Supplemental Carnitine (2 - 3 grams per day) may alleviate the symptoms of Angina and may allow Angina patients to become more physically active: [3]
Propionyl-L-Carnitine may improve Heart function in Angina patients. [4]
The synthetic Amino Acid - Ethylene-Diamine-Tetra-Acetate (EDTA) - is used in Chelation Therapy to bond to and chelate (remove) many Toxic Heavy Metals from the body of Angina patients - this therapy must be administered by a qualified practitioner. [5]
Glutamine may improve the function of the Heart in Angina patients. [6]
Lysine may help to reduce the symptoms of Angina. [7]
Carbohydrates
Ribose may increase Energy production in the Cardiac Muscle of Angina patients. [8]
Enzymes
Bromelain may treat Angina (by stimulating the breakdown of Fibrinogen). [9]
Lumbrokinase may alleviate Angina. [10]
Hormones
DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone) (up to 100 mg per day) may alleviate the symptoms (tautness, heaviness and chest pains) associated with Angina. [11]
