Nothing wrong with your diet. I had something very similar the first five years. Since then I have added raw nuts, seeds and plenty of green leaves. All combined together in a daily shot of green smoothie.
Another thing I have done from the start is to take vitamin supllements daily. It may be unnecessary but I felt I needed extra support since I was way down with heart problems.
Besides taking vitamins I slowly stopped all medication. I believe in the long run medication does more harm than good. Just read the list of reported side-effects. It is never a pretty story.
Wish you very good health.

I am sure I would have done the same thing. In a critical situation the stent may be the only feasible option. Lifestyle and diet changes need some time to kick off. If you can accpet that risk then say "no".
In the long term, it is not the stents that save lives, but being under continuous control and handled with more stents and bypass that add a couple of years. After all saying no to treatment means you are on your own.

No medication in the last 5 years.I stopped taking statins, beta-blockers, baby aspirins and nitrospray. I did this over a period of two years, slowly reduced the portions and finally stopped.
I have put the information about my diet/lifestyle on a non commercial website for my family and friends. Here you can read about what I eat and do daily. Link is : http://www.club150s.com/my-daily-diet-and-exercise-summer-2011/
Diet consists of basic products listed here: Fresh vegetables, fruit and dried herbs and spices
I hope this helps. If not then contact me.

I am still around and I am healthy. I am really amazed that I have survived almost 10 years of heart problems without drugs or operations. Life is good and getting better all the time.
By the way I just turned 60.
