INSIGHT

Protocol That Lowers Coronary Calcium Score

  • Dr Mark Houston developed a protocol that reduces coronary calcium score by about 4–5% after two years.
  • The protocol combines nitric oxide promotion, glycocalyx support, omega-3s, garlic, high-dose curcumin, quercetin, and vitamin K2 MK-7 to target arterial plaque and calcification.
ANECDOTE

Decade Long Journey From Skepticism To Results

  • Houston recalls that a decade ago clinicians dismissed the idea of reversing coronary plaque.
  • After 10 years of work he now reports measurable plaque and calcium reductions and improved patient symptoms and energy.
ADVICE

Start A Specific Supplement Regimen For Plaque

  • Use targeted supplements to protect endothelium and reduce calcification proactively.
  • Specifically add a nitric oxide promoter (Vasconox), a glycocalyx promoter (arteracil), omega-3s 3–4 g/day, chiolic garlic 600 mg twice daily, curcumin ~3 g/day, quercetin 500 mg twice daily, and vitamin K2 MK-7.
