Summary

TLDRThis script delves into the issue of clogged arteries, characterized by plaque buildup, inflammation, and often associated with high blood pressure. It critiques the use of statins, highlighting their limited effectiveness and potential side effects. The discussion pivots to nattokinase, a Japanese remedy derived from fermented soybeans, which has been shown to significantly reduce thrombosis, lower oxidative LDL, and exhibit anti-inflammatory properties. Nattokinase's ability to lower blood pressure, increase HDL, and decrease the risk of strokes without adverse effects positions it as a promising alternative for arterial health.

Takeaways

  • 🧠 A clogged artery is filled with plaque, which is a combination of fibrin (a connective tissue protein) and calcium, often accompanied by arterial stiffening and inflammation.
  • 🚫 Statins, while promoted for their cholesterol-lowering effects, can have side effects such as myopathy, erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, neuropathy, dementia, and an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke and cancer.
  • 📊 The script criticizes the manipulation of statistics in studies to exaggerate the benefits of statins, highlighting the difference between relative risk reduction and absolute risk reduction.
  • 🌟 Nattokinase, an enzyme derived from natto (fermented soybeans), is presented as a potential remedy for unclogging arteries, with numerous health benefits and minimal side effects.
  • 🩸 Nattokinase is described as a potent fibrinolytic compound that can break up blood clots effectively, reducing thrombosis by 88% within six hours.
  • 🛡️ It has strong anti-inflammatory properties, which can address the root cause of arterial plaque formation due to inflammation.
  • 💊 Nattokinase is said to lower blood pressure, inhibit arterial wall thickening, increase HDL (good cholesterol), and lower triglycerides.
  • 🧪 A 2004 study mentioned in the script showed that nattokinase, when combined with ginseng, could help decrease the risk of strokes and even shrink plaque in the aorta, as observed in animal studies.
  • 🌿 Vitamin K2, abundant in natto, is associated with nattokinase, although the script does not confirm if nattokinase itself contains this vitamin.
  • 🌐 The script suggests that more information on plaque and its relation to vitamin K2 can be found in a video with 10 million views, which discusses the best meal to clean out arteries.
  • 🔍 The speaker encourages further research into nattokinase as a natural remedy for arterial health, positioning it as a preferable alternative to statins.

Q & A

  • What is a clogged artery?

    -A clogged artery is one filled with plaque, a substance composed of fibrin (a connective tissue protein) and calcium. This condition often leads to arterial stiffening, inflammation, and associated high blood pressure.

  • What is the difference between relative risk reduction and absolute risk reduction?

    -Relative risk reduction refers to the percentage decrease in risk when comparing a treatment group to a control group. Absolute risk reduction, on the other hand, is the actual difference in risk between the two groups, providing a more accurate measure of the treatment's effectiveness.

  • What are some potential side effects of Statin medication?

    -Potential side effects of Statin medication include myopathy (muscle problems), erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, neuropathy, dementia, and an increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke and cancer.

  • What is Nattokinase and what is its primary function?

    -Nattokinase is an enzyme found in Natto, which is fermented soybeans. It is a potent fibrinolytic compound that helps break up blood clots and has anti-inflammatory properties.

  • How does Nattokinase affect LDL cholesterol?

    -Nattokinase has a direct effect on oxidative LDL cholesterol, which is involved in clot formation. It helps to lower the levels of this pathogenic type of cholesterol.

  • What is the relationship between Nattokinase and blood pressure?

    -Nattokinase has been shown to lower blood pressure by inhibiting the thickening of arterial walls and improving overall arterial health.

  • How does Nattokinase impact HDL and triglycerides?

    -Nattokinase has been observed to increase HDL (good cholesterol) levels and lower triglycerides, contributing to improved cardiovascular health.

  • What was the outcome of the study combining Nattokinase with ginseng?

    -The study, which was conducted on animals, showed a shrinkage of plaque in the aorta when Nattokinase was combined with ginseng, suggesting potential benefits for arterial health.

  • Are there any known adverse effects of Nattokinase?

    -According to the script, there were virtually no adverse effects associated with Nattokinase, making it a potentially safe alternative to some medications.

  • What is the significance of vitamin K2 in the context of arterial health?

    -Vitamin K2, found in Natto, is important for arterial health as it plays a role in the proper utilization of calcium, potentially reducing arterial calcification and improving overall vascular health.

  • How does the script suggest Nattokinase could be beneficial for the brain?

    -The script suggests that Nattokinase could help reduce the risk of strokes by addressing plaque in the carotid arteries, which supply blood to the brain.
