BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
The ventricles of the heart requires specific nutrients to maintain overall health. These important nutrients are included in Cardio-Essentials™: Coenzyme Q10, L-carnitine, and L-taurine. In a clinical study, the combination of L-carnitine, L-taurine, and Coenzyme Q10 was shown to reduce the size of the left ventricle, which is important to maintain heart health. These ingredients are known to be important in providing adequate energy for heart muscle. Cardio-Essentials™ provides adequate amounts of these ingredients, i.e. 100 mg of CoQ10. Hawthorn extract is tradi- tionally used in supporting the heart function.
