question: anyone have experience with aortic valve calcium deposits from a plumbing perspective, the 4 heart valves seem to be check valves if so then could/would calcium deposits make the valve less effective? then should I want to eliminate the calcium deposits what approach would be best? chelating agents? or vitamin supplements like K2 dangers of chelating agents? ........................... this is uncharted territory for me so any input would most likely fill in the charts?
What has your doctor suggested? (I'm assuming a doctor diagnosed you.) Are you taking any meds for this?
no, nothing yet Current system has gp meetings followed by tests followed by meetings followed by tests followed by gp meetings followed by different tests I tend to do my own research, then have the ability to converse with a suitable understanding about just what in hell we are discussing. I'm reasonably certain that when I discuss this with my gp,(next week) he will want to refer me to a cardiologist who will most likely want different test done-----(days---weeks---?) I get the feeling that I am 3 steps into a journey of a thousand miles whatever It should prove interesting (starting the K2 this week---don't see much of a downside) .................................. meanwhile, the proctologist couldn't get the scope beyond the bend where the transverse colon meets the descending colon, so I get to go through that ordeal again with a different proctologist-------- .......................... I just started with this new gp a few weeks ago, and he seems hell bent on finding everything that is wrong with this old body( much of which is surprising me) ............. ain't like an old truck where you might decide that the maintenance is costing too damned much and you would be better off buying a new one. ................. whither hence?
I found this information that might be helpful. But, doesn't look like there's necessarily a quicker fix for something like this. https://www.livestrong.com/article/553994-how-to-reverse-calcium-buildup-in-the-heart/ I hope you find a good solution, soon.
i am reading what i can find dont know anything about it from rough memory calcium is critical to brain/neuron function. glancing at some comments it first makes me wonder if people with higher brain functions are more at risk because they may potentially have a greater flow of calcium or better ability to process it in the blood ? one may negate the severity of the other ? my point is your question around specified calcium celation and how that may effect the brain for any length or time or over all quantity etc. chemicals that may help remove calcium from the blood and if that may interfere with memory and neural processes. are there celation techniques that process externally so no chemicals are put directly into the blood stream that may reduce calcium availability in the brain ? i am thinking from a best practice point not an alarmist point so my apologies if it sounds a little alarmist.
here is the mayo clinic description READ THIS PAGE https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/aortic-stenosis/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20353145 this sounds fairly safe and logical this person is selling something called "blood flow optimizer" a collection of herbs/teas & amino acids and some other stuff. however, if your healthy and do all that kinda stuff eat an anti inflammatory diet and do a bit of weights & cardio AND have aortic valve calcium deposits ... then you may need some type of special cocktail of things that helps remove the calcium from your blood mayo clinic on ... https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases...expert-answers/chelation-therapy/faq-20157449 Quantification of Dialytic Removal and Extracellular Calcium Mass Balance during a Weekly Cycle of Hemodialysis https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0153285

Drop your heart off at the shop, get a rental. They'll get it back to you in three days unless they find further issues.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerba_mate#Chemical_composition_and_properties Mechanism of action E-NTPDase activity Research also shows that mate preparations can alter the concentration of members of the ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase (E-NTPDase) family, resulting in an elevated level of extracellular ATP, ADP, and AMP. This was found with chronic ingestion (15 days) of an aqueous mate extract, and may lead to a novel mechanism for manipulation of vascular regenerative factors, i.e., treating heart disease.[medical citation needed]
Do they have other options you can tick off for a replacement valve other than pig heart valve? That might be problem for some Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Howdy boys. I just started a daily VK2 supplement due to some very optimistic recent research on its role in slowing progression of acinar adenocarcinoma prostate cancer. While researching this, I found this link regarding its role in heart valve stenosis: Slower Progress of Aortic Valve Calcification With Vitamin K Supplementation https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/pdf/10.1161/CIRCULATIONAHA.116.027011 VK2 also appears to stop bone loss in post menopausal women as per a Japanese study and to preserve bone density during leuprolide chem therapy for acinar adenocarcinoma. I am planning to try this as an alternative to Prolia. So is that fun enough, friend sculptor? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
me too------K2 and the question Why only on the aortic valve? remains unanswered Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
