Cholesterol Sulfate Deficiency and Coronary Heart Disease
By Stephanie Seneff, PhD
Despite decades of research, atherosclerosis remains a poorly explained phenomenon. The simple story experts present to the public is that excess choles- terol accumulates in the blood and combines with other substances to form an atheroma (also called plaque) that lodges in the artery wall, eventually obstructing flow. Strikingly, however, the lipid deposits accumulate only in arteries and never in veins. Even more striking is the fact
that the arteries supplying the heart are the most vulnerable. The conventional explanation leaves unanswered many questions about the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Why does cardiovascular plaque accumulate only in arteries, and preferentially in arteries supplying the heart? What prompts the occurrence of inflammation, which many believe to be a critical factor in heart disease? Why have studies on vitamin D supplementation proved disappointing despite research showing a strong inverse relationship between sunlight availability and heart disease?
