and that would be if the patient/person is on an anti-coagulent. I read that bleeding problems could happen including brain bleed. I have yet to hear any information on this. My cardiologist hardly knew what Natto was.
My cardiologist had a patient suffer brain bleed on nattokinase. I also had negative effect….bp shot up to 150/90 and pulse in 90’s for 4 days…..nothing brought it down.
It's the prescription anti-coagulant that makes you a "bleeder". Natto is known to remove excess fibrin from the blood, but never too much. If you take Natto and cut yourself, the blood will flow a little smoother and longer than "usual" and then clot normally. If you use prescription anti-coagulant Warfarin, your cut could make you bleed to death before you could reach the hospital. I told my doctor about Natto and he said "This is exactly what I need in my practice", but later he said " They won't let me use it- the prescription med is more controlled."
I also have a proclivity for skin cancers. Have had probably 30 or 40 removed PLUS extreme facial reconstruction about 5 times. Last major reconstruction on my eyes and adjacent tissure surrounding.
Hi. I am 74 and just had a calcium score of 96 and they said my hearts age is 55 to 59. How reliable is a calcium score? Thanks Love your very informative video’s.
@@TheManGrant CAC is useless measures only the hard NOT the deadly soft one only CIMT measures soft one and statins raise CAC to stabilize plaque Cummins is a fraud if he really believes this!
@@noeldeal8087Your correct but only marginally. Vitamin D is used by the body for many reasons including to help direct calcium be drawn in from our gut after we eat. The K2 is important because it directs the body as to the proper place to put the calcium like the bones so that it doesn't get put into soft tissues.
I have been eating one meal a day for 8 years, but in the evening. How can I change to eating early in the day when I am not hungry then. I watched one of your videos, where you said that meal should be early in the day. I don't think we should eat when we are not hungry. Would you advise a whole day of fasting before switching.
Is there a difference between atrial fib and SVT or are they in the same category or is there a total difference between the two SVT is supraventricular tachycardia for anybody who doesn't know what the letters stands for
I see the same people at the gym, day after day, month after month, year after year, doing ridiculously bad hard workouts. Sure they have muscle, but they also have a gut. What they just don't seem to understand is that you cannot win the war at the gym. You must win it at home in the kitchen. They can control how many reps they do, but they cannot control what they put in their mouth.
Didn’t realize you spent time at my alma mater in the Classic City. From one M.D. to another and an old RxDawg in another life. Stay healthy. Wear sunscreen. And Go Dawgs!
Only the second person I have seen on TH-cam talk about NATO my question is why are you not using the fresh version where you mix the beans up in the cup for roughly 100 times they say do you feel that you’re losing any amount or any benefit of the NATO by using a powdered version
@@MissFrog... I am in the United States and I looked at the Amazon US and didn’t see it was mostly pills and one powder that was a different brand. I would love to know where I can get the same brand as Dr Brewer was displaying.
I recently found out I have a CAC score of 143. I’m 46, not overweight and not diabetic. My glucose has always been around 90. Since I learned this I’ve drastically altered my diet, increased exercise. I’ve lost 18 lbs and got my once high triglycerides to normal and lowered my cholesterol which was always high-ish. I’m confused as to why I have such a high cac score. I do take K2/D3 and eat natto. Doc has me set up with a low dose every other day statin. I really don’t want the statin but I understand it’s probably necessary for me.
Sooo, if Natto creates K2 - can we just take a K2 supplement instead of fiddling with Natto? There seems to be some confusion as to taking the right Natto - what if people live in small towns that don't have asian supermarkets?
I heard Dr. Judy Mikovits speak on nattokinase supplements and she mentioned some of them are bypassing a major pathway and she only recommends Nutritional Frontiers? Nattokin Plus. Said that they formulated it more responsibly to work properly like the actual food, natto. I looked it up and it was expensive. So I am eating natto from my local health food store. Takes some getting used to.
I took Nato (6K FU) daily for six months, but unfortunately I developed gynecomastia and had to stop. I'm male 52 years old. I do well with all kinds of supplements but apparently more sensitive for side effects with Nato. I might go back to it later with lower dosage but I heard that one should be taking over 8K FU to get the best benefits for cardiovascular condition.
Lack of magnesium, my late mother @83 had episodes of racing pulse(220bpm) gave 5-6ozs/day & eliminated her problem.I put it down to the magnesium content
I also have racing heart 193 200 went to hospital gave me adrenalin not sure spelled right, it jumped the beat of my heart. Putting it back on it's correct rhythm. I take no meds until the hospital visits. Still no meds. Found out magnesium extremely good plus vitamin C and Hawthorn berry. There is much more going on. Over weight not able to lose. Inflation. Going to detox parasites. Blood test says nothing. Need help but it takes finances, SS doesn't go far. I also B1 Thiamine and fat soluble Benfotiamine helping. Nattokinase is great. Its hard to gather all information and understanding. I going back to foods and herbs. Keto caused sludge gallbladder and liver became sore. Stay away from sugar use Stevia low carbs. I am 68 no shots. Well this is the first time I written anything about self always looking to help others. I love you John 13:34-35 HalleluYah
I can confirm this on my own example that sometimes I had an accelerated heart rate, at the moment I don't have it, but I regularly supplement with magnesium, in my study of various forms of magnesium, I think that magnesium taurate works best because it has a beneficial effect on the heart, 2x a day 500 mg in the morning and evening, washed down with only water. In addition to reducing blood pressure, magnesium taurate may have an overall cardioprotective effect-meaning that it may protect heart health. This could be due to its antioxidant properties, or its ability to reduce cell damage caused by oxidative stress.
In my coffee Nattokinase recipe (no sugar of course but few gram of glycine), i add a few drop of strong cayenne pepper sauce to facilitate absorption of this natto into the circulation. What do you think ?
Excellent video. Since Dr. Brewer brought up A-Fib, I’ve read high amounts of fish oil (which has been recommended to me by my MD - 4g daily) may cause A-Fib. Dr. Brewer, would you address this in a video, please?
My theory is, if plaque is a result of an arterial version of "leaky gut" then it would make sense that higher LDL or Apo B levels would cause.more particles to leak through the intima layer. Using a statin to lower the number of particles could lower your heart attack risk. Going on a low carb diet would then heal the leaky intima layer and your LDL can no longer leak through, so your heart attack risk is no longer reduced by taking a statin because no matter how high your LDL is, they can't leak through to cause plaque.
Thank you for all the informative videos. Question: I bought the Nattovena but after watching many of your and other videos...is it safe to take not knowing if my plaque buildup is soft or hardened? I will be looking for a Cardiologist this week anyway.
I hope that Dr Brewer will listen to people on this channel and reduce the length of the ever so long videos. The good content can be delivered in 10min instead of 60min. Thanks for listening
👋 Hi Love your content! I’m 61 with an 8 year old I’m trying to stay alive for till I’m at least 75 and last year I diagnosed with a 1335 calcium score 🤯 and about 25% blockages. After I started intermittent fasting and lost 45 lbs and maintaining it. Feel pretty good and am pretty active work wise as I’m a Plumber. I drink mushroom coffee every morning and take vitamin K2 with vitamin D and take a baby aspirin every night before bed. Do you think I should add the Nattokinase to my regimen. I was prescribed a statin but don’t take it! The mushroom coffee really works on inflammation as I used to not be able to sleep from the pain in my shoulder and arm from a torn rotator cuff but barely even know it’s there after drinking the mushroom coffee for about 3 weeks!!! Also drink Kachava a few times a week as a buffer! Try and eat mostly healthy. 2 eggs everyday Please let me know your thoughts! Greatly appreciated thank you ❤

I’ve been on a seed oil free and processed food free ketogenic diet for two years. Supplement with k2, D3, zinc, nattokinase and magnesium glycinate. Daily Ashtanga yoga practice and High intensity cycling. Never felt or looked better!
Sounds like you are doing well.
Congratulations.
Awesome! Don’t change a thing but if you do do the carnivore diet for 90 days and you’ll be even hotter!😊😊😊😊
@@andrewrivera4029 My diet is primarily meat based consisting of glyphosate free, grass-fed organic beef, homemade glyphosate free, A2 kefir from raw whole milk, raw cheese and corn and soy free eggs. One serving/week of wild caught salmon drenched in organic grass-fed ghee. I eat one or two spoonfuls of fermented veggies/day as well in addition to a thin slice of homemade keto bread from almond flour. One organic avocado daily. I completely avoid grains and all raw veggies. Almonds are pretty toxic, so I’m looking hard at getting rid of the keto bread.
great comment Yogiholic! Thanks mate, Andre
@@Yogiholicwhat are the biggest problems with almonds
I started wearing a Levels CGM two weeks ago. I’ve been on the Proper Human Diet since January. I was shocked to see that when I ate some stew with potatoes in it after church, my blood glucose shot up over 200! It came back down pretty quickly, but took about 2 hours to come all the way back to the 80’s. I was insulin resistant, pre-diabetic, waist 41,” 40 pounds overweight and fasting glucose of 100 prior to diet and lifestyle change. Now 35 pounds down, waist 33”, fasting glucose usually in the mid 70’s.
I love your show! You, Dr. Lustig, Dr. Jamnadas, Casey Means and many others have changed my life and my health ❤
How long has it been since you made the lifestyle change?
From what I have researched, it is important to store Nattokinase in a refrigerator, as it loses it efficacy if store at 20 degrees C (70 F) or higher.
Also, I live in the South and make a rule to order products such as this in cool or cold weather, as they travel multiple times in hot nonrefrigerated trucks.
Thank you.
So, wouldn't putting it in hot coffee be a bad idea?
@@rwhubbard Not sure. Of course, it only stays hot a few minutes in the coffee, but to ensure maximum efficacy I would take it with water or a smoothie.
That is why Natto ( which has high Nattokinase ) is always keep in the fridge in the store.
Nattoki asking tablet form maybe not but I guess it doesn't hurt.
I love this topic! Dr. Brewer and Dr Jesus Vega are a good team!
the best in the Cardiovascular Risk Prevention Content making field in my opinion, Dr Cywes, Dr Lustig and Pradip Jamnadas and many others are great as well, but as content makers Ford and Jesus are so prolific and so generous and so honest, funny at times. Dr Brewer cares so much, these two must have had to deal with a lot of heartache as well, a third of the worlds deaths come via cardiovascular diseases, the world is in a global health crisis its terrifying.

Looking foward to the egg results.
Thank you for posting all of the research links. I just found your channel and really appreciate your authenticity and laid back, fact focused way of communicating. I really prefer just watching or listening to intelligent people talk without all of the fancy, irrelevant clips cut in.
Thank you for this content I have been having a lot of plaque buildup. My cardiologist told me I was incorrect. Now after an emergency cardiac catheterization. I was informed that all of the veins or arteries on my left side of my heart are quite plugged. He's been assuring me for 2 years and I was wrong when I told him I felt like my heart was getting plugged up. I had a stent on the right 3 years ago. He's done multiple tests informing me that I passed with flying colors. Go home and quit worrying about your heart ,a month later I was in the hospital passed the same test was being released. They still refuse to catherize the heart saying that I couldn't pass those tests and have much plaque in my arteries.. I have a visitor who is a cardiac nurse and she told him she still having chest pain you don't know what's wrong with her heart she wouldn't be here if she wasn't sick. My visitor told the doctor that I couldn't go home until they found out what was wrong with my heart and we wanted a catheterization and that's when I told that my plaque from several years ago was extremely worse and it was in all three arteries of the left side of my heart. They can't stent I'm older and I'm diabetic. So they're basically offered me nothing gave me a few medications. I'm doing a lot of researching the supplements to help. He gave me a medication that has the side effects of brain bleeds and heart failure so obviously I'm not taking that one. I'm very interested in natto and also serrapeptase. And they ordered cardiac rehab I did not have a heart attack because I went to the hospital. With a BP of 275/115. I have been fighting diabetes for years. Please take note that your doctor cannot always be trusted. If he had performed this test two years ago like I asked I would have had more time to work on this.
Doc, eggs for 55 years.....pretty much daily... You're the man.
I have this type of A-Fib. and the way I found it was with my Apple watch. My doctor thought it was just heart palpitations I was describing until I showed him what my ECG looked like that I captured when I was supposedly having "palpitations". As a result I'm on medication for it now to prevent it and it's working well. This video was a real "mind blown" moment for me because guess what I had years before this? I was diagnosed Type-2 Diabetic (now under control with an ultra-low carb diet so I don't need Metformin any longer), and also I had clogged arteries which I unclogged with Natto. Coincidence? I think not! Just thought I'd send that along given the content of the video. Thank you for all you guys do!
I am an A-Fib patient. I had a high frequency catheter ablation in 2014. I found that when my heart is in A-Fib I eat jalapeño pepper slices to put my heart back in rhythm.
Consider the
"Watchman"
procedure...for
A-fib. No more
medications!
Look it up on Google.
Have you looked at Taurine and it’s effect on the atrium.?
I read that it helps the atrium in some fashion and causes it to no longer have A-fib in some cases.
Now, that is very important to understand.
Most or all people after a certain age do not take in or create enough taurine.
It’s very inexpensive and easy to take 1 or 2 or 3 capsules.
So, you need to look into that with your research background.
It really is a “need to know.”
Taurine is also necessary throughout the body.
The brain, the eyes, the liver, the kidneys…
It also helps the energy level.
I just stated l-taurine advised by another dr who is all natural

❤ THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! YOU HAVE ANSWERED SO MANY QUESTIONS I HAD THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE ASKED MY CARDIOLOGIST BECAUSE OF THE INDOCTRANATION
HE HAS HAD IN MED SCHOOL.HE IS A GOOD DR.BUT I AM A BETTER ADVOCATE FOR MY SELF
Thank you very much!
So glad I found you Dr. Ford Brewer, my nephew who lives in the Dominican Republic introduced you to the family in our family group.
Due to your videos, I'm on NattoKinase, Apigenin, and Aged Garlic Extract (and K2, D3) supplements. I will not take statins. I'm 67 and on Ketovore for years, eat low inflammation, and lots of exercise every day. Don't want to lose any more weight. CAC from my decades of eating bad "American Triangle" food was not the best, but I intend to stop the progress of plaque and hopefully reverse it a bit. CGM for a month showed I didn't need to pay money for CGM to just watch a line stay in the green zone the whole time, so that's under control. Still use KetoMojo and Uric Acid testers from time to time. Keep up the good info!
Thank you very much for the very informative health programs. Your so candid and truthful.
I like Natto myself. Dr Sean O'Mara says to have multiple types of ferments and have a little with your meat etc and masticate it all together while eating, natto is a good addition to sauerkraut, kim-chi etc. I did not know the things you said about natto (chatgpt) "Natto is a traditional Japanese food made from fermented soybeans, using the Bacillus subtilis strain, which aids in the fermentation process and produces beneficial enzymes. This fermentation also results in the production of vitamin K2, a crucial nutrient that supports bone health and cardiovascular function by helping to regulate calcium distribution in the body." Andre
I moved to Japan years ago and it's common to eat natto in the morning for breakfast with nori. The natto packages come with Japanese mustard and soy sauce to mix with the natto. Add rice and fish for a really tasty breakfast. In Japanese grocery stores there's an entire refrigerated section filled full of different types of natto - different types taste different. There are also certain areas in Japan that specialize in natto, such as Ibaraki. It's really good and if you eat enough different types you begin to notice and appreciate the different flavors. It's like wine tasting.

Thank you 👍🏼 for sharing 🙏🏼.
As I am not a doctor, I wonder if the undiagnosed insulin resistance somehow starts to cause electrical issues with heart?
First time watcher, I absolutely love you guys! You guys advise people on things we need to concern ourselves without causing us total panic….some people like me, could freak out because doctors (online) tend to scare the heck out of me, when it’s something that we need to see our doctor, but not in an ambulance.
I read of nattokinase and k2 mk7 supplements do help with clogged arteries. Consider using different oils from garlic to frankincense that also help. I’m dealing with clots and poor circulation and I thank Dr. Brewer for the knowledge he provides to people like me who are curious with all the questions that pertain to our health. 🙏
How does the frankincense work for clogged arteries?
If everyone who listened to this video took the first 1 min and 15 seconds to heart we’d be healthy nation…
U guys r great team..
Personal n humourous..
Makes my day
Nattokinase really does lower blood pressure....but beware, i.e., I was using 4000 mg, no problem, but when I upped the dose to 8,000 FUs I became distinctly dizzy during exercise. So, just a word of caution here.
Daily 12000, never a problem.
Working out too hard without carb loading got me dizzy a few times
You need at least 10,800 Fu daily. It is safe even up to 50,000 or higher to significantly reduce plaque. Calcification of plaque is mostly genetic. N.K. will only reduce the calcified plaque if started early, so you would need a CT contrast scan or angiogram (echo) to see if it has gone too far.
Daily 16000fu and no probs
@@ianhodgson3484what evidence is there about need to start early? What constitutes ‘early’? And you might get someone killed saying 50,000 IU is safe. I bought nattokinase off Amazon. Took 4000 IU of it just once and my blood pressure and pulse were super elevated for 4-5 days. I’m not sure if being low carb played a factor…..or is it was a bad product (Dr.’s Best brand)……but scary experience. That said I’m only 40 - fit - but with confirmed plaques (60% in LAD), so I’m still seeking answers and wish nattokinase is that silver bullet.
I don't know which I loved more... "If you're on a low carb diet, maybe you don't need a statin," or asking the English as second person the word for consensus! Love you guys and I can relate to the word finding difficulties
I can eat 1/2 slice of whole rye bread - 16g carb - without any BG spike. However even 10g of sugar in a piece of chocolate, even with a very fatty meal, causes a large spike. Sugar is clearly the culprit for BG spikes, in my case. A CGM is essential to figure out these issues.
Have you tried ACV before you have any sweet to reduce the BG spike?
@@veronicaatkinson9306 Unfortunately I cannot tolerate ACV, even diluted.
What cgm did you use
@@exploringbellingham9223 I've used two different CGMs - Freestyle Libre 2 and Dexcom G7. The Libre lasts for 14 days and I like the features on the reader more than the Dexcom's (I don't use a smartphone, just the manufacturer's readers). The Dexcom lasts only 10 days, but is more accurate than the Libre. Also the Dexcom can be calibrated with a finger stick result and the Libre cannot, and the Libre read high, sometimes 20 units or more, for the entire time I used it. I used the Libre two times and the Dexcom 2 times so far. Note that when you roll over onto the CGM while asleep, the BG reading will plummet, setting off the low alarm. This can be shut off on the Libre reader but the Dexcom reader will still vibrate if the audible alarm is shut off. So I have to keep it in a drawer at night. This issue makes the average BG calculated way off. CGMs are great however for watching what happens after meals and during fasts. Best used to monitor relative changes because the absolute accuracy is not great. They can be up to 20% off which is a problem if you're trying to distinguish a 100 from an 80 or 90. Note that these devices are godsends for diabetics who need to know whether they are at 300 or 150. Despite the accuracy problems, you still can map progress over time to see if your AM fasting BG is declining (or not).

We may be an outlier. But don't discount dehydration and and electrolyte imbalances. Dr. Brewer my husband suffered a left pontine stroke in October 2023. His A1c was 4.7. CRP 0.6. We were in hospital 17 days. Paroxysmal afib was observed twice while on monitor during stay. His electrolytes were askew on admission and was dehydrated, and unaddressed H bp for one year previous. He was put inappropriately (my opinion) on lipitor 40mg. Lost 20lbs in 3mo. We asked cardiologist to suspend statin because of cramping in legs at night.(Interrupted sleep is Interrupted healing). Cardiologist agreed. Husband is on 5mg of lisinopril and INR is managed with warfarin and has been perfect for 6month. We appreciate your channel very much.

Two things:
1) Those are not kanji characters. Those are Korean alphabet characters.
2) If you want nattokinase in its most natural form, get natto at your local Asian supermarket. Natto comes in 100 gm styrofoam packets usually stacked in a 2-pack, a 3-pack, or a 4-pack. The best natto comes from Japan and is shipped/stored frozen and once you defrost it it is natto in its purest form. The nattokinase you have in the video is not pure natto but rather processed, i.e., freeze-dried, which robs it of its purity and consequently its nattokinase efficacy and nattokinase benefits. Oh, and natto itself is much cheaper than nattokinase. You cannot order natto on Amazon because natto is stored frozen/fresh.
Yes, but not one wants to eat it!!
@@noeldeal8087 Well, I eat it every M-F for afternoon snack at work. It is not a chocolate candy bar by any means, but it still tastes good to me. Admittedly, it is an acquired taste. You should try it with mustard and soy sauce - which is what most Japanese do, and most natto packets include in the styrofoam pack. Good luck and good health to you!
@@PaulbylPaulbylwhere do you get your Natto from?
@@veronicaatkinson9306 any Asian supermarket, preferably Japanese or Chinese, should have it. It will be in the frozen section. If you ask a store clerk, you should say "not-tow" (correct pronunciation) not nay-toe (incorrect). Good luck and good health to you!
@@all4onejerzyd.344 Jerzy I do not know much about nattokinase itself. I only know that nattokinase has enormous health benefits and the most natural form of nattokinase is in the food "natto". See my above post about natto. As for cooking natto, I asked a friend of mine in Japan and he said it is well known (in Japan where natto is eaten on a daily basis) that when natto comes into contact with heat (some Japanese eat natto on top of hot rice), the heat kills some of the bacterium that produces the beneficial nattokinase protein. In other words, if you cook or heat the natto, you will reduce its beneficial effects. Most people eat natto raw, or with mustard and "tare" sauce (which comes with almost every packet of natto), or they add some kimchi on top of the natto. I take my natto out of the freezer about 1 hour before eating it. After an hour, the natto has a slimy (almost like snot) texture. Once defrosted, I eat it raw without mustard, tare sauce, or kimchi. It took me at least one year to acquire a taste for just plane natto, but I was eventually able to do it. I break my fast with natto and usually with a hard boiled egg . All the best to you!
Great video. What kind and daily dosage if nattokinise? id prefer capsules. And can it be taken with k2 mk7?? Thanks.
My mom said that she and this was back in the fifties fed me a raw egg in a whatever they use back for baby mixtures in a bottle when I was a baby and I was the only child out of the four that she did that to for some reason and I think I am the healthiest one out of the four kids to this day but I do neglect my egg eating bought that little voice in my head saying go get those wonderful pasture-raised eggs that tastes so good and start making some recipes with them so I'm going to do that like yesterday but I did yesterday start taking the D3 with the K2 and I'm serious one capsule and they're only 2500 IU's I didn't want to start out with a 5,000 and wow I noticed a huge difference immediately and that was a tip from one of your videos that I just clung to my brain went out and got some the next day thanks for that
At 14:05 I just found out what kind of A-FIB that I have had all my life and my doctors have only said A-FIB, I don't get the fluttering sensation my heart just skips a beat, I don't feel anything at all. Every 5 or 6 beats it will randomly skip I'm 68 now and take Nattokinase and Serrapeptase. I still take propranolol for my tremors and oxybutyn for incontinence from the Maderna shot.
FYI…… i’m a 70-year-old female. I just recently traced the cause of my heart skipping beats. It turns out that ( for me) it was decaffeinated, Diet Coke, and decaffeinated coffee. I stopped, consuming anything decaffeinated, and the palpitations went away. So in my opinion, there must be something in the process of decaffeinating that doesn’t agree with my system. It wouldn’t hurt to give it a try. avoid decaffeinated products for a week or so and see for yourself. I hope this helps.
Check out Dr Randall K. Wolf at Houston Methodist Hospital, Debakey Cardiology in Houston Texas. He invented a Procedure nick named Wolf Mini-Maze to heal people with AFIB. Success rate is about 97%. I had mine in Dec 2020 and am AFIB free.
@@janetbishop6031 I don't drink decaffeinated coffees and I hate the taste of diet drinks. In fact diet drinks are really bad for the body except for a couple of natural sweeteners. People trying to lose weight should never drink diet pop because it actually makes the body crave the sugars. That's why people fail so often when dieting. It is one of the big secrets of the diet industry.
Same here,permanent AFib with no fluttering,just skip heartbeat once in a while for at least 20 years,I added taurine 1 to 2 capsules a day and it seems to work.Also taking nattokinase,serappeptase and magnesium.
@@Jake1122-jc1ry I have had varying types of irregular heart beats for many years. Now 80, they have become progressively commonplace.

I recommend hot yoga four times per week and a diet combining nattokinase, grass-fed beef, olive oil, goat milk kefir, coconut milk, fermented vegetables, and a small amount of grass-fed organ meat. This will change your gut microbiome and reduce inflammation. This may also dramatically reduce depression and improve mood for many non-responsive to SSRIs.

It's also been shown that eating proteins and fat BEFORE carbs helps to reduce insulin spikes in type 2 diabetics. I suspect that it is also true in non-diabetics, but there is no evidence that I am aware of. By virtue of the fact that a huge % of the population has metabolic syndrome, maybe not a bad tactic - unlikely to hurt and likely to help.

But there are contra indications with Nattokinase and that would be if the patient/person is on an anti-coagulent. I read that bleeding problems could happen including brain bleed. I have yet to hear any information on this. My cardiologist hardly knew what Natto was.

My cardiologist had a patient suffer brain bleed on nattokinase. I also had negative effect….bp shot up to 150/90 and pulse in 90’s for 4 days…..nothing brought it down.
@@WS-bh2qu scary
It's the prescription anti-coagulant that makes you a "bleeder". Natto is known to remove excess fibrin from the blood, but never too much. If you take Natto and cut yourself, the blood will flow a little smoother and longer than "usual" and then clot normally. If you use prescription anti-coagulant Warfarin, your cut could make you bleed to death before you could reach the hospital. I told my doctor about Natto and he said "This is exactly what I need in my practice", but later he said " They won't let me use it- the prescription med is more controlled."
@@WS-bh2qu how much were you taking?
I also have a proclivity for skin cancers. Have had probably 30 or 40 removed PLUS extreme facial reconstruction about 5 times. Last major reconstruction on my eyes and adjacent tissure surrounding.
Can you add a link for the brand of natto powder that you use.
Oh finally! An over the counter CGM! Just ordered my Stelo!
Hi where did you purchase your CGM from?
Hi. I am 74 and just had a calcium score of 96 and they said my hearts age is 55 to 59. How reliable is a calcium score? Thanks Love your very informative video’s.
@@TheManGrant I think I'd watch my vit D3 intake since vit D increases calcium in the body...
@@TheManGrant CAC is useless measures only the hard NOT the deadly soft one only CIMT measures soft one and statins raise CAC to stabilize plaque Cummins is a fraud if he really believes this!
@@noeldeal8087Your correct but only marginally. Vitamin D is used by the body for many reasons including to help direct calcium be drawn in from our gut after we eat. The K2 is important because it directs the body as to the proper place to put the calcium like the bones so that it doesn't get put into soft tissues.
Could it be magnesium deficiencies cause or contribute to atrial fibrillation?
How about CoQ10? Is it good for heart health?
Yes
i'm using Nattokinase and Lumbrokinase, not sure if it's working yet.
Dr. Brewer, what is your calcium score? Thank you for all your great information!
It was about 100 7 years ago.
I have been eating one meal a day for 8 years, but in the evening. How can I change to eating early in the day when I am not hungry then. I watched one of your videos, where you said that meal should be early in the day. I don't think we should eat when we are not hungry. Would you advise a whole day of fasting before switching.
Is there a difference between atrial fib and SVT or are they in the same category or is there a total difference between the two SVT is supraventricular tachycardia for anybody who doesn't know what the letters stands for
I see the same people at the gym, day after day, month after month, year after year, doing ridiculously bad hard workouts. Sure they have muscle, but they also have a gut. What they just don't seem to understand is that you cannot win the war at the gym. You must win it at home in the kitchen. They can control how many reps they do, but they cannot control what they put in their mouth.
@@BlazingShackles agree same here.. Strong muscles 🙏but inside maybe clogged arteries!
Diet for strength and Clear arteries 🥰
@@AlanBoddy-fl2qp I dont know about their arteries, I just know they are overweight regardless of how often they go to the gym.
Didn’t realize you spent time at my alma mater in the Classic City. From one M.D. to another and an old RxDawg in another life. Stay healthy. Wear sunscreen. And Go Dawgs!
"Things I do to keep my arteries clean!" Very cool premise for a series. Thats PREVENTION!! Very cool, Andre
Only the second person I have seen on TH-cam talk about NATO my question is why are you not using the fresh version where you mix the beans up in the cup for roughly 100 times they say do you feel that you’re losing any amount or any benefit of the NATO by using a powdered version
Most non-Japanese don't like natto.
What's your sleeping heartrate and what's your waking relaxed heartrate?
Doc , you look so much fresh and younger 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you docs , great info , cheers
I don’t think I have ever heard you discuss Lp(a) and its role in plaque.
It is Korean on the package. Big characters are according to Google Translate..'Natto powder made from white soybean (Yeju bean)'
what form is most beneficia?
Pills or Powder or beans and where to buy? Amazon does not have the one you held up.
Amazon has it. I ordered the same package of power right now on Amazon UK.
@@MissFrog... I am in the United States and I looked at the Amazon US and didn’t see it was mostly pills and one powder that was a different brand. I would love to know where I can get the same brand as Dr Brewer was displaying.
Doc get yourself prebiotic "first aid" for metabolic help and see how is going after a few weeks. For example try prebiotics like inulin .
I recently found out I have a CAC score of 143. I’m 46, not overweight and not diabetic. My glucose has always been around 90. Since I learned this I’ve drastically altered my diet, increased exercise. I’ve lost 18 lbs and got my once high triglycerides to normal and lowered my cholesterol which was always high-ish. I’m confused as to why I have such a high cac score. I do take K2/D3 and eat natto. Doc has me set up with a low dose every other day statin. I really don’t want the statin but I understand it’s probably necessary for me.
Are you also taking magnesium. ? And how much and what form k2. Might be you’re not taking quite enough K koncentrate ?
@@exploringbellingham9223 yes to both
Sooo, if Natto creates K2 - can we just take a K2 supplement instead of fiddling with Natto? There seems to be some confusion as to taking the right Natto - what if people live in small towns that don't have asian supermarkets?
I heard Dr. Judy Mikovits speak on nattokinase supplements and she mentioned some of them are bypassing a major pathway and she only recommends Nutritional Frontiers? Nattokin Plus. Said that they formulated it more responsibly to work properly like the actual food, natto. I looked it up and it was expensive. So I am eating natto from my local health food store. Takes some getting used to.
I took Nato (6K FU) daily for six months, but unfortunately I developed gynecomastia and had to stop. I'm male 52 years old. I do well with all kinds of supplements but apparently more sensitive for side effects with Nato. I might go back to it later with lower dosage but I heard that one should be taking over 8K FU to get the best benefits for cardiovascular condition.
Nattokinase doesn’t interfere with hormones. Your Gynecomastia was caused by something else.
@@lottoretirementstrategist7569 are you on Hormone Therapy for prostate cancer?, that con cause gynecomastia.
Hi. Is this supplement safe to take with patients on dual antiplatelet regimens?
You have to love the banter. 🤣
I live in Canada so waiting on Mayo clinic to get an earlier appointment
Lack of magnesium, my late mother @83 had episodes of racing pulse(220bpm) gave 5-6ozs/day & eliminated her problem.I put it down to the magnesium content
What kind of mg? oxide, chloride, sulfate?
@@noeldeal8087 used wheat grass juice high in magnesium,
I also have racing heart 193 200 went to hospital gave me adrenalin not sure spelled right, it jumped the beat of my heart. Putting it back on it's correct rhythm. I take no meds until the hospital visits. Still no meds. Found out magnesium extremely good plus vitamin C and Hawthorn berry. There is much more going on. Over weight not able to lose. Inflation. Going to detox parasites. Blood test says nothing. Need help but it takes finances, SS doesn't go far. I also B1 Thiamine and fat soluble Benfotiamine helping. Nattokinase is great. Its hard to gather all information and understanding.
I going back to foods and herbs. Keto caused sludge gallbladder and liver became sore. Stay away from sugar use Stevia low carbs. I am 68 no shots. Well this is the first time I written anything about self always looking to help others. I love you

I can confirm this on my own example that sometimes I had an accelerated heart rate, at the moment I don't have it, but I regularly supplement with magnesium, in my study of various forms of magnesium, I think that magnesium taurate works best because it has a beneficial effect on the heart, 2x a day 500 mg in the morning and evening, washed down with only water. In addition to reducing blood pressure, magnesium taurate may have an overall cardioprotective effect-meaning that it may protect heart health. This could be due to its antioxidant properties, or its ability to reduce cell damage caused by oxidative stress.
In my coffee Nattokinase recipe (no sugar of course but few gram of glycine), i add a few drop of strong cayenne pepper sauce to facilitate absorption of this natto into the circulation. What do you think ?
Excellent video. Since Dr. Brewer brought up A-Fib, I’ve read high amounts of fish oil (which has been recommended to me by my MD - 4g daily) may cause A-Fib. Dr. Brewer, would you address this in a video, please?
Simon hill has a great video on omega 3. Taking more than 1 gram can cause afib
We did a short on this, check it out: th-cam.com/users/shortsaBSTZ3_7j9Q?si=I2wNPgmVTjTV2c_M
I watched most of the lectures by the leading scientist studying fish oil. As of a few years ago 1 tsp of Carlsons fish oil is okay.
You guys are fun together.
Do you have an Amazon link for this ?
In the Mid-Nineties I contract grew Natto Bean's, Sweet White Lupin,and Faba Bean for a Soup company interested in Oriental medicine
Could someone share the amazon link, please?
My theory is, if plaque is a result of an arterial version of "leaky gut" then it would make sense that higher LDL or Apo B levels would cause.more particles to leak through the intima layer. Using a statin to lower the number of particles could lower your heart attack risk. Going on a low carb diet would then heal the leaky intima layer and your LDL can no longer leak through, so your heart attack risk is no longer reduced by taking a statin because no matter how high your LDL is, they can't leak through to cause plaque.
Thank you for all the informative videos. Question: I bought the Nattovena but after watching many of your and other videos...is it safe to take not knowing if my plaque buildup is soft or hardened? I will be looking for a Cardiologist this week anyway.
I’m 3 years post CABGx5 taking 30 mg rosuvastatin. 70 years old.I do intermittent fasting. Been afraid of taking natto due to possible clotting.
I hope that Dr Brewer will listen to people on this channel and reduce the length of the ever so long videos. The good content can be delivered in 10min instead of 60min. Thanks for listening
Please talk about Lp(a) most of my family members including me, have it in the range of 400 nmol/L
Thanks for sharing, yes we have it on our list, we'll cover it again sooner rather than later
👋 Hi
Love your content!
I’m 61 with an 8 year old I’m trying to stay alive for till I’m at least 75 and last year I diagnosed with a 1335 calcium score 🤯 and about 25% blockages. After I started intermittent fasting and lost 45 lbs and maintaining it. Feel pretty good and am pretty active work wise as I’m a Plumber. I drink mushroom coffee every morning and take vitamin K2 with vitamin D and take a baby aspirin every night before bed. Do you think I should add the Nattokinase to my regimen. I was prescribed a statin but don’t take it! The mushroom coffee really works on inflammation as I used to not be able to sleep from the pain in my shoulder and arm from a torn rotator cuff but barely even know it’s there after drinking the mushroom coffee for about 3 weeks!!! Also drink Kachava a few times a week as a buffer! Try and eat mostly healthy. 2 eggs everyday
Please let me know your thoughts! Greatly appreciated thank you ❤
Advice- Add natto or nattokinase powder or capsules- Drop the baby asprin.
I take Lumbrokinase each night. Similar to Serapeptase.
Aspirin vs nattokinase, what’s better for platelet clotting prevention?
