Natureville’s Heart Care Support combines Omega-3s derived from the purest fish oil with research-proven heart nutrients including coenzyme Q10, L-carnitine, magnesium, selenium, folic acid and natural source Vitamin E to support heart health.* Nutritional science shows these nutrients are most effective when taken combined.*

Leading studies have established the vital importance and healthy benefits of Omega-3 fatty acids. The American Heart Association recommends EPA and DHA to individuals with heart disease.¹ According to the FDA, “Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fats my reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

The healthy benefits of Omega-3’s, DHA and EPA from fish oil:

    •   Helps regulate heart beats^2-3
    •   Decreases the growth rate of plaques that clog arteries⁴
    •   Reduces the risk of a heart attack⁵
    •   Lowers blood pressure⁶
    •   Decreases triglyceride levels⁷

L- carnitine and coenzyme Q10 both provide energy for the heart.* L-carnitine transports fatty acids into the mitochondria cells, where they are burned as fuel. It is well-documented to support increased blood flow to the heart.⁸ CoQ10 is needed to transport food into energy.* Both CoQ10 and L-carnitine help to produce energy for the heart.* These nutrients appear to regulate heart beat.* The heart, with greater energy requirement than other organs, contains higher amounts of CoQ10 than other tissue in the body. Levels of CoQ10 decline with age, which may lead to less efficient functioning of the heart and organs. An analysis of eight different studies concluded that CoQ10 enhances the heart’s blood pumping ability.⁹

Statins reduce the natural production of CoQ10. Statin induced CoQ10 deficiency is preventable with supplementation of CoQ10.*

Natureville’s Heart Care Support contains supremely high-quality Coenzyme Q10 by Kaneka Q10^TM. Fermented from yeast, KanekaQ10^TM is bio-identical to CoQ10 produced within the body and thus does not contain the impurities that synthetically processed CoQ10 does. Kaneka Q10^TM has been used in vast majority of all clinical trials in the last 30 years. It is the purest and most thoroughly researched CoQ10 ingredient available today.
