| | High Cholesterol? How to Lower Heart Attack Risk by 600% | | | | | | | | | | | Hello
My patients tell me they want to feel better and have good health. But those with high cholesterol or high blood pressure often complain mainly of WORRY. These two conditions don't usually have many symptoms, except worrying that you're walking around with a higher risk of a heart attack.
Often, your doctor's advice may be, "Take your meds and eat healthy." You'd think modern medicine would have a better answer, but they really don't.
Here's an answer you can do yourself. It's a blood marker called fibrinogen. Get this blood test done, and fix it if it's high using diet and supplements.
If you have high cholesterol, getting your fibrinogen levels normal will reduce your risk of heart attack by 600%. If you have high blood pressure, your risk goes down by 1200%!
Read the article below for a complete understanding.
Reduce Your Risk, Then Regain Your Health
Chronic health conditions such as hormone problems, heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol are often treated by conventional medicine to reduce risk and manage symptoms.
At my clinic, I work with your body to help it regain its ability to heal. This may allow chronic health problems to resolve to the point that your health is restored and you no longer consider that you have a health problem.
This may seem far-fetched or impossible. It's not!
Read this short article to understand how you could get your health BACK instead of only reducing your risk of having a health catastrophe. | | | | | | | | | | | | | An Important Overlooked Cardiovascular Lab Test Most Cardiologists Do Not Check (but Should)
Ronald Grisanti D.C., D.A.B.C.O., DACBN, MS, CFMP
For most people, cholesterol has been considered the cardiovascular lab test to monitor and assess your cardiovascular event risk. However, increased cholesterol levels were found in less than 50% of all heart attack and stroke victims.
Researchers at the World Health Organization published a study that pointed to an overlooked risk factor that accounted for the other half.
It was a blood marker known as fibrinogen.
Now, to understand just how dangerous excess levels of this blood marker can be we must first look at how it works in your bloodstream.
Fibrinogen is a protein produced by the liver and in small quantities, is an absolute vital component for survival. When you cut or scrape your skin, fibrinogen is the agent which causes the blood to thicken and eventually create a scab which clots the wound altogether. It also works in your arteries by creating small clotting agents that patch up cracks and crevices from inflammation.
The problem begins when levels of fibrinogen become elevated. When this occurs, instead of creating a small clot to repair the arterial damage, the fibrinogen begins to create an adverse event by creating a much larger clot than is needed. These oversized clots can grow to the point where they close off veins, blood vessels or major arteries entirely and cause heart attacks and stroke.
A Harvard University Study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that "Those with high fibrinogen levels had a twofold increase in myocardial infarction (heart attack) risk."
And still another study published in the prestigious Royal College of General Practitioners found that when coupled with other heart-health risk factors such as cholesterol and high blood pressure, "incidence of heart attacks was respectively six times and 12 times greater in those with high plasma fibrinogen levels than in those with low fibrinogen levels."
In other words, even if you have high cholesterol or high blood pressure you're respectively 600% and 1200% less likely to suffer a heart attack if your fibrinogen levels are in line!
Assessing your risk
Your levels of fibrinogen can be easily tested by any doctor simply by asking for what's called a fibrinogen activity test.
I like to see my patients' fibrinogen levels under 300 mg/dl. If your levels are lower, I'd continue to get your levels tested around twice a year. If higher, you should get your levels tested every three months.
How to Lower Your Fibrinogen Levels - Follow a strict Mediterranean diet
- Consume foods high in omega 3 (EPA and DHA) I recommend taking a supplement with between 2-3 grams per day. The following foods are rich in Omega 3's, such as wild salmon, mackerel and sardines and avocados. Also, eat plenty of nuts and seeds such as macadamia nuts, pecans, walnuts, and flaxseeds. And use macadamia nut oil, estate-bottled olive oil, and avocado oil.
- Take Nattokinase and Serratiopeptidase
Word of Caution.
Always check with your physician if you are on blood-thinning medication which increases your risk for bleeding episodes.
