The #1 Overlooked Cause of Artery Calcification

from Dr. Berg’s Healthy Keto and Intermittent Fasting Podcast · host Dr. Eric Berg DC

Today we’re going to talk about an overlooked cause of coronary artery calcification: lactic acidosis. Lactic acidosis occurs as a byproduct of glucose metabolism. Both lactic acidosis and lactate in the blood are associated with various health issues, including: • Heart attacks • Thrombosis • Panic attacks • Autonomic nervous system dysfunction • Bipolar disorder • Schizophrenia • Sepsis • Arrhythmia problems • Liver disease • Diabetes • Cancer • Restless leg syndrome Calcification in the arteries is not just caused by old age, consuming too much calcium, or even a vitamin K2 deficiency. It turns out that one cause of vascular calcification is hypoxia in the arteries. Hypoxia is a lack of oxygen, and this lack of oxygen in the arteries can be caused by lactic acidosis. The top causes of lactic acidosis: • A high-carb diet • An overactive sympathetic dominance situation (chronic stress) • Metformin • Warfarin • Statins • Alcohol • Overtraining The top symptoms of lactic acidosis are breathing problems and restlessness, especially in the leg muscles. How to get rid of lactic acidosis: 1. Get on the keto diet 2. Reduce your stress 3. Consume natural vitamin B1 (thiamine) DATA: https://assets.cureus.com/uploads/cas... https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.11... https://www.hormonesmatter.com/covid-... https://www.liebertpub.com/doi/10.108..
