Cardiovascular Danger
While cardiovascular disease is the number one killer in North America, not
all countries struggle to the same extent with heart problems. Cardana Caps
contains a mixture of Ayurvedic herbs found in diets that promote a healthy
heart, and that are associated with fewer cardiovascular disorders.
Ayurvedic Heart Helpers
Terminalia arjuna is an extract that has been well studied for its
heart benefits. It decreases blood pressure and heart rate, and enhances the
force of heart contractions. Coleus forskolii also lowers blood
pressure,
and relaxes the muscles of arteries. Crataegus laevigata (Hawthorn),
helps dilate blood vessels and dissolve deposits in the arteries.
Withania somnifera, or ashwagandha, is a potent adaptogen. Besides its
beneficial heart protective effects, it helps to lower stress, which is an
important contributor to heart disease. Boerhaavia diffusa is another
Ayurvedic extract with cardiovascular actions.
An Alternative Path to Heart Health
The ingredients in Cardana Caps work together for optimal heart health. This
formula provides a safe and effective way to deal with the threat of heart
disease.
North America has one of the highest rates of heart disease in the world.
Since the 1940s, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the leading cause of
mortality and morbidity in the region. It is estimated that over 56 million
Americans have some form of CVD. Although CVD is increasingly common as
people age, it is not an inevitable consequence of the aging process.
Atherosclerosis and other forms of CVD are almost non-existent in some
countries, even in elderly citizens. However, when these people migrate to
the US and consume the western diet and adopt a sedentary life style, their
risk increases to match their US counterparts.
In addition, as developing countries gain affluence and convert from
grain-based to high-fat, processed-food diets, the incidence of CVD
escalates. Since an entire population cannot change dietary habits, it has
become imperative for the population to have remedies to counter this
disease. In most instances, prescriptive drugs have considerable
side-effects. Note that cholesterol "statin" drugs create a deficiency of
Co-enzyme Q10, a nutrient essential for heart health. Ayurved Formulas
offer a series of products to address these problems and bring together some
of nature's most potent herbs, which have been scientifically studied and
formulated.
1.) Terminalia arjuna bark. This Ayurved herb has been conclusively
proven to have cardiovascular activity. Studies have shown that extracts of
Terminalia arjuna produce sustained hypotension and slowed heart rate.They
have also been shown to increase the force of contraction of the heart.
2.) Coleus forskohlii. Detailed pharmacologic studies established
that forskohlin lowered significantly high blood pressure in different
animal species, as well as man. In addition, it positively alters the force
of heart muscle contraction. The anti-hypertensive effects of forskohlin
were attributed to the relaxation of the smooth muscle in arteries.
3.) Crataegus laevigata (Hawthorn). The fruits from this plant
benefit the heart and act as coronary vasodilators. Hawthorn is reputed to
dissolve deposits in thickened and sclerotic arteries. Various clinical
studies have shown increased cardiac performance and output, decreased
peripheral resistance, decreased pulmonary arterial and capillary pressures,
reduced blood pressure at rest and during exercise, and improved metabolic
parameters.
4.) Withania somnifera. Also known as ashwagandha, it has been
described as the most important medicinal plant in India. This herb has been
the focus of hundreds of clinical studies and is one of the most
exhaustively researched herbs. The anti-stress activity of the roots has
been reported in multiple clinical studies. Ashwagandha has been used as a
treatment for the most debilitating diseases and is included for its
cardioprotective activity. In addition, Type A personalities or people in
consistent high stress conditions are more prone to high blood pressure,
which is an independent risk factor for heart disease, making ashwagandha an
important inclusion in this blood pressure-reducing formula.
5.) Boerhaavia diffusa. The cardiovascular action of this herb has
been clinically studied. The rationale for its
inclusion is due to its powerful diuretic activity. |

Cardana Caps from AOR are great for Blood Pressure Control!

Recommends it to Friends:
Yes
Cardana Caps from AOR was recommneded to me by a naturopath for its cardiovascular anti-inflammtory action and to reduce my blood pressure. Over about a month, my systolic blood pressure did fall about 5-10 mm Hg which was a very positive step since systolic hypertension is the most significant blood pressure risk factor if 50+ years old. I have only used the lowest dosage so far, and have had no side effects. Do note: the capsules do have an unusual grassy smell to them.
