Vitamin C and Heart Health

Our circulatory system consisting of the heart and blood vessels is the very reason that we are alive. One of the reasons that we watch our cholesterol number and diet is to help slow down the deposits on the artery wall that form over time blocking the arteries, and restricting blood flow. Although maintaining a healthy cholesterol level is important, vitamins are equally important to heart health. It would be a smart approach to do good things for our arteries before this damage occurs, and put the same amount of focus on prevention as we do with treatment.

Vitamin C can help to maintain arteries that are already normal. For example, arteries consist of collagen, and Vitamin C encourages collagen, a material that is important to the structure of the arteries. Vitamin C is also an antioxidant that helps maintain the health of the arteries by minimizing the oxidation of the cholesterol. Vitamin C is found in Res-Q CellPower, and Res-Q Multi. Res-Q CellPower is an antioxidant supplement that encourages healthy arteries. Res-Q Multi is a heart-healthy multivitamin supplement. Supplementing a healthy diet helps ensure that nutrient intake is met on a day to day basis.
