Why These Natural Ingredients?
Berberine Sulfate
Berberine is a bright yellow alkaloid found in several medicinal
plants. It has been shown to have numerous effects which benefit the
heart such as enhanced coronary blood flow and oxygenation, decreased
vasoconstriction, lowered blood pressure and strengthened heart contractility.
Other studies have shown improved quality of life with decreased complications,
rehospitalizations and mortality. The long and safe use of berberine
sulfate makes it a perfect addition to this blend.
Hawthorne Extract
Hawthorne, called Crataegus by the herbalists that have used
it for centuries, is considered to be a vital cardiotonic, effectively
strengthening the contractile force of the heart while increasing blood
flow and reducing blood pressure. Our Hawthorne extract is standardized
for vitexin rhamnoside.
Taurine, L-Carnitine
Taurine is known for helping
balance calcium and potassium in muscle cells, and is an important
factor in helping the heart muscle pump stronger. Several studies
indicate taurine is a safe, effective therapeutic tool in the management
of various types of cardiovascular conditions due to its positive
inotropic effects. Human studies with L-carnitine supplementation have
yielded significant clinical results in a variety of cardiovascular
related trials. As secondary amino acids, both help support the energy
of cardiac muscle tissue and help balance calcium and potassium— vital
for efficient heart function.
Quercetin
Quercetin, a bioflavonoid with
numerous beneficial properties has been shown to have remarkable effects
in both induced and spontaneous animal models of hypertension. These
benefits seem to be related to quercetin’s antioxidant properties which
result in endothelial and end-organ protection.
