What actually happens when you infuse phosphatidylcholine (Plaquex)? Dr. Alice Nguyen breaks down the cell-level mechanics—how repairing membranes and supporting the endothelium can influence blood pressure, brain recovery post-stroke, and overall cardiovascular health. We also get into choline from food (eggs, liver), omega-3/omega-6 balance, environmental toxins like mercury, and where Plaquex fits alongside lifestyle, hormones, and conventional lipid-lowering meds. Todd shares his own case: after ramping Plaquex frequency, his long-stubborn BP normalized within weeks.
What we cover
What phosphatidylcholine is and why the cell membrane/endothelium matter
• Plaquex vs. food/supplement choline (and why IV ≠ oral)
• Neurologic use cases (stroke/TBI) via acetylcholine & inflammation control
• Why eggs (runny yolks) and liver are elite choline foods
• Omega-3 vs. omega-6: balancing inflammation for vessel health
• Environmental toxins (e.g., mercury) and vascular receptors
• Statins, plaque “stabilization,” and how imaging like CCTA + Cleerly is used
• Real-world observations: BP improvements during Plaquex series
• Lifestyle still rules: training, body-fat reduction, fiber, sleep, hormones
