I guess I’m back in today I want to talk

about a discussion I had with a woman

who had repeated heart attacks and she

kept going the doctor and the arteries

were clear she had no obstruction and

she didn’t know what to do so she wanted

some advice so I want to talk about what

I told her okay first of all you have to

realize that you can have a heart attack

without having the obstruction to one of

your arteries and that is called

myocardial infarction with

non-obstructive coronary arteries okay

nothing you need to know that but

there’s two things that can happen

number one is the actual heart muscle

itself goes into a cramp or the artery

goes into a spasm obstructing the blood

flow to the heart muscle itself causing

the heart attack now what I told her to

do was do some research in the area of

vitamin E deficiencies why because when

you have a deficiency of vitamin E the

need for oxygen in the muscle tissue

especially in the heart goes up

significantly okay

so you don’t have oxygen there it starts

to cramp you also can get necrosis which

is breakdown of the heart muscle fibers

with a vitamin E deficiency you have

neuromuscular degeneration so the

connection between the nerve and the

heart muscle can degenerate that can

create a big problem and another symptom

you can have a vitamin E is you can have

a myopathy which is a disease of the

heart muscle itself in certain studies

vitamin D deficiencies in the blood were

significantly higher in angina cases and

vitamin E is an antioxidant and it’s

even carried by LDL which is so called

bad cholesterol that’s carried to the

blood vessel to actually provide healing

for any lesions or oxidation that’s

happening in the artery because vitamin

E is a very powerful antioxidant it has

functions for nerve conduction and

neuromuscular control now how does

someone become deficient in vitamin E

well the biggest way is just to consume

a lot of refined carbohydrates in the

form of breads pasta cereal crackers

it’s things like that okay normally the

grain is loaded with vitamin E it’s in

the wheat germ but when you grind the

grain and you expose it to air

and you basically oxidize all the

vitamin E so when you consume those

products you create deficiencies in your

body so I don’t recommend you get your

vitamin E from grains even whole grains

I recommend you get them from the leafy

greens and sunflower seeds things like

that or go to the health a store and get

a vitamin E complex

don’t use a synthetic version okay you

get the complex because vitamin E comes

in many different parts and the exact

fraction of the vitamin E complex that

helps angina is vitamin E to that

fraction and I don’t even recommend just

taking that get the whole complex and

take that especially if you have

symptoms of angina or anything related

to heart be very very important one

additional note I want to bring up when

a woman goes through menopause she loses

the function of the ovaries okay now the

pituitary doesn’t have to work as much

because it’s not sending signals down to

the ovaries anymore so what could happen

the need for vitamin E goes down so the

pituitary is not storing vitamin E as

much and this could be one of the

reasons why women are at greater risk

for heart attack after menopause than

before menopause and what’s also

interesting is when you take vitamin E

in its complex form you can actually

improve hot flashes okay what a

coincidence so anyway there you have it

do some research and vitamin E if you

have any of these symptoms at all all
