What is Plaquex?
Plaquex, chemically known as phosphatidylcholine, is a natural substance found in every living cell. It is a blend of essential phospholipids, including phosphorus, glycerol, and fatty acids. Phosphatidylcholine is a critical component of cell membranes, constituting about 70% of the cell walls in humans.
The Dangers of Cell Damage
As we age, the phosphatidylcholine in our cell membranes can become damaged, and the body struggles to produce enough to repair this damage. Factors like toxic substances, free radicals, heavy metals, detergents, smoking, high blood sugar, and elevated stress hormones can all contribute to cell wall damage. This damage can lead to the expulsion of LDL cholesterol from cell membranes, raising LDL levels in the blood serum and contributing to plaque formation in blood vessels.
This plaque buildup can cause cardiovascular disease and damage to the kidneys, liver, and brain. Additionally, a lack of sufficient phosphatidylcholine can hinder the body’s natural healing processes, as this compound has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
How Plaquex Therapy Works
Oral phosphatidylcholine supplements are often absorbed by the liver, with minimal amounts reaching other parts of the body. This makes it challenging to deliver the compound to damaged blood vessels where it’s needed most. Plaquex therapy, administered intravenously, bypasses this issue by delivering phosphatidylcholine directly into the bloodstream. This method effectively removes fatty and hardened plaques from blood vessels, targeting both cholesterol and calcium deposits.
Benefits of Plaquex Therapy
The primary benefit of Plaquex therapy is the reduction of plaque buildup in the arteries, which is crucial for treating atherosclerosis—a condition characterized by the hardening of arteries due to cholesterol, fats, and other substances. Plaquex therapy helps reduce LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing beneficial HDL cholesterol levels.
Additionally, Plaquex therapy restores cell membrane integrity and function, improving cell metabolism and organ function, including the liver and kidneys. Enhanced blood flow and improved oxygen exchange reduce the need for blood thinners and can strengthen the heart’s ability to withstand stress, particularly important for individuals recovering from heart attacks or other cardiac issues.
The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of phosphatidylcholine in Plaquex therapy further support the body’s natural healing processes, helping to reduce chronic inflammation and promote overall health. This therapy can also improve nutrient absorption, skin texture, and contribute to a healthier, more youthful appearance.
