This is a repost of a link on an earlier thread:

The point that caught my eye was the discussion about 'distrubed flow'
effects on oxidase fractions. This seems to dovetail with a lot of
common sense observations -- that obstructive problems tend to develop
downstream of bends and constrictions in critical arteries. Aspirin and
coumadin thin the blood, reducing flow disturbances. Pomegranate juice
works the reaction side of the situation. POM might be just a great
replacement for Plavix -- at a fraction of the price. POM + Vitamin E
might be a real winner. This one is worth watching.
