Has anyone seen a reduction in their CAC score from taking vitamin K2?

Most interesting that you infer Brazil nuts will lower the cholesterol. Where did you read or hear about this being beneficial for cholesterol? I know that Brazil nuts are high in selenium and wondered if it is attributable to this? Thanks

The data on this is mixed. Some studies show some benefits; others show that too much selenium can actually raise your cholesterol.
Also note that selenium can interfere with statins, so someone taking statins should probably not be eating Brazil nuts. Unrelated: people taking statins should avoid grapefruit.
