Cardiovascular health relates to the health of the heart, blood vessels and circulation. It also relates to the health of the organs that are dependent on a strong blood supply. As the incidence of chronic health conditions is rapidly rising, maintenance of cardiovascular health and prevention of cardiovascular disease is of high importance. The major, preventable risk factors for cardiovascular disease are: smoking, high blood pressure, high blood cholesterol, insufficient physical activity, overweight and obesity and poor nutrition. 

 

A good diet together with regular exercise can help to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Herbs such as Hawthorn and Olive Leaf help are used for the health and wellbeing of your cardiovascular system and help maintain healthy blood pressure and encourage normal circulation. CoEnzyme Q10 is an antioxidant that is essential for heart function.

 

Microcirculation refers to the small vessels known as capillaries in the vasculature and is responsible for providing vital energy through distribution of blood throughout the tissues, and to and from the organs. As we age, our tiny capillaries can become narrower or twisted impinging on the movement of blood cells through the vessel. As every living cell in your body relies on effective microcirculation for nourishment it is important to keep your blood vessels in top condition through a healthy diet and lifestyle.
