Nanobes and Coronary Artery Disease

Something I Discovered En Route to Looking Up Other Things

I got my chest CT results and an incidental finding is that I have "severe coronary calcification." So, I started looking up ways to decrease it and found a great article on outpatient chelation therapy. The researchers used a combination of plant powders and tetracycline orally, and EDTA suppositories per rectum. 

But why the antibiotic? The article sites nanobacteria (nanobes) as a causative factor in coronary artery disease and the tetracycline kills them off. 

This is the first time I've heard about nanobes, sooo...

Polyphenols

Polyphenols are chemicals found abundantly in many types of foods, especially brightly colored fruits and veggies, but also teas, coffee, chocolate, and herbs/spices. Red wines are a rich source, too.

Of the top 5 polyphenol-containing foods, four are from berries. In order:

1. Wild Blueberries
2. Blackberries
3. Pomegranate
4. Cranberries
5. Blueberries

You can add strawberries and raspberries as close contenders.

Try to include at least 2 cups per day of these fruits in your diet.
