hey guys dr. Burke here in this video

we’re going to talk about how to reverse

atherosclerosis that’s Harding of your

arteries now typically people have this

idea that this problem comes purely from

consuming too much cholesterol

okay so let’s kind of dissect really

what happens here’s an artery there’s

always a pre-existing lesion or crack in

the artery before this whole chain of

event occurs is some micro hemorrhaging

and what happens is the cholesterol

comes in there as a band-aid to heal the

the bleeding crack in your arteries so

that’s what that’s one big purpose of

cholesterol and it actually works with

calcium to form a like a little band-aid

and what causes the lesion or the crack

is usually either a low vitamin C

situation because the person is not

consuming enough vegetables okay that’s

number one because vitamin C and I’m not

talking about the synthetic vitamin C

I’m talking about real vitamin C in its

whole complex because vitamin C in the

complex has a factor it’s a type of

copper in an enzyme form called

tyrosinase which basically helps you

form collagen okay so if you don’t have

that factor you get a lot of cracks and

problems in the vascular system okay

loss of collagen everything becomes very

rigid so we need the vitamin C from the

vegetables okay the other thing that

will cause it would be high insulin

because the person consumes too much

sugar or refined carbohydrates that can

also cause inflammation and micro

hemorrhaging so we have this lesion the

body comes in forms a little plaquing

things to try to protect it with

cholesterol and by the way cholesterol

will also go way up with insulin in fact

unless you have a genetic problem with

cholesterol which is very rare

I will bet anything your cholesterol is

coming from too much insulin so if you

were to cut out all the carbs like we’re

fine carbs and sugars and alcohol that

cholesterol will come down faster than

anything would probably within a month

okay that’s just the side down so here

we got this combination of

straw and calcium plaquing and then what

happens is that it starts getting bigger

and bigger and bigger and it creates

like a clogging of an artery okay now

other things that can cause this calcium

buildup would be taking too much calcium

in the wrong form especially let’s say

you were taking calcium carbonate that

is limestone that is cement okay then

you actually added with vitamin D

calcium with vitamin D you know a

vitamin D does it actually helps you

absorb calcium in the gut by 20 times

okay

not not by 20 a percent 20x so you’re

absorbing all this calcium and the blood

is filling up with calcium that’s kind

of calls quote what’s called

hypercalcemia so the combination of this

vitamin d with calcium which so many

people are taking as a supplement

because you get tested by the doctor he

says your low vitamin D so you start

taking it you add some calcium in there

right and you think you’re doing

yourself some good but what happens is

you’re just filling up the harder for

use with calcium especially if you don’t

have the magnet magnesium because

magnesium helps to buffer the calcium as

well so what’s missing in this whole

picture well in order for you to have

vitamin D work correctly in calcium you

need another vitamin called vitamin k2

you’ve never heard about this you need

to do some research I’ve put some links

below so you can watch some more data on

k2 but vitamin k2 probably in the next

few years will be very very mainstream

because what it does it basically

removes calcium from the soft tissues of

the body it helps to clean up the

calcification on the arteries it

basically prevents your arteries turning

into bone and stone

it makes your arteries more elastic it’s

really good for blood pressure so k2

well guess where you get vitamin k2 it’s

in it’s a fat Seibel vitamin so it’s in

all the fats that the doctor has been

telling you to avoid it’s in cheese it’s

an egg yolk

st. grass-fed fatty meats it’s also in a

soy product called NATO that’s a Japan

dish but mainly it’s in the fats so here

the person is consuming a low-fat diet

their arteries are clogged they put them

on coumadin and by the way blocks

vitamin k1 so now you can’t eat the

vegetables where you gonna get your

vitamin C from you take it from a pill

it’s usually going to be synthetic so

you’re going to take the synthetic

vitamin C which will actually aggravate

everything so it really is is messed up

what we need to do is we need to if

you’re uncommitted you need to take the

right amount of vegetables okay I have a

video on that if you want to see that

that our low vitamin K get the vitamin C

heal this original thing start taking

vitamin k2 you can take d3 and you can

probably even take some calcium but

probably not a good idea unless you have

cramps in your calves that’s a good

indication you need calcium but most

people can get it from the food because

you’re eating these foods right here

like cheese that’s going to give you

enough calcium I think the only time

that I recommend a calcium supplement is

typically if the person has cramps in

the calves or they’ve osteoporosis or

osteopenia okay I’d like to get that one

from the food but vitamin D is important

as well but we need to vitamin k2 okay

so if you were to do these things reduce

the insulin take the vegetables advocate

to avoid the calcium you’ll be in pretty

good shape and you can create some nice

change over time and by the way the

people that are taking any assets well

they’re getting the calcium carbonate

you’ll be better off June I’m gonna

cement down the street you know alright

so I threw a lot at you hope this helped
