Nutritional
Support for Optimum Cardiovascular Health
Formulated to
provide Optimum Cardiovascular Health naturally, this spray was designed to
make available in a superior delivery system the specific nutrients
clinically proven to avoid and even reverse the ravages of Heart Disease and
Stroke.
The danger is
elevated Homocysteine levels. If your homocysteine level is too high, you
may not have enough B vitamins to help this process take place. Or you may
not have enough of the chemicals (enzymes) your body uses to process
homocysteine.
What
is homocysteine?
Homocysteine
(ho-mo-sist-een) is an amino acid (a building block of protein) that is
produced in the human body. Homocysteine is toxic in nature.
Various studies indicate that this homocysteine toxicity, in concurrence
with genetic and dietary factors, accounts for the elevated risks of
coronary heart disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease.
Elevated
homocysteine, is linked to the deterioration of the inner linings of
arteries and veins. It is thought that this irritation in the circulatory
system hampers the expansion and dilation of blood vessels located
throughout the body, causing the initiation of cardiovascular disease.
Cardiovascular disease remains an epidemic, claiming the responsibility for
an estimated 44% of all deaths in the United States.
Cardiovascular disease manifests itself in many different forms. The
arteries become diseased, resulting in the thickening of arterial walls
(arteriosclerosis). Proliferation of cells lining the artery with proteins
and lipids leads to the development plaque. If not recognized or treated,
plaques may gather cholesterol and fat. This can lead to blockages in the
flow of blood to critical organs, which often results in impotency, stroke,
heart attack, and possibly, the rupturing of specific arteries or veins.
High
homocysteine levels in the blood can cause cholesterol to change to
something called oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which damages the
arteries. In addition, high homocysteine levels may make blood clot more
easily than it should. This can increase the risk of blood vessel blockages.
A blockage might cause you to have a stroke. According to various studies,
some 40% of stroke victims exhibit signs of homocysteine toxicity.
Recent
scientific findings indicate that there is no perceivable safe and
normal range for blood serum levels of homocysteine.
What
causes a high homocysteine level?
Homocysteine
is normally changed into other amino acids for use by the body. If your
homocysteine level is too high, you may not have enough B vitamins to help
this process take place. Or you may not have enough of the chemicals
(enzymes) your body uses to process homocysteine.
Most people
with a high homocysteine level don't get enough folate (also called folic
acid), vitamin B6 or vitamin B12 in their diet.
Supplementing these vitamins helps return the homocysteine level to normal.
A promising 14
year follow-up study included over 80,000 women and chronicled the number of
nonfatal and fatal cases of coronary heart disease. The results showed Women
supplementing with increased levels of both B9 and B6 reduced the risk of
heart disease by nearly 46%.
How
can I lower a high homocysteine level?
Eating more
fruits and vegetables (especially leafy green vegetables) can help lower
your homocysteine level by increasing how much folate you get in your diet.
The consensus by many researches is that eating right, supplementing the
diet, and exercising are the best methods for protecting one's self
against the affects of homocysteine toxicity.
