    I am living proof (thank God) of the risks associated with heart cath Dr Ovadia spoke of. Back in 2018, after being diagnosed with congestive heart failure, my cardiaologist ordered a cath. A day and a half after the cath, I suffered a stroke. Being in a rural area, I was taken to Denver on an air ambulance. Thanks to the care there, I walked out of that hospital 4 days later with little lingering effects. Everything cleared up in a week. The risks are real.

    I have heard others indicate (Dr. Ford Brewer, for one) that calcium is the indication of a stable plaque, that the most dangerous plaques are the soft ones that haven't calcified yet, and that because of this a CAC score can increase due to plaque stabilization. Would love to hear these doctors address that, specifically.

      @trail.blazer Před měsícem +6

      It is well established that what you have described is correct. Most people that have calcification will still have some soft plaques. It is common for the CAC score to subsequently increase after treatment begins, which is generally a good thing. Some people have then been able to reduce their CAC scores and attempting that should be after calcification has increased together with that stabilisation. Treatment can include diet, lifestyle, supplements and/or medications.

    I'm 6 month carnivore. I was in an ICU ward because of status epelepticus. It took about 3 days or more for a neurologist to wake me up. During that time I had a heart attack. My body was over using energy while unconscious and my body was temporarily paralyzed probably because of how the over use of energy being used. I was told I'm lucky to be alive and that while still unconscious at the start the neurologist said if I will ever get to wake up my brain would be in a state of a vegetable. Would it definitely be the status epelepticus that caused the heart attack not the LDL? I was prescribed a statin but refused to take it. Because my triglycerides are low I'm happy with the result but they want me on statins. They can throw their statins in the rubbish bin!

    My CAC was 879 last September. I was almost 4 years carnivore at that time. I was 61 years old. I did not get my a1c until after being carnivore for over a year and it was less than 5. No idea how bad it was before I went carnivore....Doc never mentioned it. One thing that frustrates me is that all the carnivore influencers seem to say...my CAC is zero...and they they never discuss those of us who have a high CAC score.

    I have a calcium score of 175 & was put on a statin. I am going back a year later after reducing carbs & diet sugars for another CAC score test to look for improvement. Informative & insightful, I leant a lot! Low carb diet bring down insulin resistance & hence inflamation then reduce the plaque in arterial walls & hence calcification reduction.

      Don't be surprised if your CAC score actually increases. You were doing damage for a very long time before you started making healthy changes. So there may be a lot of healing to be done in the was of plaque being calcified.
      My CAC was 34 after one year of keto. I had high expectations when I did a followup CAC 4 years later but my score was 144.

    My belief was that if you put two cac scans side by side a year or 2 apart the main aim is to not have any new plaques formed, in most instances the plaques will increase no matter how good your diet is.
    Ford brewer sees plaque increasing and many others who look at all these scans regularly.
    Arthur Agaston also says not creating new plaques in different areas is the goal.

Your seeming attempts to add and/or clarifying for the sake of your audience only create confusion and frustration. It’s to the point where even when you have an amazing guest like Dr. Ovadia on, I hesitate to watch because it’s going to because I know it’s going to be nearly impossible to enjoy. You are clearly very knowledgeable and you do ask pertinent questions, however, out of respect for your guests and your audience, please refrain from the constant interjections and interruptions.

    This says a ton about how backasswards our medical system has become. I discovered my high CAC score by going out on my own to get it done, no physician recommendation because I am metabolically healthy, not overweight at all, and have always been quite active with hard physical labor for work. Anyway, so I wanted to find out more after getting the CAC, but the ONLY thing the Dr. advised was the statin and baby aspirin. So I said no to the statin and because of that the Dr. WILL NOT TEST FURTHER. Well, I was kinda shocked. It’s like, take a statin or simply be left wondering if i have soft plaque that might cause a problem. It’s crazy that I’m TRYING to help myself before I have a heart attack and the so called cardiologist experts I’ve seen instantly just go to the pharmacy. I guess I’ll try to get a CTA exam on my own too. Very frustrating and scary when I can’t even rely on the Dr. to initiate any further testing 😢 TAKE A STATIN OR HIT THE ROAD-LUDICROUS!!!
