What is the best way to prevent plaque buildup in our arteries as we age?

1. Exercise regularly. This produces HDL cholesterol, which dissolves plaque in the arteries.
2. Take omega-3 fatty acid supplements (molecularly distilled) daily. It keeps the omega-6 to omega-3 ratio balanced and prevents LDL elevation.
3. Eat 2 tablespoons of virgin olive oil per day. Healthy Olive Oil - Medical Articles by Dr. Ray
4. Keep your body mass index between 21.0 and 22.0. To achieve this, you probably need to cut out sugar and cut down carbs significantly. Also keep your fat intake in the low to medium category.
5. Some supplements are helpful: CoQ-10, 400 mg daily. Probiotics. Vitamin K2 200 micrograms daily, vitamin D3, 5000 to 6000 IU daily.

This is the basic of keeping your arteries unplugged.
