Posted: 5/20/2019 7:58:50 PM Edited: 5/20/2019 8:16:52 PM (3)     Soft plaque is dangerous and at risk of rupture  Calcified plaque is stable and not prone to rupture Statins increase calcium score but reduce  MACE per new study(ACM is questionable, but let’s just talk cardiac-MACE reduced significantly in pts w CAC 100-400 on statin )...just focusing on heart disease. Statins stabilize plaque  Denser calcium increases score, but reduces risk of plaque rupture  So.... if we reduce calcium score, using vitamin K2, and move calcium out the coronaries what if we are preventing stabilization of plaque, or worse yet, destabilizing calcified plaque making those areas more prone to plaque rupture?  If we have soft plaque, isn’t it best that it calcifies?  Maybe we shouldn’t be taking K2?   Tags:
