I have ubderstood and therefore believe that the Pauling regimen for reduction of heart desease is correct. However, if it is correct that it is the absence of Vit C and not enough lysine and proline that is the cause of heart desease, then how do others advocate the Pritican diet:

to also effective in reducing heart desease.
Although, the Budwig diet concentrates on effective cancer treatment, it is stated that it also treats heart desease:
http://www.cancertutor.com/Cancer/Budwig.html
"she also treated other chronic diseases such as Arthritis, Heart Infarction, Irregular Heart Beat, .............. Arteriosclerosis and other chronic diseases."
Although neither of these alternatives are explained as to how they work for heart desease, in technical terms, there is statistical evidence that they do.
Neither of these alternatives have large amounts of Vit C, in fact on the Budwig diet Vit C suplementation is discouraged. They both have low amounts of lysine and proline.
Does anyone have expalanations for these?
