Zinc treatment for angina pectoris
High-dose zinc to terminate angina pectoris: a review and hypothesis for action by ICAM inhibition.
Directly addresses zinc treatment
We delved into an intriguing question: Can high doses of zinc help relieve chest pain caused by angina pectoris? Our research reviewed studies that highlight how zinc may play a role in managing this condition. Angina pectoris often results from arteriosclerosis, where the arteries become narrowed due to cholesterol buildup and other factors.

We discovered that patients with severe atherosclerosis showed promising improvements when treated with high-dose zinc. Specifically, a treatment regimen involved raising serum zinc levels significantly, resulting in symptom relief for many individuals. In one notable case, 12 out of 16 patients experienced measurable benefits, including one patient who also suffered from Raynaud's disease.

Furthermore, our analysis noted that long-term exposure to zinc in the environment correlated with reduced incidence of angina and ischemic events during exercise. Zinc appears to possess antioxidant properties, which may protect against the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, a key player in artery damage. By blocking certain inflammatory factors and promoting better circulation, zinc might enhance heart function and alleviate chest pain.

Based on these findings, we propose that zinc treatment should be considered a fundamental option in both prevention and therapy for atherosclerosis-related chest pain. This could lead to a renewed focus on restoring a healthier cardiac function among those affected by these conditions.
