    Low androgens, not low estrogens, linked to heart disease in aging women

    One of the most pernicious myths medicine created (and has been promoting for the last century) is that menopause is a condition of estrogen "deficiency". Other, similarly pernicious myths are that estradiol is a "female" hormones while testosterone is a "male" hormone. These myths have...

    Zero-calorie sweetener (erythritol) linked to clotting, heart attacks and strokes

    A striking finding but this new study below, and it is even more striking due to the fact that it involves erythritol - one of the non-caloric sweeteners thought to be the most harmless. You see, many studies have already demonstrated negative health effects from artificial zero-calorie...

    Iron drives heart failure by fattening the heart; iron chelators may prevent/cure

    Recommending high intake of iron is one of the most common dietary recommendations of registered dieticians, as well as many doctors. The fact that lipofuscin - a highly insoluble complex of iron and PUFA peroxides - increases with age is conveniently ignored in those recommendations. The...

    If Nitric Oxide Is So Damaging, Please Explain This

    From the blog of Malcom Kendrick: A few blogs ago I wrote of a study demonstrating that men with diabetes, who used Viagra, or other PDE5 inhibitors e.g. Cialis, were far less likely to die from CVD. We know that Viagra/sildenafil has, as a primary mode of action, increasing nitric oxide...

    Hypoxic chambers may cause myocardial repair after a heart attack

    Abstract Background: Oxygen supplementation in myocardial infarction (MI) remains controversial. Inflammation is widely believed to play a central role in myocardial repair. A better understanding of these processes may lead to the design of novel strategies complementary to MI treatment...

    Not a "male" hormone - testosterone (T) beneficial for female heart health

    It always feels good to read an article on a scientific discovery and have one of the authors put on his Peat-y hat and quote Peat directly. I am joking, of course, but the study below and the statements from its lead author do sound like Peat had a significant participation in the study...

    Heart attack survivors have high stress (cortisol/adrenaline) hypersensitivity, low androgens

The study demonstrates that people who had experienced a heart attack have dramatically higher higher cortisol and adrenaline/noradrenaline...

    Vitamin E Restores Cardiac Health After Heart Attack

    A great study that gives vitamin E a much deserved exposure in mainstream media. A few years ago, vitamin E was lambasted by the press for failing to prevent prostate cancer and heart attacks. Yet, upon a more careful look, it quickly becomes evident that those trials were handicapped from the...

    PUFA (metabolites) Drive Heart Failure And Possibly Diabetes

    Morphostasis Theory Of Immunity Confirmed - Body Treats Heart Attack Like Viral Infection

In his view, the role of the immune system is not so much to "attack" foreign pathogens that threaten the organism, but is more akin to sanitation workers who clean up trash and other...

    Niacinamide Lowers BP, May Reverse CVD And Reduce Heart Attack Risk By 25%

    This is a human study, so the findings are that much more relevant even though they probably do not come as a surprise to users of this forum. The duration of the study was just 6 weeks and the dose was 500mg nicotinamide riboside (NR) twice a day (for a total of 1,000mg). There were no side...

According to official guidelines, arterial stiffness cannot be reversed once it sets in, and the only recourse...
