What are the best methods for removing plaque from the artery?

Really-- how do you know it is under control ? did you do Calcium Score test - before and after 3 or 6 months ?
As I understand - calcium is only 20 % of plaque. And Vitamin K2 ( as MK-7 ) helps bind - or reduce calcium from existing plaque and carries to bones. Also need Vitamin D3 and boron - to complete the process.
Magnesium ( usually 50 % ) is required for bone density increase - taken along with calcium - boron and D3 - as supplements.

In that case--you dont need additional calcium and boron for bones--
You get all supplements at Health Food store or GNC or Vitamin Shoppe - franchise --NOT at Sprouts ( not sure )..
Calcium Score test is usually $ 600 --but in Atlanta, Georgia -you can get doen for $ 100 -- and I had coupon - done mine for $ 25
My calcium score is checked annually.

@champak045, Thank you for your reply. It was extremely informative. I will get some K2. They probably sell it at Sprouts along with the boron. I began taking D3 as soon as I was told mine was low. My bone scan shows they are much stronger than is usual for women my age.
Yes I have had the Calcium Score test, but it has yet to be repeated due to my health plan requiring about a year between testing.
