Stroke

Stroke or brain attack is one of the most preventable of all life-threatening health problems. The two primary risk factors for stroke are those that are controllable and those that are not. It's important to remember that having one or more uncontrollable stroke risk factors DOES NOT MAKE A PERSON FATED TO HAVE A STROKE. With proper attention to controllable stroke risk factors, the impact of uncontrollable factors can be greatly reduced.

The most vital aspects of stroke prevention includes having a good nutrient rich healthy diet, plenty of physical activity, and watching your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Additionally, through research we know that specific nutrients are necessary in ensuring coronary health and in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.  Here are just a few examples.  A special form of garlic extract (AGE) effectively lowers cholesterol2 and thins the blood.3

Supplementation of vitamins C and E reduce lipid peroxidation (a condition leading to heart disease).4 Daily consumption of folic acid, vitamin B(12), and vitamin B(6) have been shown to lower total homocysteine concentrations (associated with cardiovascular disease).5 Vitamin B-3 (niacin) is known to help lower LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) and raise the HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol).6 Chromium also raises HDL levels.7

However, in order for these nutrients to provide the necessary benefits in our bodies, they need to come in the most bioavailable, whole food (see Vitamins), and amino acid chelated (see Minerals) form.  Vitamins should be taken straight from foods in their whole form, not in their partial form or made in a lab. For example, vitamin C taken in its synthetic form, Ascorbic Acid, has actually been shown to thicken arterial walls, contributing to heart disease.8

Additionally, minerals have been proven to be the most bioavailable and better absorbed by the body in the amino acid chelated form.  This form leaves no waste or toxins in the body, such as calcium citrate or carbonate, which can cause additional stress. Other supplements may claim to lower cholesterol and reduce heart disease because they contain these nutrients, but many are actually damaging to your health if they do not come in the proper form.

The Greatest Vitamin in the World only contains these nutrients in the forms proven to effectively reduce the risk for heart disease and lower cholesterol levels.  Additionally, the nutrients contained in this formula are the most bioavailable forms on the market, ensuring that your body is able to receive and use all of the nutrients you take in, ensuring that your risk for heart disease and your cholesterol levels are lowered.

The Greatest Vitamins in the World is excited to educate people about the critcal importance of health and the body. Do not allow yourself to be among the millions who will ignore the most important thing they have, their health.
