News about AI is fascinating regarding onset of arterial hardening. And bone loss. Both are connective tissue along with tendons, ligaments, etc. With respect to vascular endothelial lesions, we're looking at both circulatory systems - blood and lymphatic. Sadly, lymphatic health is just plain ignored.
Connective tissue doesn't get very much attention in orthodox Western medicine. In classical Chinese medicine the connective tissue is the highway of the acupuncture system, meaning our primary transmission of energy/messages. In newer biophysical science it's called the perineuroral system, transmitting information at quantum speeds, hence far faster than the central nervous system. I suspect our obsession with CNS is entirely due to the taboo against knowing the depths of mind and nature that for too long occupied Western culture first in religion then inherited by 19th century science - resulting in an essentially incomplete, hence hampered, attempt at science.
By 1990 American two time Nobel Prize winner Lineas Pauling developed simple, inexpensive method for stopping and reversing arterial plaque based cardiovascular disease. The plaque that develops happens due to the kind of 'blistering' of vascular tissue Jay Campbell tells us about - that's lesions in the tissue, so think of them as potholes in your arteries. Plaque is an adaptive response like filling in a pothole with tar until resurfacing repair is done. Except our medicine does not even think about repair other than bypasses and grafting, or inserting stents that haven't proven worthwhile.
Pauling reasoned that vascular tissue is connective tissue, hence made of the protein collagen. His method for aiding lesions involves taking ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and the amino acid l-lysine to make new collagen. He found adding the amino acid l-proline makes it work even better. In research trials it was noticed that after several months serum cholesterol levels started rising and stayed that way for a while, then dropped - evidencing arterial repair resulting in the body getting ride of the cholesterol laden plaque.
Another inexpensive line of defense and repair is vitamin K2. If you've taken or take statins (more pseudo science scams), one effect is shuttind down your mitochondria from making K2, resulting in calcium not going to your bones but depositing in arteries. As a preventative, adding K2 is a good idea.
There are commercial preparations of lysine, proline and C - pretty inexpesive, certainly more convenient that bottles of powders - I buy bullk pharma grade.
After 16 years on Letrozole first, then arimidex I'm dosing daily on the Pauling formula. Added to it the same physician also had me take connective tissue damaging Cipro (one side effect is aortic dissection and aneurysms) apparently because he didn't pay attention to FDA warnings to restrict use. He tried prescribing it again in 2016 convincing me he'd learned nothing. He's a good one to avoid!
