The immediate cause of death is a ‘sudden’ heart attack but this is the end-point of the slow progression of coronary heart disease (CHD) or coronary artery disease (CAD) where, over decades, the artery walls become blocked so stopping or severely restricting the flow of blood to the heart. http://www.wddty.com/diseases-of-the-heart.html http://www.wddty.com/diseases-of-the-heart.html Mon, 4 Jun 2007 10:06:00 GMT Health You can and you will beat heart problems.

Although the process is technically sophisticated, the end result is crude. A thin wire (catheter) is fed into the artery, and directed to the area of potential blockage. Widening is achieved by inflating a small balloon at the end of the catheter, thus forcing the artery to stretch open. Other techniques use tiny lasers, drills or rotating blades to scour out the artery. http://www.wddty.com/the-dynocure-method.html http://www.wddty.com/the-dynocure-method.html Wed, 1 Feb 2006 12:00:00 GMT Health For more than 50 years, medicine has claimed that a diet high in cholesterol and fat is responsible for coronary artery disease. However, growing evidence shows that heart disease may simply be a marked case of scurvy. Repairing blood vessels could be simply a matter of taking high doses of vitamin C. http://www.wddty.com/atherosclerosis-scurvy-in-disguise.html http://www.wddty.com/atherosclerosis-scurvy-in-disguise.html Wed, 1 Feb 2006 12:00:00 GMT Health PREVENTION * Take large doses of vitamin C. Linus Pauling believed what he called ‘chronic scurvy’ can be prevented with 3 g/day of vitamin C. Subsequent research has shown that dosage is important. Tests demonstrate that 3 g/day of vitamin C as a one-off dose reaches peak levels in the bloodstream four hours later, then gradually falls to original (baseline) levels over the next 20 hours. So, dividing the dose into three lots taken throughout the day may be valuable, as 1 g peaks only just below the four hours that 3 g do. Tests also demonstrate that 200 mg/day barely raises blood vitamin-C levels at all (Ann Intern Med, 2004; 140: 533-7). http://www.wddty.com/heart-health-naturally.html http://www.wddty.com/heart-health-naturally.html Wed, 1 Feb 2006 12:00:00 GMT Health Vitamin C appears to be one of the least toxic substances known to man. Four studies involving over 3000 people have tested the effect of 10 g/day and found no ill-effects save loose bowels. However, the leading orthomolecular physician and pioneer in vitamin-C therapy, Dr Robert Cathcart, believes loose bowels are a good indicator of general health, as the sicker the patient, the less the side-effect. http://www.wddty.com/how-safe-is-high-dose-vitamin-c.html http://www.wddty.com/how-safe-is-high-dose-vitamin-c.html Wed, 1 Feb 2006 12:00:00 GMT Health Atherosclerosis has another sting in its tail. One of the effects of a restricted blood supply to the heart is to cause it to become unstable and go into arrhythmia - heart flutters or atrial fibrillation (AF). It may sound benign, but AF is, in fact, a major cause of death in people with heart disease, and more than one in every 100 of us suffers from it (Swiss Med Wkly, 2004; 134: 235-47). http://www.wddty.com/electroshock-therapy_1.html http://www.wddty.com/electroshock-therapy_1.html Wed, 1 Feb 2006 12:00:00 GMT Health The obvious way to reduce the mercury in your body is to avoid amalgam fillings, or remove the fillings already in your mouth.
