Dr. HingHau Tsang's Crusade on Nutrition

• Follow the core principles for Optimal Health
• Use Alcohol in Moderation: Studies show that 1-2 drink/day, particularly of red wine, protects against heart disease.
• Stop smoking
• Eat Garlic daily: Garlic neutralizes three risk factors for heart disease: high blood fats, high blood pressure and blood clotting. If you don't like the smell and taste of garlic, you can take GarliPure daily.
• Keep your Lipoprotein(a) or Lp(a) low. Lp(a) is ten times more riskier than LDL Cholesterol in develping heart disease: Those who have had a heart attack or stroke should take at least 6 or more grams of Vitamin C and 4-6 grams of Lysine daily. This, together with vitamin A and Vitamin E was Dr. Linus Pauling's specific recommendation for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Please read Newsletter #29.
• Keep your Homocysteine low: Cardiovascular risk increases when homocysteine level is at 14-16 umol/L. Excess homocysteine damages arterial cells which leads to cholesterol plaque formation. Numerous studies over the last couple of decades have demonstrated that elevations in homocysteine lead to an increased risk of heart attack, stroke and phlebitis. Homocysteine can be safely and easily lowered in most cases with proper supplementation with folic acid, B6 and B12. Lower homocysteine by taking a daily multivitamin like My favorite multiple Vitamin / Mineral that includes folic acid, B6 & B12 and add additional B-100 complex Vitamin daily. In the November 29th, 2001 issue of the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine a double blinded control study was reported on angioplasty. The study involved 205 patients, half of the patients were treated with folic acid (1,000 micrograms), B12 (400 micrograms) and B6 (100 mg) daily while the other group received inactive placebo. The study was conducted for 6 months after each patient underwent angioplasty. In the group treated with the B vitamins, restenosis (reblockage) of the arteries occurred in just under 20% of patients compared to nearly 38% of patients who developed restenosis who took the placebo. Patients that took the vitamins also had fewer cardiac events such as heart attacks in the months following their procedure.
• Get plenty of Magnesium: Magnesium prevents heart muscle spasm, keeps blood flowing smoothly, raise HDL cholesterol, maintains normal blood pressure and keeps the heartbeat regular. Eat whole grains, legumes, bran, almonds, peanuts and broccoli.
• Keep your Fibrinogen low: Fibrinogen plays an important role in blood clotting. High levels of fibrinogen in the blood were found to be directly related to coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation, strokes, claudication & high blood pressure. Lower fibrinogen level by exercise, a glass of wine with dinner, eat deep sea fish or take daily Omega 3 Fatty Acid, GarliPure, Vitamin E, olive oil, & a vegetarian diet.
• Heart heathy natural supplements: Coenzyme q-10, (CoQ10), L-carnitine, Hawthorne Berry, GarliPure, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC). They are beneficial for arrhythmia, angina and congestive heart failure. Maintain a healthy heart with the followings:
• CoQ10 200-400 mg/day
• L-carnitine 500 -1000 mg twice a day
• Omega 3 Fatty Acid 2 - 4 capsules daily.
• Magnesium 1,000 - 1500 mg/day
• Tri-B-100 (Vitamin B complex) 2 tablets daily.
• Hawthorn 1 capsules 3 times daily.
• Antioxidants: Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), Ginkgo Biloba ( Caution: Don't take Ginkgo Biloba if you are taking Coumadin (Warfarin) or Aspirin. This combination could cause excessive bleeding in the brain or retina.), Green tea extract, Grape seed extract (For PCOs or Procyanidolic oligomers), Selenium, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, (natural not synthetic form), N-Acetyl-Cysteine (NAC) (to raise Glutathione level), & beta-carotene. These will help raise good HDL cholesterol, lower cholesterol, LDL cholesterol & triglyceride level. Therefore reduce your heart attack rate by 70%.
• Ban chemical toxins from your Life: Those frequently exposed to pesticides & chemical toxins had a higher rate of heart disease. Reduce exposure to chemical toxins such as solvents, glues, dyes, lacquers, paints, metals, vinyl chloride, herbicides and fungicides. If possible, consume organic grown whole food.
