Cut Your Chance of a Second Heart Attack In Half
As the epidemic of heart disease continues to kill and disable thousands upon thousands of people, it would only seem reasonable that most cardiologists would be up on what one could do to prevent a second heart attack.
The literature aimed at heart disease states who will survive a heart attack and who will die based on the people who are smart enough to take the responsibility of their health in their own hands.
Three products that every heart attack survivor should think of are these three natural products: cod liver oil, complete Vitamin E and magnesium.
Cod liver oil provides the ability to stabilize plaque by decreasing the inflammation in the plaque thereby making it less likely to rupture or clot.
This may be a bold comment but it borders on malpractice not to recommend cod liver oil, vitamin E and magnesium. In fact, from a functional medicine standpoint it would be far better to have your levels of fatty acids, magnesium and vitamin E checked so the best dosage can be prescribed.
I would ask your cardiologist if he or she is planning on measuring your fatty acid levels. That will tell you pretty quick if you have a 21st physician or a physician who is behind the times.
Meanwhile, for anyone who has already had a heart attack, I suggest a bare minimum of a daily teaspoon of Carlson’s Cod Liver Oil, Di-phasic PM (complete vitamin E supplement), 1 tablespoon of magnesium chloride to every heart patient.
So the motto is: Oil those arteries so the plaque just slips right off and can never grab on.
