Many of the validated benefits of the Mediterranean diet derive from heart-healthy compounds contained in the olive fruit, including the polyphenols tyrosol and hydroxytyrosol.1-4 When it comes to olive’s power to support blood pressure already within a healthy range, research shows the bioactive compound oleuropein5-8 is primarily responsible. The problem is that optimal amounts of… Continue Reading
The mitochondria are the cells’ energy powerhouses, and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is an essential component of healthy mitochondrial function.23 CoQ10 is required to convert the energy from fats and sugars into usable cellular energy. Yet, the body’s production of CoQ10 declines significantly with advancing age.24 With an ample amount of CoQ10, the mitochondria can work… Continue Reading
PEAK ATP® with GlycoCarn® provides two critical nutrients for optimal endothelial function and structural integrity. GlycoCarn®, a patented form of propionyl-L-carnitine, improves endothelial function by facilitating the transport of fatty acids into the mitochondria where they are burned as energy. It also augments endothelial nitric oxide synthesis, enhancing blood flow to active tissues (e.g., skeletal… Continue Reading
