I am 63 years old and had quadruple CABGs at 41 and an occlusion in my left eye at 61, leaving my left carotid artery blocked.

I have eaten very little meat since leaving home at 18, being vegetarian for most of it. I stopped having milk in my porridge in 2005 due to sinus issues, which have reduced dramatically. I started eating oily fish C2000 after attending a lecture on nutrition. I have been blaming cheese, butter and eggs for my blocked arteries for years. These reports seem to be saying that they are not the cause. Having eaten very little meat, processed or otherwise I am baffled as to the cause of my blocked arteries.

The linked reports aren't about diet!

The BHF report sounded very interesting.

The bnp tests were in themselves a huge advance, so making them more accurate is even better.

Oops! I responded to the wrong post. Thanks for pointing that out.
