DESCRIPTION

Cardio Health Support formula provides the foundation

for a healthy cardiovascular system by supplying the many

nutrients, herbs and other cofactors that help protect against

the damaging effects of free radicals and homocysteine, and

help support cardiovascular function.

FUNCTIONS

The average heart beats approximately 100,000 times a day,

pumping close to 2,000 gallons of blood through its chambers.

This level of activity requires significant nutritional support.

In addition to the heart’s nutritional needs, compounds like

free radicals and homocysteine are a constant threat to its

health and function. Cardio Health Support can be regarded

as two separate formulas – nutritional support for metabolic

requirements and protective support to fend off free radicals

and lower homocysteine levels.

Nutritional support starts with magnesium, which helps

support normal heart rhythm. Since the heart’s primary fuel

source is fatty acids, carnitine is added to assist in fatty acid

metabolism. The heart has some of the highest concentrations

of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in the body. Without CoQ10, the

heart – and the rest of the body – ceases to function. Hawthorn

has traditionally been used for heart conditions and there is

evidence to suggest that it exerts an inotropic effect that may

help support heart function. Like hawthorn, the amino acid

taurine helps regulate the contractile force of heart muscle.

Additional studies demonstrate that taurine may reduce

the secretion of apolipoprotein B100, a compound that is

considered a major risk factor for heart disease.

The protective function of Cardio Health Support stems from

the blend of antioxidants and nutrients to lower homocysteine

levels. Vitamins E and C are important fat- and water-soluble

antioxidants respectively. Other antioxidants include green

tea, grape seed extract, citrus bioflavonoids, and CoQ10.

Horsechestnut contains several compounds shown to support

healthy vascular function and tone. Vitamins B-6, B-12 and

folic acid help to maintain healthy levels of homocysteine.

Finally, numerous studies on niacin and soy support their roles

in supporting healthy cholesterol levels.

INDICATIONS

Cardio Health Support may be a useful dietary supplement

for those looking to support healthy cardiac function, healthy

homocysteine levels and reduce free radicals.
