Linus Pauling was the only person to ever be awarded the Nobel prize twice for his work with Vitamin C.
Cholesterol used as plaque; A weak spot in the artery is likely a symptom of underlying scurvy; a severe lack of Vitamin C.This lack causes the blood vessels to become very thin ,weak and porous.The constant pulsing of the heart is much greater here and stresses the wall of the blood vessel.This creates minute cracks and the blood seeps out. The bodys' defenses have to stop this leakage and uses Cholesterol [plaque] as the sealant. Over time this is repeated and as the cholesterol gets stiff and brittle thereby cracking also,so more plaster is used until the artery is plugged. The blood vessels are like the chain which is only as strong as its' weakest link, and the weakest link is near the heart in the majority of cases. The lack of Vit. C in the old days of sailing vessels was the cause of scurvy amongst sailors. This was also known as the bleeding death as blood leaked out into the outer parts of the body. It was quite common for more than half of the crew to perish on long journeys. Isn't it significant that mainly the vessels near the heart are the ones to get clogged? Picture an old garden hose under pressure and stepping on it up to and over 72 times a minute, It would not last long without cracking. My advice is to take mega doses of Vit. C as you may be assured this is just the tip of the ice-berg. In this case I would advise to go slowly at first, using small doses of Vit. C. building up to mega doses." The British Empire came into being because the Navy ships would load up with Limes from Portugal when sailing out. The sailors were made to eat a lime each day. This kept them healthier than their enemies ,thus taking control of the seas. This is how their nick-name came into being; "Limies" Nattokinase can be used to eliminate plaque from arteries. It is important to start out with small doses gradually increasing over time. Serrapeptase has also been used to do the same, but it must be done as above . the right Vitamin E is good as it makes the blood sliprier. The right Vit. E is designated as "D-Alphas-etc, not DL-alphas as the L signifies it as synthetic. ?Harold ?
