Description
Cardiovascular disease is a wide-encompassing term that refers to all conditions affecting the heart and associated blood vessels. These include the following: atherosclerosis, the hardening of arteries due to the buildup of plaque; congestive heart failure, the inability of the heart to effectively pump enough blood; arrhythmia, a disturbance in the rhythm of the heartbeat; mitral valve prolapse, loss of tone or slight deformity of the mitral valve in the heart and cardiomyopathy, which refers to disease of the heart muscle causing a reduction in the force of heart contraction.
Symptoms typically include shortness of breath (especially with exertion), fatigue, light headedness, dizziness, fainting, chest pain, an awareness of the heartbeat, sensation of fluttering or pounding in the chest and signs of reduced blood flow (blue extremities and swelling of the ankles).
Treatment involves improving energy metabolism in the heart as well as improving blood supply.
In the formula the B vitamins, magnesium, carnitine and coenzyme Q10 increase energy to the heart muscles, while beta carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, lysine, proline, grape seed extract and green tea extract help to restore integrity to the blood vessel walls and improve blood flow, Other ingredients play a synergistic role.

“I am 81 and have had an arrhythmic heartbeat for as long as I can remember. My daughter suggested I try Phytogenics Hawthorn Complex. After 4 weeks of using this product my arrhythmia has improved significantly and I am now able to go on walks again without being out of breath.” WP
