Vitabiotics Cardioace Plus

Product description

Cardioace Plus combines a multivitamin formula of the original Cardioace with 1.3g of plant sterols. It is designed to be the most comprehensive, research-based nutritional supplement for a healthy heart.

 Cardioace Plus contains a natural compound called reservatrol, a phytochemical found in red grape skins which may be partly responsible for the health benefit attributed to red wine. Reservatrol is thought to be a powerful antioxidant that may help support vascular health. Co Q10 is also important for energy production within the cells and may play a role in heart health.

Omega-3 fish oils included in Cardioace Plus

The Cardioace formulation includes omega-3 fish oil, a rich source of EPA (Eicosapentaenoic Acid) and DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid). Humans probably evolved on a diet with a ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids of approximately 1 to 1, but today we consume many more omega-6 fatty acids than omega-3s - between 10 to 25 times more! Omega-3 fatty acids may play an important role in maintaining normal blood pressure, cholesterol and trigylceride levels. The EPA in omega-3 fish oil is also thought to be a direct source of an important substance influencing platelet adhesion which may mean it helps support the flow of blood through our vessels.

Cardioace Plus formulation includes Lycopene, Alpha lipoic acid and other powerful antioxidants.

Lycopene is a powerful antioxidant and may be beneficial for heart health by defending the body against free radicals, which cause oxidation. Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL), commonly known as 'bad cholesterol', is the main supplier of cholesterol to tissues. High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) scavenges for free cholesterol in the tissues and transports it back to the liver, so it is known as 'good cholesterol'. Oxidation of HDL interferes with its role in cholesterol transport. Antioxidants like lycopene, alpha Lipoic acid, reservatrol, selenium, vitamins E and C also in Cardioace Plus help to defend against free radicals, which can oxidise LDL and HDL, and may therefore be beneficial for heart health.

Garlic

Garlic may help balance 'good' (high-density lipoprotein-HDL) through its role in helping to regulate cholesterol production by the liver. Garlic may also help to maintain normal blood pressure and help maintain arterial health.

Homocysteine and heart health

Vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid work in synergy to help maintain healthy levels of a blood amino acid called homocysteine. Analysis has revealed that high levels of homocysteine are a strong independent factor in heart health, accounting for as much as 10% of the combined influence of all known factors in heart health.
