Blood Pressurex™:

High blood pressure is a problem for millions of Americans. Left untreated, high blood pressure can increase the chances of heart attack, blood vessel diseases, stroke, kidney disease and other complications.

There are many causes of high blood pressure, including but not limited to: stress, hardening of the arteries, obesity, fluid retention and hormonal imbalances. While no single formula can address all of the potential causes of elevated blood pressure, Blood Pressurex addresses many of these underlying causes and holds promise for helping to control this serious problem without the use of dangerous drug medications (which often have serious side effects).

Blood Pressurex is an excellent blend of essential and natural ingredients that can help your body maintain proper blood pressure levels. The main ingredients of this formula are the powerful herbs Coleus forskohlii, olive leaf extract, hawthorn extract and golden rod; the amino acid arginine; and the potent antioxidants vitamin E and grape seed extract. These herbs and nutrient work synergistically to provide a bevy of benefits, including inhibiting cell damage (potent antioxidant properties), supporting and strengthening blood vessels, relaxing blood vessels to encourage optimal blood flow, promoting blood flow in the peripheral arteries and helping to maintain normal blood viscosity.

Here is a more complete breakdown of the herbs and nutrients in this formula.

Coleus forskohlii: Often grown as an ornamental plant in the US, this native of India is used in Ayurvedic medicine as a heart and circulation tonic. It has been used to treat congestive heart failure, poor coronary blood flow and to improve blood flow and to improve blood flow to the brain.

In the 1970s this member of the mint family was found to contain a substance called forskolin. Tests showed this constituent lowered blood pressure, relaxed smoth muscles, dilated vlood vessles to lower blood pressure and acted as a tonic to the heart. It also increased hormone production to the thyroid. Antispasmodic for respiratory system, too.

Olive Leaf: In clinical trials, olive leaf has been shown to reduce blood pressure. It dilates the bolld vessels so that blood may flow more easily throughout the system. Possessing a mild diuretic action, it also contains antioxidants that help to protect blood vessels from damage. Extracts from olive leaf have been used to protect the heart from coronary occlusion. It may also help to reduce cholesterol levels and reverse arteriosclerosis when taken over an extended period of time.

Hawthorn: This popular cardiotonic herb helps to strengthen the heart muscle, improve blood circulation to the heart, dilate peripherial blood vessels to ease blood flow through the body and helps reduce blood pressure. Used to treat angina, coronary heart disease, irregular heart-beat and mild congestive heart failure, this herb is a slow-acting tonic with a gradual cumulative effect.

Goldenrod: Long considered a valuable remedy for urinary tract disorders, goldenrod helps improve blood flow through the kidneys, thereby increasing filtration. It helps to balance the mineral composition of the blood and contains antioxidants. It has a healing effect on damaged or bruised blood vessels.

Arginine: This amino acid is essential for the formation of nitric acid, one of the most basic of our neurotransmitters. Nitric acid relaxes blood vessels to promote blood flow and reduce blood pressure.

Vitamin E: A popular antioxidant, vitamin E helps prevent platelet aggregation in the blood stream, reducing the "stickiness" of the blood to help prevent the blood clots that can cause heart attack and stroke. It also helps reduce cholesterol.

Grape seed extract: This antioxidant helps support blood vessels and heal bruising. Damage to the blood vessels from free radicals is believed to contribute to the formation of arterial plaque.

Many supplements for hypertension target only one or two underlying causes. Blood Pressurex targets many underlying causes to provide maximum support and efficient control. This is important because the underlying causes must be properly addressed. Note: Consult your health care provider before using this product if you are currently taking prescription medication(s) for high blood pressure or if your blood pressure is above normal (diastolic reading above 90). Do not discontinue use of your prescription medication(s) without your doctor’s approval.

Recommended Usage: To help reduce cholesterol, improve cardiac tone and lower blood pressure, take 1 capsule with a meal three times daily. This formula has a cummulative effect, so take it at least three to six months for best results.
