This Specific Type of Arthritis Causes Heart Attack and Death

Arthritis is normally associated with pain, stiffness, and difficulty carrying out basic tasks.

But researchers from The Chinese University of Hong Kong have now shown that one type is a direct cause of death by heart attack.

Their study appeared in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases. Like other types of arthritis, it is chronic, but it differs from rheumatoid and osteoarthritis.

The good news is, that you can actually both reverse your arthritis and avoid heart attack in one very straight forward way.

Psoriatic arthritis (PSA) is an inflammatory type of arthritis that normally appears along with skin psoriasis, or at least in people whose close family members have skin psoriasis.

The Hong Kong researchers decided to test whether people with this disease are more or less likely than the general population to have atherosclerosis, which is the name for plaque in your arteries.

They recruited 90 patients with psoriatic arthritis (PSA) and 240 healthy subjects, with the average age 50.

They used coronary CT angiography to examine the amount and types of plaques in their arteries.

They found:

1. People with PSA were much more likely than non PSA sufferers to have plaque-filled arteries.
2. PSA patients had more calcified and non-calcified plaque.
3. They had more mixed plaque.
4. They had more obstructive plaque.
5. PSA patients were much more likely to have blockages of more than 50% in their three main coronary arteries.

This is a bleak picture, especially the findings regarding non-calcified and mixed plaques. These are the plaques that are the most likely to rupture and block arteries completely, causing heart attacks and strokes.

The good news is that thousands of people have used my step-by-step strategy to completely rid themselves of ALL types of arthritis. Test-drive it yourself here…

If you already have clogged heart arteries, here is the simple 3-step strategy that clears out plaque buildup. And all it takes is cutting out one, single ingredient you may not even realize you’re consuming…
