Arterial Formulation Ingredients:

• L-Arginine

  In the body, the amino acid L-Arginine changes into nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide is a powerful neurotransmitter that helps blood vessels relax and improves circulation. Some evidence shows that L-Arginine may help improve blood flow in the arteries of the heart, which in turn may improve symptoms of clogged arteries, chest pain or angina and coronary artery disease. There are other potential health benefits with L-Arginine, such as possible reduction of blood pressure.
  L-Arginine is a naturally occurring amino acid that is found in foods such as chicken, turkey, pumpkin seeds, peanuts and soybeans as examples.

• L-Citrulline

  Your kidneys change L-citrulline into L-Arginine boosting the L-Arginine levels already contained in Arterial Formulation. Studies show that a combination of L-Arginine and L-Citrulline increases the longevity of Nitric Oxide in the Cardiovascular System which enhances benefit. Some studies indicate that L-Citrulline may also be helpful in improving intestinal problems.
  L-citrulline is a naturally occurring amino acid that is found in foods such as watermelons, walnuts, brown rice and spinach as examples.

• Vitamin C

  Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin, which is needed by the body to form collagen in bones, cartilage, muscle, and blood vessels. Vitamin C helps to protect cells and keep them healthy and impacts several areas of cardiovascular health, ranging from blood pressure to endothelial (the lining of the arteries) health and is an effective antioxidant. Recent studies indicate that Vitamin C taken in conjunction with L-Arginine increases the beneficial effects of Nitric Oxide production.
  Vitamin C is found in foods such as oranges, grapefruits, red peppers and broccoli as examples.

• Beetroot Extract

  Studies have shown that Beetroot acts as a moderator to blood pressure, due to the high levels of nitrate. Beetroot naturally contains Vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and Vitamin C, as well as Phosphorus, Sodium, Potassium, Iodine, Iron and Copper – and so has a great range of micro nutrients that enhance the benefits of Arterial Formulation.

• Grapeseed Extract

  Grapeseed Extract has huge antioxidant potential due to its flavonoid phytonutrients. These polyphenols, including resveratrol and OPC (unique oligomeric proanthocyanidins complexes), are found in their most potent form in Grapeseed Extract. OPC helps the body to produce glutathione, which is the master antioxidant that protects DNA and strengthens the immune system. OPC’s also increase intracellular Vitamin C levels and strengthen capillaries and thus improve blood oxygen circulation around the cardiovascular system and throughout the body making them a perfect addition to Arterial Formulation. These antioxidants can also act to protect soft tissue collagen in the joints and skin from free radical damage, and help prevent premature aging and protect the blood vessel walls from inflammatory stress.

• Resveratrol Extract

  Resveratrol could be considered one of the ‘stars of the show’ with its many health benefits. Ranging from its anti-aging properties to its positive effect on heart health. It has high levels of antioxidants helping to reduce oxidative stress on arteries and it blocks the production of N F Kappa B, a powerful noxious inflammatory agent. Resveratrol Extract also provides cellular support that improves mental function and even has claims of cancer suppression abilities attributed to it.

• Vitamin K2

  Vitamin K2 serves many functions in the body, but its most important function is that of blood clotting. Studies show that K2 may help in fighting against cancer and Alzheimer’s disease and can support the prevention of osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases. Vitamin K2 is optimal for the body to utilise calcium to build strong healthy bones thus helping to inhibit calcium deposits in the arteries.
  Vitamin K2 is found in foods such as egg yolk, butter salami and cheese as examples.

• Vitamin D3

  Vitamin D3 helps strengthen the immune system and aids cell to cell communication in the body. Cholecalciferol (D3) is important for the absorption of calcium from the stomach and for the functioning of calcium in the body. Cholecalciferol is used to treat or prevent many conditions caused by a lack of vitamin D, especially conditions of the skin or bones. A growing number of studies are implicating a deficiency in Vitamin D3 as a risk factor for heart attacks, congestive heart failure, peripheral arterial disease, strokes, and conditions associated with cardiovascular disease such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
  Vitamin D3 is found in foods such as salmon, liver, eggs and cheese as examples.

 Research into L-arginine and Nitrc Oxide

The research on the effects within the body from using L-Arginine for production of nitric oxide, and the importance of that process for the circulatory system, resulted in the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 1998 – being jointly awarded to Robert F, Furchgott, Louis J. Ignarro and Ferid Murad for their discoveries concerning Nitric Oxide as a signalling molecule in the Cardiovascular System.

NITRIC OXIDE (NO) is one of the simplest molecules in biology, comprised of just two atoms—one atom of nitrogen (N) and one of oxygen (O). Though NO’s structure is simple, nitric oxide is now regarded as the most significant molecule in the body, one that is crucial to a person’s well-being.

Nitric oxide is a powerful signalling molecule present in the cardiovascular and nervous systems as well as throughout the rest of the body, influencing the functioning of virtually every bodily organ, including the lungs, liver, kidneys, stomach, genitals, and, of course, the heart. Among the many vital duties NO performs is its role as a vasodilator, meaning that it helps control blood flow to every part of the body. NO relaxes and enlarges the blood vessels, ensuring that blood can efficiently nourish the heart, helping to support healthy blood pressure levels. NO also works to prevent the formation of blood clots, which can be a trigger for strokes and heart attacks, whilst slowing the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaque in the blood vessels along with supporting the immune system, combating toxins and providing a strong internal defence system. NO therefore plays a vital role in the health of your arteries, and thus your heart and therefore your quality of general health.

The manufacture of NO takes place mainly in the endothelium— which is the layer of cells lining the interior surface of the blood vessels. Heart disease, being overweight, lack of exercise, smoking, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and high levels of homocysteine all, amongst other issues, cause damage to the endothelium. And a damaged endothelium is clearly not conducive to the production of NO, which results in more damage and an increasingly dangerous downward spiral of declining health.

A damaged endothelium is not the only issue we need to address. Whilst L-Arginine is an amino acid that can produce NO in your system, unfortunately, the amounts that we consume from our food naturally are insufficient to make the difference in NO production that is required to stimulate health benefits. Supplementation is the best way to ensure a healthy endothelium resulting in NO production at its best.
