hey guys so today we’re gonna talk about

stents and some of the problems the

cascade effect problems that occur when

you get a stent originally they used

angioplasty which is a procedure where

they’re putting a balloon to kind of

mash the plaque and create more space

than your arteries the problem is you

get a condition called restenosis which

is regrowing some of the tissue back so

that’s not good so then they developed

something called a stent which is a

metal mesh that goes in the arteries and

holds up the arteries to create more

space well the problem is it still

created this this regrowing of tissue

but not as much but still it was too

high so then they added some drugs to

the stent called a drug-eluting stent

and that helped a little bit but it gave

another side effect which is thrombosis

which is clotting and then they had to

come up with another solution to fix

that which is dual antiplatelet therapy

okay the problem is once you get off

this we still have complications of the

heart more problems so some doctors are

just deciding to leave people on this

therapy indefinitely okay the problem

with that is that your risk for bleeding

increases so let’s say for example you

have to get a surgery well that’s a

problem because you’re not gonna be able

to clot if they cut you open you can

bleed to death or let’s say you get in a

car accident and you have this internal

bleeding

you basically bleed to death so it puts

you at risk okay so I see that there’s a

need for stents in certain situations

but they are overused I’m gonna put some

links down below just to if you’re

considering getting a stent you just

need to know all all the facts on this

so here’s the big problem this is not

just a plumbing problem okay this is not

just you eating too much cholesterol

plugging up your arteries there always

is an originating lesion or damaged

artery that starts the cascade effect in

the first place where there’s

inflammation this is the originator

right here

you have this inflamed artery okay

then the body comes in to heal it with

cholesterol and calcium and protein as

it’s bandaid in the presence of a

nutrient deficiency this is accelerated

so if you’re low in vitamin E vitamin C

certain B vitamins and other nutrients

this process is accelerated because

these nutrients actually protect against

oxidation or damage from inflammation

and what’s really behind the

inflammation in most cases is high

levels of insulin because the person is

consuming too many carbohydrates not too

much fat but too much sugar and other

things that fall into the carbohydrate

family the other problem is low vitamin

k2 if you don’t know about k2 I’m gonna

put a link down below vitamin k2 is an

amazing nutrient that helps keep the

calcium out of the arteries the problem

is the source of vitamin k2 is from

fatty foods so if you’re getting the

recommendations to lower your fat

content and then that depletes the

vitamin k2 not to mention being put on a

statin for high cholesterol has a side

effect of increasing instant resistance

and increasing more insulin okay that’s

going to worsen the situation so here we

are trying to solve a problem but it

gives you another problem not to mention

you may be put on coumadin which is a

medication to thin the blood and it

blocks vitamin k1 so this means you

can’t consume leafy greens the very food

that would give you a lot of these

nutrients so basically you’re stuck

between a rock and a hard place because

it’s hard to get these nutrients in a

natural good form a whole food form it’s

hard to keep insulin down because you’re

not getting the correct diet so you

never end up treating the root problem

you’re stuck in this patch-up mode

unfortunately so if you’re confused if I

just confused you I highly recommend

doing some research or own research on

the relationship between arteries and

insulin okay that would be a good place

to start and inflammation of the

arteries and how insulin can affect that

also vitamin k2 and I also recommend you

get on a healthy ketogenic diet within a

minute fasting that can actually be a

game-changer for you so you have a

chance of minimizing the real cause of

this problem so despite whether you have

a stent or not what we want to do is we

want to prevent another problem all

right so thanks for watching and I hope

I at least increase your awareness on

some other areas that you might want to

dive into doing your own research

All Right see you later hey guys I’m not

sure if you have my app yet dr. Berg app

it’s totally free you should download it

okay this is what it looks like you

click it it gives you all sorts of great

resources I have all my youtube videos

on this app okay and it’s regularly

uploading the most recent ones all the

YouTube videos are also converted to

audio versions okay so you can use it

when you’re walking exercising driving

your car I have a mini course on there

I’ll be putting additional courses I

have a lot of recipes on there and this

is new and also PBF resources so there’s

various downloads PDFs that you can get

as well and if you wouldn’t mind after

you download it check it out give me

your unbiased review and tell me how you

like it I want to know
