Plaque Reversal Is Possible
- Dr. Ford Brewer argues arterial plaque can be reversed and lifestyle change is the cornerstone of that process.
- He emphasizes diet and fixing prediabetes as primary drivers of plaque improvement.
Use Omega‑3s To Stabilize Plaque
- Use EPA/DHA omega-3s (up to ~1,800 mg) to lower triglycerides, reduce clotting, and stabilize plaque caps.
- Prefer natural dietary sources like salmon and supplement when needed, watching product freshness.
Consider Natto Kinase Carefully
- Consider natto kinase for its fibrinolytic action to reduce fibrin and microthrombi around plaque.
- Monitor bleeding risk and avoid mixing with strong anticoagulants without medical supervision.
