As someone who has Heart Disease and has survived both Colon and Kidney Cancer, I have a great interest in preventative approaches to these problems. It's mainly my own fault I have these problems. Twenty years of heavy smoking stopped in '74 and thirty years of heavy drinking stopped in '92. Plus some bad cancer genes on my Mother's side.
I will post info on them that I find of interest and hope others will also. I start with the premise that we all should exercise and lose weight. And ignore it. If you do it, fine. If you don't it's even more important that you do the other things I list.
PERSONAL HEALTH: I take an 81mg aspirin and four Fish Oil capsules daily plus four 2000IU gel caps of Vitamin D. The D is the best preventative I know of for Cancer.
For heart disease, I recommend you get a heart scan and track your plaque. I have a 330 score, and take a 20mg Simvastatin daily. To stop any muscle pain from the Statin, I take two 50mg soft gels of CoQ10 daily. I take two 500mg of Slo-Niacin daily. Four capsules of L-Arginine. I take a heaping tablespoon of ground Flax seed mixed with equal portions of applesauce and prune juice. I have found Costco to be the best source for CoQ10, Fish Oil and Slo-Niacin. Buy Vitamin D from Vita-cost online in 360 IU 2000 capsule bottles. L-Arginine online from Vitamin Shoppe. |
