Today I want to share a protocol to potentially help undo calcification in the arteries.
What you could do for calcification in the arteries: 1. Allicin This is a phytonutrient in garlic. There is some interesting research on the association of allicin and decreased artery calcification in animals.
2. Butyrate This is a compound that the microbes in the gut make when you feed them fiber (vegetable fiber). It’s a type of fat, a small-chain fatty acid. Butyrate has been associated with a decreased risk of artery disease.
3. Lycopene This is a phytonutrient in certain vegetables. There is some interesting data showing how lycopene can decrease the thickness of the wall of the arteries and decrease the stiffness.
4. Omega-3 fatty acids You can find this in cod liver oil or fish oils. Omega-3 fatty acids may help decrease inflammation.
5. GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) This is a type of omega-6 fatty acid that is actually friendly to your arteries. A few examples would be borage oil, black currant seed oil, and evening primrose oil. GLA may help decrease inflammation, decrease the thickness of the arteries, and decrease plaque formation in the arteries.
6. Vitamin K2 (MK-7 version) You may want to consider consuming 300mcg of vitamin K2 every day. Vitamin K2 can activate a certain protein that inhibits calcium from forming in the arteries.
7. Tocotrienols This is one form of the vitamin E complex. Tocotrienols can greatly decrease inflammation in the arteries.
8. Decrease insulin resistance Do whatever you can to decrease and reverse insulin resistance. There is a direct relationship between having insulin resistance and having calcification in the arteries. A lot of these other remedies may not work unless you also fix insulin resistance. You can help fix insulin resistance by doing the healthy keto diet and intermittent fasting.
The most important combination: • Address insulin resistance • Tocotrienols • Vitamin K2 • Allicin • Omega-3 fatty acids
Secondary: • Butyrate • Lycopene • GLA

0.16 -> all right so we're going to talk about what to
do if you have calcification in your arteries
7.68 -> i've done other videos on this there's a really
good test that you can do to determine if you
13.44 -> do have calcium in your arteries in fact
it's one of the best predictors of mortality
19.44 -> so i'll put a link down below for more information
on that if you are not familiar with that test but
25.44 -> this video is on a protocol that i would recommend
to help undo the calcification in your arteries of
32.32 -> course the best thing is to prevent it but what
do you do if you actually have calcium buildup in
38.08 -> the arteries all the things that i'm going to talk
about are not meant to replace your medical care
42.56 -> just do your own research i put some links down
below for every single thing i'm going to talk
46.4 -> about the first natural compound is allicin
which happens to be the phytonutrient in garlic
54.32 -> some real interesting research on the association
of allicin and decrease artery calcification
61.84 -> in animals so if you have a pet with a
calcified coronary artery start feeding them
67.36 -> garlic immediately number two butyrate now what is
butyrate butyrate is a compound that your microbes
76.56 -> in your gut make when you feed the microbes fiber
and i'm going to recommend vegetable fiber but it
83.44 -> is actually a type of fat it's a small chain fatty
acid that's produced in your gut from microbes
91.44 -> from vegetable fiber and that too is associated
with a decreased risk of artery disease now
99.68 -> number three lycopene this is a phytonutrient
in tomatoes it's in a lot of other vegetables
107.6 -> and there's some real interesting data of showing
how lycopene can decrease the thickness of the
114.8 -> wall of your arteries and also decrease the
stiffness and this is why sometimes you'll see
121.76 -> some crazy claims that oh now you can have ketchup
and it's going to decrease your risk for heart
128.32 -> disease because ketchup has lycopene of course we
know that's not going to happen now also if you
135.04 -> add olive oil when you're cooking it can greatly
increase the amount of lycopene up to 82 percent
142.32 -> and that is because like other phytonutrients
lycopene is a fat soluble compound which means
150.24 -> it requires bile and adding more oil into the
diet can greatly enhance the absorption all right
156.88 -> number four omega-3 fatty acids the sabian fish
oils definitely cod liver oil which i recommend
163.52 -> more than fish oils i mean we know that omega-3
is good for so many things but its main action
169.76 -> in relationship to your arteries is the decrease
in inflammation but it can also increase the risk
176.4 -> of getting a clot now on the flip side the omega 6
fatty acids increase stiffness of the arteries and
185.44 -> it can increase the clotting factor and when
i'm talking about omega-6 i'm talking about
190 -> the soy oil the corn oil the canola the cotton
seed now there is one type of omega-6 that is
198.88 -> very friendly to your arteries and it doesn't
increase inflammation and that would be called gla
205.6 -> or gamma linolenic acid this would be like borage
oil black currant seed oil evening primrose oil
215.84 -> so GLA can help decrease inflammation it can help
decrease thickness in your arteries it can also
224.32 -> decrease the plaque formation in your arteries i
put some links down below very very interesting
230.24 -> all right number six vitamin k2 you probably knew
this was coming i would recommend getting the mk-7
237.52 -> version and i would consume about 300 micrograms
every single day now what does vitamin k2
246.64 -> do it activates a certain protein that inhibits
calcium from forming in the arteries so that's a
256.24 -> very very important one number seven tocotrienols
tocotrienols is one form of the vitamin e complex
265.52 -> and it's about 50 times stronger than tocopherols
and it can greatly decrease inflammation in your
273.36 -> arteries it can decrease something called
c-reactive protein which is an inflammatory
278.8 -> compound by 40 and lastly and most importantly
is doing whatever you can to decrease and reverse
290.32 -> insulin resistance there's a direct relationship
between having insulin resistance and having
297.76 -> calcification in your arteries and so a lot
of these other remedies are not going to work
304.48 -> unless you also correct insulin resistance how
if you're new to my channel i put the link down
310.4 -> below you need to do healthy keto and definitely
intermittent fasting for a period of time to
316.8 -> start making changes but it's my opinion that the
combination of addressing insulin resistance with
324.32 -> tocotrienols with k2 with allicin and omega-3
are probably the most important things you can do
333.52 -> and these other compounds are are also good but
i think using them more as a secondary approach
340.4 -> thanks so much for watching i'll see you in the
next video before you go if you have a question
345.36 -> about a product or you're new to keto and you want
to know how to begin keto or you're on keto and
352.16 -> you need a debug because it's not going as smooth
i have a keto consultant standing by to help you
358.64 -> this is just for the people in the US hopefully in
the future we'll be able to answer everyone's call
363.52 -> but i put the number down below
so you can call and get some help
