How could plaque be broken up in Coronary Heart Diseased arteries?

What Is (CHD)?

Atherosclerotic Heart Disease, Coronary Heart Disease and also Coronary Heart Disease is the end result of the accumulation of a atheromatous plaques within the walls of the arteries that supply the muscles of the heart with oxygen and nutrients. Did you know that the most common cause for death of men and woman over 20 years of age is (CHD)? The most common cause of sudden death is coronary heart disease and it may not show ay definite signs or symptoms. Artherosclerotic heart disease consists of streaks that do not block the flow of blood. An indivdual can have (CHD), but doesn't show any sign evidence of the blood vessels changing in shape.

Over time the thickness of the plaque streaks may increase. In addition, these streaks can grow larger inside the walls of th arteries and through time will grow in the lumen of the vessel. plaque burden can be caused by a rupturing of the plaque causing an abundance of thrombus material. Did you know that an individual could develop symptoms of obstructive coronary heart disease after the plaque blocks more than 70% of the diameter of the vessel? In comparison, symptoms of (CHD) rarely show up in arterial blockages of less than 70%.

What Are The Risk Factors?

Hypertension

Smoking

Hyperglycemia (due to diabetes mellitus or otherwise)

Type A behavioral patterns

Hypercholesterolemia (LDL concentrations)

Hereditary differences in such diverse aspects as lipoprotein structure and that of their associated receptors, homocysteine processing/metabolism.

What Are The Indirect Risk Factors?

Diet low in antioxidants

Stress

Lack of exercise

Diet rich in saturated fats

What Is Oral Chelation?

Chelation is based on the observation that when a certain amino acid complex called EDTA comes into contact with certain positively charged metals and other substances such as lead, calcium, zinc, copper, magnesium, plutonium, iron, and manganese it grabs them. The EDTA actually grabs metallic cations such as calcium or lead (calcium and cholesterol form plaque within the blood vessels) and forms a compound that is then excreted from our system. As a result, oral chelation can break up plaque, which in turn can help to lower triglyceride levels and probably reduce (CHD) related problems.

As more information on coronary heart disease is discovered, I will update this article accordingly.
