This website is about reversing cardiovascular disease (CVD), AKA "heart disease."

Heart attack and stroke are leading killers, but not because science failed. On these pages you will learn that medical pioneers discovered long ago the cause of atherosclerosis (the white plaques that grow in human arteries.)

It is little known that Linus Pauling invented a nontoxic, quick-acting cure for CVD more than ten years ago. This protocol, the Pauling-therapy, can eliminate painful chest (Angina) pain in as little as 10 days. Fortunately, Pauling filmed a one hour lecture which is available on video.

The vast amount of information on these pages, both scientific and anecdotal, has been swelling like a tumor ever since Pauling made the claim that there is a cure for heart disease.

The profession of medicine could surgically excise this tumor with a study or two. Instead, the profession has adopted a "head in the sand" stance, hoping the growth is benign, afraid of what the biopsy might show.

Medical training and most of the literature fed to the medical profession is funded by pharmaceutical interests. Heart disease generates (costs the economy) more than $300 billion per year.

This probably explains why medicine still can not quote even one study that refutes Pauling.



</TD><TD width="32%">The good news is that Pauling's therapy, the cure for heart disease, does not require a doctor's permission. The two primary ingredients, vitamin C and lysine, are available in every drug store in America without prescription.

The miracle is that such a simple, completely nontoxic protocol can reverse the disease process in one month or less. The bottom line is that Cardiology should not exist. An entire profession, and its arsenal of toxic drugs, are based on misguided "science." Read on and learn how to safely avoid becoming a statistic that feeds the corrupt "medico-pharmco-media complex." - Owen Fonorow, Naturopath

Reducing the Risk for Cardiovascular Disease with Nutritional Supplements

Matthias Rath M.D.

Introduction

Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the most frequent cause of death in the industrialized world. In a series of recent papers I have contributed to an improved understanding about the pathogenesis of human CVD. It was shown that ascorbate deficiency is an important underlying factor and that all mechanisms known today leading to CVD can be triggered by ascorbate deficiency. This remarkable fact reflects the strong pressure during the evolution of man after loss of endogenous ascorbate synthesis. This pressure favored genetic and metabolic features contributing to avoidance of the fatal consequences of ascorbate deficiency and scurvy. The different mechanisms of human CVD known today therefore all compensate for impaired integrity and stability of the vascular wall caused by chronically low dietary ascorbate intake. If these mechanisms overshoot, heart attack, stroke and other forms of CVD develop. 1,2

In the first part of this paper I will marshal the evidence for the most frequent of these pathomechanisms. I will focus here on mechanisms related to lipid and lipoprotein deposition in the vascular wall and re-evaluate existing hypotheses. This re-evaluation is particularly necessary since cholesterol lowering concepts have become dominant factors in the public health debate. I will show that the most important among these overshooting defense mechanisms is the extracellular deposition of lipoprotein(a) in the vascular wall. On the basis of an improved understanding of these pathomechanisms I will present new therapeutic approaches including the reversibility of existing atherosclerotic deposits. Finally I will marshal the evidence for the particular value of nutritional supplements to achieve this therapeutic aim.

Lipoprotein(a), not LDL, is the Primary Risk Factor for CVD in Plasma

Dr. Rath’s Scientific Discovery
in Heart Disease

http://www.drrathresearch.org/images/heartds35.jpgCoronary Heart Disease Is an Early Form of Scurvy
Dr. Rath’s research reveals that coronary heart disease occurs exactly for the same reason that clinical (early) scurvy does – a deficiency of vitamin C in the cells composing the artery wall. Humans, unlike animals, develop heart disease because their bodies cannot produce vitamin C. The average diet provides enough vitamin C to prevent scurvy, but not enough to guarantee stable artery walls. As a consequence of vitamin C deficiency, millions of tiny cracks and lesions develop in the artery walls. Subsequently, cholesterol, lipoproteins and other blood risk factors enter the damaged artery walls to repair these lesions.

In the case of chronic vitamin deficiency, this repair process becomes continuous. Over the course of many years, atherosclerotic deposits develop. Deposits in the arteries of the heart eventually lead to heart attack; deposits in the arteries of the brain lead to stroke.

Dr. Rath identified and our research has proven that atherosclerosis is nature’s plaster cast for weak and cracked arterial walls that are chronically deficient in vitamin C and other essential nutrients. One of these nutrients is the amino acid lysine. Lysine is called an essential amino acid because, similar to vitamin C, it cannot be produced in the human body. Lysine, together with another amino acid, proline, is the main component of collagen. These two amino acids comprise about 25% of all amino acids in the collagen molecule. A deficiency of lysine and proline can also trigger blood vessel wall weakness and instability.

Research and clinical studies conducted by Dr. Rath confirm that the most important function of vitamin C in preventing heart attacks and strokes is its ability to increase the production of collagen, elastin, and other reinforcement molecules in the body. This groundbreaking discovery in heart disease should be taught in every medical textbook and school and explains why other cardiovascular conditions, including heart failure (http://www.drrathresearch.org/lab_research/other_cardio_heartfailure.html), irregular heartbeat (http://www.drrathresearch.org/lab_research/other_cardio_arrhythmia.html), high blood pressure (http://www.drrathresearch.org/lab_research/other_cardio_hbp.html) and circulatory problems in diabetes (http://www.drrathresearch.org/lab_research/other_cardio_diabetes.html), occur in the case of long-term vitamin deficiencies.
