change the out come of a would be heart attack or stroke,and how long if possible would it take your body to clear the blockage , with your help and change of life style, I some how feel that to many people just wait and do nothing thinking a open heart repair will make them as good as new, but from what i have seen it only adds more health problems due to the amout of drugs a person must take every day after getting the open heart repair,I know we most all realize the heart problems come from what we eat and being to lazy and not working off the bad stuff, so why can't a person change their own heart health in a short amount of time just by changing their thinking and eating / plus working a little harder???

You have to have medical treatment, and THEN you need to change your eating habits. My father-in-law just died in March from a massive heart attack, because even after having several surgeries, and having a pacemaker put in he still kept eating the way he did before. Protect your health at all costs. Think before you put that chip in your mouth about how it will affect your heart!

I had a bypass last year, and I have very severe blockages.
A concientious low fat (10%-20% ?) and healthy diet, lots of exercise, and stress reduction has been documented to slowly reverse partial blockages by an average of about 5% a year, but only in 2/3 of patients. Look up information on the Dean Ornish diet.
I get angina easily if I have a meal with even a small amount of fat. twelve french fries tree weeks ago, and I had pains off and on for a week, when I usuallly have none.
Regular exercise will help develop collateral vessels in your heart, giving an internal re-pipe. But you may still need a bypass, as I did, and I have full collateralization of my entire heart.

There are good ayurvedic products which removes the blockages without any surgery and also works as prophylactic for coronary artery disease. These capsules are capable of avoiding bypass, angiopalsty, stent or chelation therapies. Unfortunately, when you come to know that there is some thing wrong with your heart, you have already crossed the danger mark and you will not have time. You are forced to go for surgical treatment. Look for products like Rudved/Cardoved/Suved/Hridayarnav Ras in google search engine.

Hi I'm 45 years young. I had my 1st Heart attack at age 36. I have had 3 total Heart attacks the last one about 4 yrs ago. I stopped taking all meds 3 1/2 yrs ago. I was on 8 different meds and felt like poo. I was in great physical shape allways on the run.when I had my 1st, I smoked allot and drank lots of coffee. I don't smoke, drink 2 cups of caffeine coffee a day. Use EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and canola oil. I have 3 stints and have not had to have Open Heart. So I suggest you get fixed and then change your life. Good luck and God bless.

I agree with racer 51. Once the blockage is there, no amount of exercise, diet or lifestyle changes will make it go away. Making these changes may only keep it from getting worse. Open heart surgery is not the quick fix for lazy people....

once the blockage is there, diet and exercises won't help. it adheres itself to the arterial walls. if you have one, you'd better have it taken care of by a doc.
