And what about people who already have plaques and CHD? Do you think that one day they can stop talking statins and blood thinners after eliminating the root cause? Please cover this topic in an other video. Thanks
I have been watching you, and those like you, for years and I have listened and took heed. And so I am the individual in the household who won't eat the C**P and so I am the "health nut" disrupting everything. At 75 y/o oddly enough, I am also the healthiest. No diabetes, not obese, no chronic disease, no ache or pain. (OK one knuckle on my right hand, very minor) I won't take a statin (any more) so I can stand up w/o difficulty. (I can do deep knee bends and pushups.) Go figure. Thank you Dr.
You are an amazing person Dr Cywes. You're an awesome source of inspiration. I love your passionate and sincere delivery. I am hoping to get a consultation with your team soon and get a helping hand to guide my struggles .
So what you're saying is Linus Pauling was right. Atherosclerosis IS caused by a lack of vitamin C. The lack of vitamin C causes subclinical scurvy and makes thousands of tiny micro thrombosi in the endothelium and the Lp (a) cholestrol swings by to patch it up and ultimately clogs the arteries. I can preach diet and healthy lifestyle as a clinician all day, but the game changer for me was when I started prescribing 5,000 to 10,000 mg of vitamin C qd to build that collagen in the endothelium. The amino acids lysine and Proline are also required to make good collagen. And then the other absolutely critical therapy is breathing molecular hydrogen gas every day for an hour with a good home machine to attenuate hydroxyl radicals and other stressors of pro oxidation such as excess glucose, smoking, sun, booze ect etc. With this therapy I can take somebody about to go on to the table and have them turned around in 6 to 8 months. With good lifestyle changes and this therapy they can have the heart of a 25 year old with a 10-year warranty after a year or two. A giant bottle of vitamin C from Costco.(take 1000 mg every hour up to 10) and a clinical grade hydrogen machine from Australia. Italy, Japan and Korea are ok.. just not China or sadly the US.
After extensive research I decided to switch to the carnivore lifestyle three months ago. Wow the inflammation in my body is almost gone. My bowel is behaving itself no diarrhoea or dyspepsia and my painful shoulders (6years) has gone. I bought a new knife (sharp) to cut my steaks and foolishly showed my son how sharp it was and sliced into my finger. The healing was incredible it took only 3 days to primary heal and a month later you cannot even see where I did it the skin healed so well. I am loving this way of eating. My only wish now is that my arthritic knee catches up.
I have been trying to get my cardiologist to check my cardiovascular inflammatory biomarkers for YEARS. These cardiologists (AKA heart "experts") could "give a rat's a$$" about the PREVENTION of atherosclerosis!
The cravings will go away when filling up on BBE. We snacked on bacon...but even the snacking "need" goes away. When you see a donut or cookie...repeat POISON! Get all temptations put of the house.
I will be calling your office tomorrow. Just had an argument today with my doctors office, trying to put me on statins. But no info about any of my bloodwork at all. I refused all meds 😂
Statins, I believe, have been promoted for the wrong reason. LDL is not the problem but oxidative stress and inflammation are. Statins have been shown to help with these in some studies. I think this is where they can be helpful in low doses (5-10mg rosuvastatin for example). But I haven't seen studies that say statins calcify plaque. Statins may be helpful in the short-term until you've gotten the inflammation and oxidative stress under control.
More like promote calcified arteries. That’s not a good thing. Avoid the glucose/insulin damage and cholesterol does what it’s supposed to. We weren’t meant to eat sugar and plants. That’s why we’re all sick (we as in you humans. Not me). Statins didn’t help me. From age 30 I’ve had my cholesterol controlled. Still have 85th percentile plaque (37 plaque score - not a biggie except for being at age 50 instead of 60-70). Always was a sugar addict. No longer. Keto and then carnivore aiming for deep ketosis. See what my next CAC score says.
But what about alcohol? Beer is a grain and the sugars to form alcohol. Not only stuffs the liver, but does it damage arteries too? No one mentions alcohol.
Well, @micknmaggie, i will. You are right in your comments. Alcohol is deterious to your body. I can attest to it. My beer consumption had me feeling like i had Covid. Couldn't/didn't make the connection until i realised my inhalers (asthma) were not working, so i figured there has to be somme kind of connection. Fast forward to 18 September 24 (last beer), and i will tell you now that beer/alcohol affects every single thing in your body, from your hair to your toenails. So in 13 days with beer in the rear view mirror and cleaning up my diet (gone carnivore). So, the long skinny answer to your question, does alcohol affect your arteries and arterial system of your body? I don't gamble, but i would you "YES." I'm ex military, and i love a cold brew or two as any man or woman, but at the end of the day, you have to make a choice or decision. Stay 💪
Vodka is a better choice if you gotta. Very clean and filtered and no carbs. Still kills your brain so best avoided. Alcohol must be burned off so any glucose in your bloodstream will have to wait and do damage before being processed. Glycation is promoted - empty calories that just make you old and weak. Try carnivore and you won’t need the booze anymore - will be happy without the soybean oil (in everything) ruining you.
Good info. However, how can you get rid of plaque once it has formed. I don't think there is a way to clear a scar on your arm, but is there a way to clear plaque once it has formed in your arteries?
@@marianmcoy7816Hi Marian. I believe IV chelation therapy may possibly be able to reduce or eliminate soft plaque but don't think it will have that effect on plaque that has already calcified. Years ago, I knew of a highly respected integrative cardiologist who utilized chelation therapy for soft plaque removal. It is possible but not easy to regress calcified plaques, though. Watch videos with Dr Ford Brewer on TH-cam who successfully reversed his own plaques utilizing diet, a very low dose statin 3 days per week and other lifestyle changes. When in his 50s, Dr Brewer was informed he had the arteries of a 75 year old. He plunged into the scientific literature, went for specialized genetic testing, overhauled his diet and began taking a very low dose statin 3 days per week. He used to be adamantly against statin use prior to this. After just 18 months and more screenings, he was told he now has the arteries of a 57 year old. His plaques had not completely disappeared but he had significant regression.
It has been demonstrated and reported in the scientific literature that breathing molecular hydrogen gas produces mesenchymal stem cells. These stem cells will slowly take away scars on the skin. Google molecular hydrogen and stem cells and you will see the studies from PubMed and the NIH. You can go over to Panama City and spend $40,000 for a stem cell treatment like Mel Gibson did for his dying father or you can breathe the hydrogen gas and get a trickle charge of mesenchymal stem cells. Mesenchymal stem cells are takilen from the umbilical cord and their day 0 or day one stem cells, they are not embryonic stem cells that do not work as well. Google Mel Gibson stem cells and you will see the interview with him and the doctors from the US who set up a clinic in Panama City.
GREAT info and explanation! My mom is 85 and on Warfarin. She's tired of getting Protime done and I just told her today that it's never too late to make changes, but she still eats white bread, ice cream, sugary frozen yogurts, fruit juice, and candy. At least I got her off statins, but she's just not going to make the changes she needs. I made the changes for me- carnivore for 2.5 years now. Getting my first CIMT in a couple weeks... TBC...
I'm nearly 67 and have been low carb for 3 years and this year increased my meat intake. I was diagnosed with diabetes and it was the fear of going blind and/or kidney damage that was my motivator to try low carb. If I had been 85 I might not have felt the "need" to change.
@Dr.Cywes: OK, we know how much sense it makes to reduce diet-caused inflammation to reduce the formation of plaque. But what can we do to reverse the plaque that’s already there and open up our arteries? I had a heart attack 7 weeks ago, and I am EXTREMELY interested in the answer to that question (and I have reduced carbs to under 50/day, and take them with fats and protein to ameliorate the insulin spikes). TIA for your answer!
That’s a decent start. 20 or less total carbs. Get off the plants - research carnivore with Ken Berry and Dr. Chaffee. Plant toxins and rotting fiber waste isn’t our food (fiber is why we have more colon cancer than ever). Beef butter and eggs. No vegetable oils especially soybean oil which means almost no boxed food. Everything doctors tell you is bunk. Cholesterol isn’t a problem once you get your glucose and insulin under control. Another channel is Dr. Bosworth. She’s great for reversing and healing using deep ketosis and fasting. You must get your body into deep ketosis (almost no carbs) to make your body eat the garbage and heal itself.
Please listen to me for a minute.... You are going to have to be proactive and take charge of your health from here on out. Do your research. I think the best thing you can do at this point is reduce arterial inflammation and oxidative stress. I have 3 pieces of advice for you. 1. Set up a visit with Dr. Cywes (may take awhile. It took me 6 months but worth it). 2. Research the "Bale/Doneen Method". and 3. Read the following books.... "How to Beat the Heart Attack Gene" and "Healthy Heart, Healthy Brain" by authors Dr. Bradley Bale and Amy Doneen. Also, read "Unholy Trinity" by Daniel Trevor. All 3 of these books are on Audible as audio books. They are very informative and will give you great info to carry into your future doctors' appointments whether that be with Dr. Cywes or whoever. You got this!
So, the nicotine is responsible for endothelial damage (by which mechanisms, btw?)... How about high blood pressure? How about turbulent blood flow on biforcations due to high BP? Is there nicotine in veins? Yes. Are there plaques in veins? No. Pretty much the most useless video, almost misleading. Don't start with "yes, but nicotine causes high BP!". By which mechanism? Inhibiting NO production? NO was discovered much later, after condemnation of nicotine.

people in usa are so crazy about smoking, very litgtle people smoking there, and they are soooooo seak and unhealthy.... i dont think smoking is healthy, but in moderation is definitely not so bad as people think. And heart desease is began 100 years ago, people were smoking and alcohol drinking till then??? Thats interesting.
Hello, Could you tell me your opinion on carnivore and neurofibromatosis type 1, please? Many say it is bad, but I do not get why are carbs good for NF1 diagnosis, they say "NF1 patients are mutants who run on carbs only". THANK YOU and best of luck to all of your patients :)
Thank you for educating us. The information you provide is very valuable. Can you address the genetic disposition for plaque and would statins be necessary to control that condition or are dietary options sufficient for that purpose. I am 78 and have reduced carb intake significantly for the last 5 months or so, basically following a keto diet. My A1c dropped for 7.3 to 6.1 which was why I went on keto in the first place. I want to stop the statins but doctor advised I shouldn't due to genetic disposition. Thank you.

I've been Keto for 5 years now as measured by my Keto Mojo but over the last 2 years my CT CORONARY CALCIUM SCORING went from 120 to 219. I never cheat on a whim with Keto, though a few times a year I eat cake on family birthdays, and pie and stuffing with thanksgiving dinner. I always get right back into ketosis the next day. Why is my CT CORONARY CALCIUM SCORING going up? What can I do about it? BTW, I still take Olmesartan to control my High Blood Pressure. Oh, and I am 66 years old, and a lean mass hyper responder at 6 feet tall and 175 pounds.
it's very important to maintain an active lifestyle walk 5 miles every day, gym 1-1.5hrs and cycle/swim 30-60min a day. You can eat very clean but if you are sedentary it will do no good. At least being active for 6-7 hours a day without sitting or resting too much is key to beat a sedentary lifestyle. Sedentary life style contributes to plaque as well not just food. Hope that helps
Take zetia/ezatimibe will take the fat getting absorbed through your intestines into your bowels Better and safer than a statin You could also be just healing by your cac score going up are you creating new plaques or are they the original from the 1st and 2nd cac score all important to know
@@robertspinks835 Yes, this idea that I am only now converting 5 year old soft plaques into calcified plaques did occur to me. If true, then I should see the progression of calcified plaques halt at some point, Perhaps it already has.. I can get another test next year. I do maintain an active life style and I think I'm fitter than I have been in decades. My cardiologist did not have any suggestion except for taking a statin, but I think that's a bad idea. One thing for sure, getting old is not for the weak.
@@leeaquirre2889 I don't swim or bike but I average more than 10,000 steps a day and I run a couple times a week. So I'm pretty active. Thanks for the suggestion.
This was most useful video you have ever done! Thank you for this explanation.

Dealing with that now. There are ways to reverse plaque, unfortunately, some can't do the HITT routines or sprint uphill.

Excellent
Which can only mean you’re carnivore…once you know what our real food is you quit eating waste (ie rotting fiber).
So you were wise enough not to take the shot.

@@leeaquirre2889 I don't swim or bike but I average more than 10,000 steps a day and I run a couple times a week. So I'm pretty active. Thanks for the suggestion.
Thank you sir
Way back people didn't live until 80 or 90 years old. They never got to a point where they had these problems.
Yes they did.
What brought the average lifespan down was the high number of children dying before 5 years old.
Thanks Dr C.
Doc 👍
How do we get our system to not be inflamed? Very interested.

Don't eat inflammatory foods, i.e., sugar, white processed foods like rice and white flour, grains, seed oils, and other highly processed foods.
