A major
effort is planned by the American Heart Association to raise public awareness
of peripheral artery disease.
Patients
with “poor circulation” are not being detected, evaluated or treated for this
condition.
Affected patients have up to
a four-fold risk of heart attack, stroke, or cardiovascular death. An estimated
200 million people world-wide are affected by PAD.
Conventional treatment is basically regular
exercise until the condition gets bad enough to require surgery.
Medications can help symptoms, but do not
alter the disease process.
IV chelation
can be a very effective therapy.
