all right so we’re going to talk about what to  do if you have calcification in your arteries  

i’ve done other videos on this there’s a really  good test that you can do to determine if you  

do have calcium in your arteries in fact  it’s one of the best predictors of mortality  

so i’ll put a link down below for more information  on that if you are not familiar with that test but  

this video is on a protocol that i would recommend  to help undo the calcification in your arteries of  

course the best thing is to prevent it but what  do you do if you actually have calcium buildup in  

the arteries all the things that i’m going to talk  about are not meant to replace your medical care  

just do your own research i put some links down  below for every single thing i’m going to talk  

about the first natural compound is allicin  which happens to be the phytonutrient in garlic  

some real interesting research on the association  of allicin and decrease artery calcification  

in animals so if you have a pet with a  calcified coronary artery start feeding them  

garlic immediately number two butyrate now what is  butyrate butyrate is a compound that your microbes  

in your gut make when you feed the microbes fiber  and i’m going to recommend vegetable fiber but it  

is actually a type of fat it’s a small chain fatty  acid that’s produced in your gut from microbes  

from vegetable fiber and that too is associated  with a decreased risk of artery disease now  

number three lycopene this is a phytonutrient  in tomatoes it’s in a lot of other vegetables  

and there’s some real interesting data of showing  how lycopene can decrease the thickness of the  

wall of your arteries and also decrease the  stiffness and this is why sometimes you’ll see  

some crazy claims that oh now you can have ketchup  and it’s going to decrease your risk for heart  

disease because ketchup has lycopene of course we  know that’s not going to happen now also if you  

add olive oil when you’re cooking it can greatly  increase the amount of lycopene up to 82 percent  

and that is because like other phytonutrients  lycopene is a fat soluble compound which means  

it requires bile and adding more oil into the  diet can greatly enhance the absorption all right  

number four omega-3 fatty acids the sabian fish  oils definitely cod liver oil which i recommend  

more than fish oils i mean we know that omega-3  is good for so many things but its main action  

in relationship to your arteries is the decrease  in inflammation but it can also increase the risk  

of getting a clot now on the flip side the omega 6  fatty acids increase stiffness of the arteries and  

it can increase the clotting factor and when  i’m talking about omega-6 i’m talking about  

the soy oil the corn oil the canola the cotton  seed now there is one type of omega-6 that is  

very friendly to your arteries and it doesn’t  increase inflammation and that would be called gla  

or gamma linolenic acid this would be like borage  oil black currant seed oil evening primrose oil  

so GLA can help decrease inflammation it can help  decrease thickness in your arteries it can also  

decrease the plaque formation in your arteries i  put some links down below very very interesting  

all right number six vitamin k2 you probably knew  this was coming i would recommend getting the mk-7  

version and i would consume about 300 micrograms  every single day now what does vitamin k2  

do it activates a certain protein that inhibits  calcium from forming in the arteries so that’s a  

very very important one number seven tocotrienols  tocotrienols is one form of the vitamin e complex  

and it’s about 50 times stronger than tocopherols  and it can greatly decrease inflammation in your  

arteries it can decrease something called  c-reactive protein which is an inflammatory  

compound by 40 and lastly and most importantly  is doing whatever you can to decrease and reverse  

insulin resistance there’s a direct relationship  between having insulin resistance and having  

calcification in your arteries and so a lot  of these other remedies are not going to work  

unless you also correct insulin resistance how  if you’re new to my channel i put the link down  

below you need to do healthy keto and definitely  intermittent fasting for a period of time to  

start making changes but it’s my opinion that the  combination of addressing insulin resistance with  

tocotrienols with k2 with allicin and omega-3  are probably the most important things you can do  

and these other compounds are are also good but  i think using them more as a secondary approach  

thanks so much for watching i’ll see you in the  next video before you go if you have a question  

about a product or you’re new to keto and you want  to know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and  

you need a debug because it’s not going as smooth  i have a keto consultant standing by to help you  

this is just for the people in the US hopefully in  the future we’ll be able to answer everyone’s call  

but i put the number down below  so you can call and get some help
