High calcium score: I'm in shock

Hello, can you tell us how long it took for your CAC score to drop from 199 to 18? I was just told this past Tuesday that my CAC score was 2534!! Quite shocking given I've exercised all my life, have always maintained a healthy weight (155 lbs. at 5'7"), hiked for the last 30 years, very rarely ate red meat the last 10 years, non-smoker and non-drinker. I started taking 100mcg of K2 today after reading it could help reduce calcium build-up in the arteries (not remove, but just keep it from building up).

Thanks,

Andy

This probably doesn't apply to you (owing to age or other) but this is as good a time as any to remind anyone taking blood thinners that Vitamin is pretty much poison for such.

That would apply to people with AFIB for which they'd be taking an anti-coagulant.
