[|Human|] I have a congenital bicuspid aortic valve.Is coconut oil good for it?I also take flaxseed oil and is there anything that can help it and save myself from surgery later on. May I add that the regurgitation is minimal and I am 64years young and walk briskly every day for an hour.(female)
[|AI|]  No medication has yet proven role in slowing the progression of stenosis of BAV. There are individual studies which said Statin group of medication and omega 3 fatty acid (flaxseed, cod fish oil) may help. However, at 64 years of age if there is no stenosis, I don't foresee any progression soon. Minimal regurgitation is inconsequential. Coconut oil doesn't help rather it may increase your bad cholesterol and would be harmful in long run. Regards
