“What vitamins help unclog arteries?”

NO DATA

There is no evidence that vitamins can "unclog" arteries. Once you have a blockage in your arteries it's important to make sure to quit smoking (if you are a smoker), and your cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, and any other modifiable risk factors are under control.

No vitamins are able to unclog arteries. A diet low in saturated fat, animal fats, and high in polyunsaturated fats from vegetables is the best way along with not smoking, maintaining a normal body weight and exercising regularly to prevent the clogging of arteries with cholesterol and prevention of both heart attacks and strokes. Once an artery is "clogged," continuing or more aggressively following these steps is essential, but only in combination with effective medications, can some arteries become unblocked. Without the use of medications, it's very rare that a clogged artery will become less clogged with even very diligent attention to lifestyle changes.
