6 Vitamins to Unclog Your Arteries | May 30, 2025
Annonce:

Atherosclerosis is a condition where the inner walls of your arteries become damaged and clogged with a hardened substance known as plaque. This buildup narrows the arteries and restricts the normal flow of blood, leading to poor circulation and increasing your risk of heart attacks, strokes, and blood clots.

What’s Really Going On?
Your heart pumps oxygen-rich blood through your arteries to keep your body alive and functioning. But when the inner lining of those arteries becomes inflamed or damaged—often due to stress, poor diet, smoking, and other factors—tiny cracks or lesions start to form.

In response, your body sends LDL cholesterol to these areas like a sort of biological bandage. However, if the underlying causes aren’t addressed, the arteries continue to deteriorate. Over time, plaque forms—a hardened mix of scar tissue (fibrin), calcium, cholesterol, and other debris.

This plaque hardens like bone, narrowing the arteries even more and obstructing blood flow. If a major coronary artery becomes completely blocked, it can lead to a heart attack—and even death.

Symptoms of Blocked Arteries
You might feel pressure or pain in your chest—especially during physical activity or emotional stress—that eases when you rest. This kind of discomfort often stems from high blood pressure and poor blood flow to and from the heart.

Other warning signs include pain or swelling on the left side of the body, such as the left shoulder or arm. You may also find it harder to breathe, especially while walking, because your arteries aren’t delivering enough oxygen.

In some people, there are no symptoms at all. Plaque can silently build up for decades before causing a major blockage. If left untreated, it can thicken and greatly increase your risk of heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, or even death.

6 Vitamins That Can Help Clear Your Arteries
In this section, we’ll cover six vitamins that may help clear your arteries and improve blood flow. You’ll also learn simple lifestyle changes to address the root causes of arterial blockages.

1. Vitamin K2 (MK-7)
Vitamin K2 is one of the most crucial nutrients for preventing and reversing plaque buildup. It activates a protein (MGP) that stops calcium from settling in your blood vessels and redirects it to your bones—where it belongs.

You can start with a daily supplement of 200 mcg of Vitamin K2 (MK-7). Natural sources include sauerkraut, natto (fermented soybeans), and beef liver.

 

2. Krill Oil (Astaxanthin)
Whether you’re looking to clear clogged arteries or protect them, krill oil is one of the most powerful supplements available. It’s rich in astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant that fights inflammation and oxidative damage in the arteries, keeping blood flowing freely and helping to maintain stable blood pressure.

Take 1,000 to 4,000 mg of krill oil daily in capsule form.
