Understand your medicines and what they should be doing for you. Some medicines require a doctor's prescription, others at the vitamin store. You can view my medications and notice I am taking what sounds to be a lot but they all allow me to maintain a super good set of lab scores while my body is reversing the effects of my system clogging over the years. It's actually just like a complicated plumbing problem where we try to keep things flowing to the right places at the right time.
My medications list is pretty typical of most folks fighting back against this disease. Perhaps a couple medications are unique as a result of the research background of my physician. He has conducted primary research on the benefits of Nitric Acid. L-arginine's activities, including its possible anti-atherogenic actions, may be accounted for by its role as the precursor to nitric oxide or NO. NO is produced by all tissues of the body and plays very important roles in the cardiovascular system, immune system and nervous system.
Over time it has been very impressive how much my medication list has changed based on my changing body responses. When I first started my reversal journey I was on Lipitor 40 MGS and now I am on 5 MGS. These dosages have been adjusted based on my improvements over time. Research indicates that a very significant number of patients do not comply with the proper taking of medications. It important that the program be followed to get the results desired. For those who have insurance it is important that you take a leadership role in monitoring what medication you are taking and who provides it. The use of mail order companies provides certain advantages over retail pharmacy but does require oversight by the patient. The patient is the only person in the loop who has the motivation to have everything go smoothly.
