I take 150 and have been at 200. The Cardiologist said that it takes large doses sometimes to do what it needs to do. It depends on how your body metabolizes it. Even at my dose I have no side effects and my heart rate is in the 40s. They don't want it to go higher as I also have 2 aneurysms. They said that as long as I do not get light headed from the dose 40s is fine.

Maybe you should ask your doctors about supplements like Hawthorne. It is known world wide as one of the things heart patients are in need of.

Your doctors aren't wrong about a heart rate in the 40s. Again, in other countries 40 is thought to be good. The Chinese have a philosophy...we only have a certain number of beats, and after that we die. So...if you are only beating 40 times a minute your body will last far longer than those like Jim Fixx who died at age 52 and was a runner getting his heart rate up every day of his life after his dad died at age 43. BTW...Jim needed some cardiologist intervention for his blocked arteries he had not had checked out.
