What Vitamin Supplements Should Be Taken By A Heart Patient While On A Vegan Diet?
My husband has heart disease and is taking Lipitor , Lisinopril , Isororbide and Metoprolol . He has had a double bypass and two stents and most of his back heart valves are blocked. He is 67 years old. We are trying a vegan diet to possibly reverse his heart disease , but were concerned about which vitamin supplements he should be taking to ensure optimum health . thank you
As such no specific vitamin is related to Ischemic hear disease. However one multivitamin tablet daily is advisable as restricted diet may not provide adequate daily requirement of vitamins.
