Vitamin E reduces risk of heart disease
More than 50 years ago, Canadian physicians reported that adequate, natural vitamin E. could protect against heart disease. Until recently, many physicians regarded vitamin E. supplements with some skepticism. However, today the scientific evidence strongly supports adequate, natural vitamin E. benefits to the heart.
Vitamin E. refers to a group of 8 natural compounds alpha-, beta-, gamma-, and delta-tocopherols and tocotrienols. The body does not manufacture vitamin E.; it must be provided by foods and supplements. Thetocopherols and tocotrienols found in natural vitamin E. are proven antioxidants. Antioxidants slow and reduce the oxidation of LDL (bad) cholesterol. Studies suggest that oxidation increases the risk of arteriosclerosis. Therefore, vitamin E. supplements such as Ultra Antioxidant from Pure Essentials can help prevent heart disease by reducing oxidation. Vitamin E. is also a mild anticoagulant (blood thinner) went excessive clotting is present; therefore, like aspirin, it may reduce the risk of blood clots.
In a study of more than 2000 patience in Cambridge England, doctors discovered that natural vitamin E. supplements reduce the risk of heart disease by 77 percent. Researchers in the United States conducted this study on the effects of vitamin supplements among man who had undergone a bypass surgery. Overall, men who took more vitamin E. supplements showed significantly less coronary artery disease progression. In another U.S. study among older subjects, the use of vitamin E. supplements reduced the risk of heart disease mortality by 47 percent.
Clearly, with you are trying to reduce your risk of developing heart disease or would like to minimize current progression, mixed, natural vitamin E. supplements such as Ultra Antioxidant from Pure Essentials is a wise choice.
CoQ10 Protection
Coenzyme Q10 is a naturally occurring nutrient normally present in the body. It is also available in food (especially fish or meat) and supplements.
During the 1970s, scientist began researching CoQ10's antioxidant abilities. CoQ10 is now established as an effective antioxidant that helps protect cells from free radical damage. Studies confirm that this nutrient is safe and effective for a variety of heart conditions.
Researchers believe that CoQ10 decreases blood pressure by decreasing oxidative stress inpatient already receiving conventional treatment for high blood pressure. A study involving patience with congestive heart failure concluded that patients with congestive heart failure may benefit from treatment with CoQ10. In other four-week study suggests that CoQ10 administration significantly improve the amount of blood the heart pumps with each stroke.
Active Co-factors such as (Q10 (CoQ10) and tocotrienols) are often deficient in adults over age 30. Ultra Antioxidant with rice bran oil delivers three times more CoQ10 than dry CoQ1O, plus the benefit of gamma oryzanol (an important anabolic, cell-strengthening agent). CoQlO (30-300 mg,/day) and tocotrienols (60-180 mcg./day) work synergistically to nourish cardiovascular health, Some studies indicate that adding coenzyme Q10 (60-300 mg,/day) to conventional therapy can significantly reduce hospitalization for heart failure. Tocotrienol, reduce fats in the bloodstream, particularly triglycerides.
Benefits of L-Glutamine
L-Glutamine, is a primary fuel for the intestines, muscles, brain, and liver. It supports and promotes healthy heart muscle and promotes overall health. Ultra Glutamine from Pure Essential is an excellent source of quality L-Glutamine.
Magnesium Benefits
Soluble, ionized magnesium is a natural mineral. Magnesium deficiency is fairly common (estimated at 80 percent of unwell people) ; therefore, most people could benefit from magnesium supplementation.
Magnesium may offer a significant protection against atherosclerosis. Scientific data reveals that individuals who die suddenly of heart attacks have significantly lower levels of magnesium and potassium in their heart tissue than people dying of other causes. Studies also indicate that magnesium deficiency produces spasms of the coronary arteries. This deficiency is thought to be a cause of heart attacks due to coronary artery spasm. Many researchers conclude that magnesium supplements such as
Ultra Magnesium may be helpful in the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis .
In addition, magnesium supplementation with Ultra Magnesium increases the levels of healthy cholesterol (HDL) and prolonged's clotting time. According to Mildred Seelig, M.D., Ph.D., a premier magnesium researcher, magnesium is" natures calcium channel blocker".
Antioxidants
Antioxidants (including tocopherols = natural vitamin E): Oxidation is implicated in the buildup of plaque on artery walls that can lead to atherosclerosis(i.e., hardening of the arteries). Antioxidants protect against oxidation (ie, free radical) damage. Studies have revealed lower rates of coronary heart disease and death in persons who consume large quantities of antioxidants in foods or supplements. This evidence suggests that patients with heart disease may benefit from taking mixed, natural vitamin E (200-1,200 IU/day), tocotrienols, Coenzyme Q10 in rice bran oil, and other antioxidants in appropriate dosages. Selenium in the selenoe-thionine form is needed to activate vitamin E properly in the cell membrane. Pure Essential Ultra Antioxidant offers you the very best quality in an all natural Vitamin E as an antioxidant.
Among other antioxidant formulas,Pure Essential 2 contains 17 antioxidants, including mixed, natural vitamin E., which disarm free radicals (i.e., reactive molecules that can damage the heart cells). It also contains niacin and niacinacinide, B vitamins known to reduce cholesterol levels, Tocotrienols can reduce blood fat levels is well.
Buffering Minerals
Buffering minerals, in bioactive, fully soluble forms the body can easily absorb. We need a proper balance of potassium, magnesium, calcium, zinc, manganese, moybdenum, chromium and vanadium.
Buffered C
A diet rich in vitamin C significantly reduces the risk of death from heart disease and stroke's. Among the various forms of Vitamin C, Buffered C indicates an efficacy superior to plan C and Ester C. Buffered C from Pure Essential provides an essential balance of nutrients, including vitamin C.
Linus Pauling, the two-time Nobel laureate, said he believed that a combination of Vitamin C (found in all of our multi-nutrient formulas) and L-Lysine will prevent cardiovascular disease by stopping a kind of LDL called lipoprotein (a). It is this substance that is damaging the artery and Pauling said he believed that the death rate of a cardiovascular accidents, would be significantly diminished if individuals take these substances.
Control Homocysteine Levels
A major factor according to current research involves levels of homocysteine, which is a breakdown product of the amino acid methionine. Homocysteine builds up in the blood and damages the arteries. It is currently considered to be a far more serious risk factor than high cholesterol. High Homocysteine levels suggest a 300% higher risk to die of a cardiovascular accident than individuals with low levels. Homocysteine oxidizes cholesterol which generates oxysterols which attack the blood vessels and cause damage. Controlling levels of Homocysteine is critical, yet is relatively easy. It is a result of nutrient deficiencies, specifically Vitamin B-6, Folic Acid and Vitamin B12. Pure Essential 2 contains potent nutritional detoxifiers that reduce homocysteine levels. Pure Essential 2 contains 17 antioxidants, including mixed, natural vitamin E., which disarm free radicals (i.e., reactive molecules that can damage the heart cells). It also contains niacin and niacinacinide, B vitamins can help reduce Homocysteine levels, Tocotrienols can reduce blood fat levels is well.
Chromium picolonate and vanadium ascorbate
Chromium picolonate and vanadium ascorbate are trace minerals that promote balanced blood sugar levels. New research strongly links excess insulin (stimulated by elevated blood sugar) as a separate risk factor in cardiovascular disease. Pure Essential 2 is a good source for this important nutrient.
