More than 1.4 million people suffer from angina and 275,000 people have a heart attack annually. CHD is the biggest killer in the country.

It is simply a fact of life that you start to crumble as you get older, and this crumbling process includes the coronary arteries. The American Heart association has identified several risk factors for CHD. Some, like smoking habits, can be modified and others, like increasing age, can't.

Depends.. I've got it, and it's because I smoke (narrows the arteries & blood vessels) and I've got a boatload of plaque stickin' to the walls of my veins from crappy diet as well as a genetic pre-disposition.
Smoking also makes little cracks on the inside of the arteries that helps the plaque collect, build up & choke off the blood flow.
Too many possibilities for each individual make it impossible to be specific as to what YOUR solution is. You need to find out the extent of the damage to your arteries & where it is.. then evaluate the best solution for you, but it's probably going to be exercise & a better diet.. and stop smoking if you currently do.

and see if that helps. If it does, you can try here to get the juice.http://www.rasmussen.natureswellnesssecret.com/
Just as an aside, I took it for a rusty joint and it had me back on the field in ten days, where I had been taking motrin for 11 months and wearing a brace without effect.
