"Oh my aching back"
The bit about back pain and circulatory disorders came from a book called "foods that fight pain" Neal Barnard MD.
Chapter 1 "Oh my aching back"
pg 14 in essence - the abdominal aorta is among the first to develop plaque - post mortems Finland showed the average person with a history of back pain was found to have two arteries in the lower back blocked - could it be that often back pain starts in the arteries the book asks.
Which many of these books would argue brings us back to diet, including fats particularly the omega three six balance.
Hope you are feeling a bit better
