Scientists Say This Simple Supplement May Actually Reverse Heart Disease

Japanese researchers report that the supplement tricaprin may help reverse triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (TGCV), a rare and often missed heart disease.

In two patients with severe coronary artery disease, follow-up imaging after tricaprin showed less arterial blockage and improved blood flow.

The findings, reported by Osaka University researchers including Ken-ichi Hirano, suggest a low-cost nutritional option could complement treatment for this difficult condition.

If confirmed in larger studies, tricaprin could offer a new approach for TGCV, which is often resistant to standard coronary therapies.
