Why are my carotid arteries weak?

why are my carotid arteries weak? I had a dissection 6 weeks ago and had an angiogram last week. I had 80% blockage before angiogram and in 1 week of no exercise and limited work, it healed to almost 0% blockage. I didn't need a stent. I am told no high imopact exercise for 3 months. Is their anything else I can do or take to make my arteries strong so this wont happen again? I love to exercise and that is how the dissection occured.

When the body does not have enough vitamin C it cannot make the artery walls and veins properly or repair them correctly. This causes them to crack under the pressure of the blood flow, like cracked water pipes. Then the body reacts to the cracking by patching it from the inside with a mixture of cholesterol, fat and other substances to cover the cracks. The buildup continues and then a blood clot may form causing a heart attack or stroke by blocking the passage. Linus Pauling claimed that high doses of the Vitamin C and the L-Lysine not only stop the patching and heals the cracks but then the body reverses the process thus strips the patch away, clearing the passage.

Vitamin C ( Ascorbic Acid), 3000-6000mg Lysine (L-Lysine), not a must but highly recommended: 500mg-2000mg Proline, 150mg-300mg CoQ10, also recommended (dose recommended on bottle): Omega 3 Fish oil, Vitamin E (d not dl(synthetic)), Potassium, Folic acid, and a good multi-vitamin.

The dosages you decide on for the vitamin C, Lysine, and Proline should be divided up into 3 portions for each day and should be taken with meals if possible...

Hello exercise,

You asked:

Is their anything else I can do or take to make my arteries strong so this wont happen again?

My answer is yes . There is an exercise that you can do that is very easy to do and not any more strenuous than getting out of bed in the morning. Although for some people who are extremely ill that may be too hard for them you can do this without any difficulty.

The exercise I am referring to is Falun Dafa Qigong . Click on the link and then navigate to the video download page. Download the videos of the 5 exercises, it's free. With daily practice of these simple yet very powerful exercises you can completely restore your health in 1 to 3 months. It did mine... Love and Light... Gary
