Healie Cardio Guard

HEALIE CARDIO GUARD offers a nutritional approach to protect the cardiovascular system from five major risk factors at the same time.

Citrus Juice Extract is obtained by extracting the main flavonoids contained in orange juice.

• Supports healthy cardiovascular function.
• Supports cholesterol levels.
• They provide antioxidant protection.
• Promote metabolic wellness.
• Clinical trial.

The product is composed of an extract of the juice of the fruits of the bergamot lemon tree and an extract obtained from the bark of the maritime pine. Bergamot juice extract contains major flavonoids such as naringin, neoeriocitrin and neohesperidin. Flavonoids are metabolic products in plants.

A clinical trial on men and women who took 150 mg of this extract once a day for 6 months showed that bergamot juice extract helps maintain healthy LDL cholesterol levels. This extract prevents the oxidation of LDL cholesterol through the antioxidant properties of flavonoids.

Maritime pine extract is produced by infusing bark from precisely selected trees, the extract is then frozen and ground into a powder form. It contains very important substances such as procyanidins, catechins and phenolic acids.

It improves the function of the endothelium

The common denominator of most cardiovascular risk factors is the inability of blood vessels to generate the most important vascular mediator: nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide is synthesized by (endothelial) cells that line the inner wall of blood vessels. NO molecules diffuse across the blood vessel wall to eventually interact with a specific receptor in the smooth muscle surrounding the vessel. This causes the muscle to relax and consequently the lumen of the vessel increases. This self-regulating mechanism makes it possible to alleviate the insufficient blood supply to the tissue and increase the pressure in the blood vessels.

Nitric oxide also acts on blood platelets to reduce their tendency to form aggregates, which is manifested by protection against the formation of thrombosis.

In various clinical situations, such as hypertension, atherosclerosis and diabetes, but also with increasing age, endothelial nitric oxide synthesis decreases. This results in chronic narrowing of the blood vessels, which impairs blood flow, increases blood pressure, and increases the risk of thrombosis.

• •ctivates the enzyme endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) present in endothelial cells to more efficiently generate nitric oxide (NO) from the precursor amino acid L-arginine.
• adjusts increased blood pressure. Improved endothelial function allows for healthier vasodilation, which helps normalize elevated blood pressure.
• • improves kidney function and CRP levels in hypertension.

Progressive kidney damage is common in hypertensive patients. In addition to lowering elevated blood pressure, measures to protect the kidneys are an important goal in the advanced treatment and management of hypertension.

• is safe for individuals with low blood pressure.
• normalizes the activity of blood platelets.

While hypertension, atherosclerosis, and patients contribute to progressive damage to blood vessel walls, the acute problems seen in heart attack and stroke are the result of platelet aggregation. Impaired endothelial function and reduced availability of nitric oxide lead to increased platelet activity. Situations that include impaired endothelial function, hypercoagulability, and altered hemodynamics, such as stasis, favor the development of platelet aggregates and thrombosis.
