Stents Have Been Proven not to Prevent Heart Attacks
This articles is from the JAMA pointing out stent treatment needs more treatment than just a stent. It is a systemic disease that causes the need for a stent and will need systemic treatment with something like l-arginine.
Can s/p MI patients (ST changes, bumped up troponin and got a stent) take L-arginine or should it be avoided? Would 4 scoops daily prevent any further heart disease?

Dr Joe,
You quoted someone as saying ''for 30 percent of CVD patients, NOTHING is going to do them any good.''
Not even ProArgi 9 Plus is going to do them any good? Have I been wasting my money?
