Summary

This research study will compare the impact of dietary restriction pre-operatively before carotid endarterectomy compared to the standard nutrition that a patient typically eats. The investigators want to find out how patients comply and generally how well patients do with this type of dietary restriction before their surgery since animal studies suggest that short - term dietary restriction may be beneficial before surgery.
