Arterial stiffness reduced by Omega-3, Vitamin D, Vitamin K2, Magnesium, etc.
Arterial Stiffness and other cardiocascular problems have been proven to be reduced by supplementation by each of the nutrients which have decreased over the past 50 years. I do not know which is "best". Perhaps they work synergistically.
I personally take Vitamin D + Vitamin K + Omega-3 + Magnesium.

Measure Arterial Velocity at home - $150 iPad (SW version: 3+), or iPhone (SW version: 4S+),Android (SW version: 5.0+)
I purchased a product to go with my iPad to measure my Arterial Velocity. Clips on the finger and makes the measurement in about 1 minute. Seems to be supported by good science. The iPad displays your realtive Arterial Velocity, etc. I have the Arterial Velocity of a person who is 20 years younger (51 instead of my actual 71)
