blood clots

hey radish rose --i did and they said there was nothing they could do --i had surgery 6 years ago and had a bypass done but they said it is blocked also so i am looking on the cp to see what i can find
 

There is a natural Japanese food called Natto that is known to prevent and break down blood clots, it's more readily available in supplement form in the US. BUT.......you MUST consult with your doctor about using this since you have such a serious health problem and you probably are taking some other medications too, which may result in a bad interaction.

If you give the doctor information about this supplement, and get his approval for you to buy it on your own and try it, he must supervise your health and progress in the interim. Stay safe and ask first...good luck. http://www.nbihealth.com/t-nattokinase-research.aspx
Nattokinase Research Studies

Nattokinase is an enzyme extracted and purified from a Japanese food called Natto. Natto is a traditional food made from soybeans fermented with the bacterium, Bacillus subtilis, and has been consumed for more than 1000 years, especially in the eastern Kanto Region of Japan.[SUP]1,2,3,4[/SUP]

Nattokinase has been the subject of 17 studies, including two small human trials. In 1990, Dr. Sumi's research team published a series of studies demonstrating the fibrinolytic effects of Nattokinase.[SUP]9[/SUP] Here are some of them:

Dissolves blood clots

Researchers from JCR Pharmaceuticals, Oklahoma State University, and Miyazaki Medical College, tested Nattokinase on 12 healthy Japanese volunteers (6 men and 6 women, between the ages of 21 and 55). The researchers gave the volunteers 7 ounces of natto (the food) before breakfast, and then tracked fibrinolytic activity through a series of blood plasma tests.

In one test, a blood sample was taken and a thrombus (clot) was artificially induced. The amount of time needed to dissolve the clot was cut in half within 2 hours of treatment, compared to the control group. Additionally, the volunteers retained an enhanced ability to dissolve blood clots for up to 8 hours.[SUP]9 [/SUP]

Dr. Sumi's team also induced blood clots in a major leg vein in male dogs that had been given either four capsules of Nattokinase (250 mg per capsule) or four placebo capsules. Angiograms (x-rays of blood vessels) showed that the blood clots in the dogs that received Nattokinase had completely dissolved within 5 hours of treatment, and that normal blood circulation had been restored. Blood clots in the dogs who received the placebo showed no sign of dissolving 18 hours after the treatment.[SUP]9 [/SUP]

Researchers from Biotechnology Research Laboratories and JCR Pharmaceuticals Co. of Kobe, Japan, tested Nattokinase's ability to dissolve a blood clot in the carotid arteries of rats. Animals treated with Nattokinase regained 62 percent of blood flow, whereas those treated with plasmin regained just 15.8 percent of blood flow.[SUP]1,9[/SUP]

In another laboratory study, endothelial damage was induced in the femoral arteries of rats that had been given Nattokinase. In normal circumstances, a thickening of the artery walls and blood clotting would occur, but they were both suppressed because of Nattokinase's fibrinolytic activity.[SUP]10 [/SUP]
