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.
3. Vitamin E (Tocotrienols)
