Heart Health (51)

Preferred Nutrition Medi-C Plus with Calcium Ascorbate Humans do not make Vitamin C like animals do; we need to supplement this essential vitamin to meet our daily needs. Inadequate amounts of Vitamin C means poor collagen. Vitamin C and Lysine work together to build collagen, which strengthens and holds together the coronary cells. Coronary arteries, closest to the heart, receive the greatest pressure. Without enough Vitamin C the collagen weakens. This sets the stage for heart attack or stroke. Healthy collagen also supports healthy teeth, gums, cartilage, bones, connective tissue and wound healing. The antioxidants in Medi-C Plus also support and help maintain good health. Benefits: Helps support/maintain cardiovascular health Helps reduce the recurrence of cold sores Helps maintain bones, teeth and gums Non-GMO, Gluten free Directions: Dissolve one 6.5 cc scoop (5g) in 250ml of water or juice. Ingredients: Each 6.5 cc Scoop Contains (Medicinal Ingredients): Vitamin C (calcium ascorbate, ascorbic acid) 2000mg Magnesium (Magnesium Ascorbate) ... 210mg L-Lysine (L-Lysine hydrochloride) 1300mg Non-medicinal Ingredients: Berry: Strawberry flavour, citric acid, berry flavour, Stevia rebaudiana leaf.

  Premium cardiovascular health formula Provides nutrients and plant extracts that promote vascular health Maintains healthy blood pressure Helps to reduce blood lipid levels A unique heart support formula exclusively from AOR Cardiovascular health is the sum of the health of many different body functions: blood lipids, blood pressure, vascular health, heart muscle health, and electrical function, to name a few. Ortho Heart is designed to promote cardiovascular health through multiple mechanisms. Garlic extract helps to balance blood lipids and cholesterol, while L-theanine promotes relaxation, stress relief and quality sleep – all of which can have a beneficial influence on blood pressure. Chlorogenic acid from green coffee bean extract supports weight management and has been shown to help lower blood pressure. Nitric oxide improves blood vessel function and blood flow by dilating blood vessels and improving their flexibility – potassium nitrate and vitamin C support the production of this important nutrient. Lastly, studies support the ability of hibiscus to promote healthy blood pressure. This is key since high blood pressure, also known as the silent killer, tends not to produce symptoms until it is severe. Those with a family history of blood pressure or cholesterol problems, or those looking to support their heart health and blood pressure naturally can benefit from taking Ortho Heart. NPN 80027999 Discussion Ortho Heart combines garlic, used in herbal medicine, with other ingredients that help reduce elevated blood lipid levels and maintain cardiovascular health. Ortho Heart also helps to temporarily promote relaxation. Guarantees AOR™ guarantees that all ingredients have been declared on the label.

Supports cardiovascular health Supports healthy blood pressure and cholesterol Improves exercise performance A traditionally used herb backed by clinical research Details Hawthorn (Crataegus laevigata) is a small thorny tree originally from northwestern Europe. For thousands of years, folk medicine has prescribed hawthorn for a variety of uses, from a sore throat to a troubled heart. Hawthorn is rich in flavonoids and other compounds which are responsible for its benefits to heart health. The components of hawthorn exert their heart-helping actions in a number of ways. Hawthorn increases the force of heart contractions and blood flow, while reducing the demand for oxygen. It reduces deposits in the arteries, lowers blood pressure, reduces irregular heartbeats, reduces resting pulse rate and lowers cholesterol levels. Clinical trials with hawthorn have confirmed its beneficial effects on the heart, and have found that it can relieve symptoms associated with heart failure. It also increases exercise performance. AOR Advantage AOR’s Hawthorn II is an extract rich in flavonoids that supports cardiovascular health in a research backed dose. Those looking for a single product to support overall cardiovascular health and function should consider hawthorn as a natural alternative.

    Healthy cholesterol levels Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels and assists enzymes in the breakdown and utilization of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Natural Factors Niacin delivers niacin in the form of inositol hexanicotinate, which minimizes the flushing effect and other side effects associated with other forms of niacin.   Uses & Benefits Helps promote "good" cholesterol while decreasing "bad" cholesterol levels Supports cardiovascular function Aids in the metabolism of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates Feature Summary Vitamin B3 is also known as niacin and is a member of the water-soluble B complex family of vitamins. A factor in good health, niacin has many uses within the body such as assistance with the breakdown and utilization of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It also plays an important role in supporting cardiovascular health. Niacin offers support for the cardiovascular system by having a positive effect on cholesterol levels by reducing LDL and triglycerides, while raising levels of HDL – the good cholesterol. Inositol by itself is also used therapeutically to reduce cholesterol. Natural Factors Niacin Inositol Hexanicotinate Flush Free delivers niacin in the form of inositol hexanicotinate, which minimizes the side effects associated with other forms of niacin in high doses, such as flushing of the skin and upset stomach. When ingested, inositol nicotinate hydrolyzes in the body to free niacin and inositol, allowing both to function in reducing cholesterol levels in the body. It acts as a slow-release supply of niacin; hence, the flushing effect is not a likely event when ingested. LABEL INFORMATIONMedicinal ingredients Each capsule contains:   Niacin (inositol hexanicotinate*) 500 mg Inositol (inositol hexanicotinate) 120 mg *Niacin delivered in the form of inositol hexanicotinate minimizes the side effects associated with other forms of niacin in high doses, such as flushing of the skin and upset stomach. Non-medicinal IngredientsMicrocrystalline cellulose, gelatin capsule (gelatin, purified water), vegetable grade magnesium stearate (lubricant). Recommended useA factor in the maintenance of good health. Helps the body to metabolize carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and helps to prevent niacin deficiency. Recommended doseRecommended adult dose: 1 capsule daily with a meal or as directed by a health care practitioner. CautionsDo not exceed the recommended dose except on the advice of a health care practitioner. Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding. Keep out of the reach of children.

An antioxidant for the maintenance of good health. Our Olive Leaf Extract, in liquid and in capsules, is 100% natural and simply amazing. Obtained from the leaves of the olive tree (Olea europaea), they contain oleuropein, which is the main active principal of the olive tree. The use of the extract of the tree dates to the early 1800s, when it was used as an effective treatment for malarial infections. According to the 1854 Pharmaceutical Journal of Provincial Transactions, the doctors stated that the properties of the olive tree deserved much more extensive investigation for its medicinal qualities. In the early 1900s, a bitter compound called “oleuropein” was identified in the leaves and other parts of the olive tree; this compound was determined to be part of the olive tree’s powerful disease-resistant structure. Since then, several animal and in vitro studies revealed its large anti-infectious properties: Bactericide with its elenolic acid, and viricide with its calcium eleonate. In 1962, an Italian researcher discovered that oleuropein can lower blood pressure in animals; other European research determined this compound to have strong antioxidant capabilities as well. Biochemists have determined that the extract has multiple natural iridoids, flavonoids, and esters, and that the synergy of these working together is the reason for the wide-spectrum effect. Some people experience what is known as Herxheimer’s reaction; this is a detoxification reaction, and not a counteraction to the product. If any of these symptoms should occur—greater fatigue, diarrhea, headaches, muscle/joint aches, or flu-like symptoms—temporarily discontinue taking Olive Leaf Extract or cut back on the amount taken until the body can eliminate the toxic waste. Most individuals experience no such effect. Olive Leaf Extract has been used clinically in its present form for years. Living up to its promising background, it has demonstrated considerable therapeutic action against many common and chronic conditions.
