How can one reduce fatty material in leg arteries?

Answer 1

Improving the diet so that less saturated fat and cholesterol are consumed would be the most obvious way to reduce the accumulation of fats in the body. Eliminating red meats such as beef, bacon and whole dairy products would be a great first step. Increasing fiber intake drastically would be another great step to take. You can also talk to your doctor about drugs that may block these fats from attaching. There is a natural supplement called Red Yeast Rice (from a Chinese yeast that grows on rice) also called RYR that is basically chemically similar to the statin drug lovastatin. You might try it if you aren't desperate for real results, since there is no way to tell how much statin is in the stuff and no research to tell you whether it is going to be effective or not. Most of the evidence on RYR is anecdotal. They sell RYR at Costco. If you think you might need real statins or low-dose aspirin, talk to a physician (MD, DO, PA, or NP).
