The Clot Thickens - Dr Malcolm Kendrick - Columbus Publishing

In short, it is not remotely controversial to say that blood clots represent the final event, the thing that kills you. Nor is it controversial to say that plaques grow through the deposition of a new clot on top of an existing plaque. I would get very little argument from any cardiologist about this sequence of events. I know, I have had many such discussions. Sorry for the pessimistic view, but whether it’s the majority supporting the governments’ policies or the governments imposing those policies being controlled by world banks, etc., the outcome is the same. I’m in the middle of the book and it’s very well done, as expected. One question that has come to mind is at one point you say that they haven’t found a way to lower LP(a), but I’ve read at least one study saying evolocumab lowers LP(a). Interestingly, that study also says that the quartile with the highest LP(a) was at the highest risk for CVD events, irrespective of LDL levels. But that doesn’t seem to get any comment. I am at the part where you discuss the role of endothelial cells, and how for so long they were disregarded, or viewed as being a passive player. It seems to me that as in Blade Runner where Tyrell is explaining to Roy the facts of life “The flame that burns twice as bright burns half as long” is no idle boast.Kuhn, a physicist turned philosopher of science, points out that science doesn’t progress smoothly, one minor discovery piled on another with the overall view being continuously adjusted to accommodate new data.

I rather doubt if that would make a big difference. Perhaps more likely that sportsmen and wome The cause of endothelial DAMAGE is homocysteine. Its caused by too high protein intake, meat, and not enough folate from leafy greens, aka Vitimin B, to convert homocysteine to next step. Yes, really, just like you were always told, eat your salads. We understand that clotting is more pronounced in arteries where they branch and bend. So, can’t sluggishness in arteries be a precipitating as well as a contributory factor? (And of course a very important factor once the vessel is narrowed by plaque.) It is also widely accepted that thrombus formation, on top of an already existing plaque, can make plaques suddenly jump in size. Here, for example, is a passage from a paper in the journal Atherosclerosis. This is about as mainstream a publication as you can get in cardiovascular disease research. The paper was called: ‘ The role of plaque rupture and thrombosis in coronary artery disease.’Below, for example, is a list of factors that are closely associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. It comes from the latest UK cardiovascular risk factor calculator, called Qrisk3, which you can see here https://qrisk.org/three/ Thank you for challenging orthodoxy and thinking differently, you are not the first and won’t be the last (I hope)! Hear, hear! I have no problem with others wearing masks if they wish to but would like the same courtesy to be extended to me for choosing not to!
