Description

CardioActive Hawthorn for strengthening and nourishing the heart Every year, about half a million people die from cardiovascular diseases in Russia - more than from alcohol, accidents and cancer combined! And if it was once believed that you could worry about heart health only after 50, today more and more people are clutching their hearts already at 40 and even at 35 years old! The rhythm of modern life dictates its own rules and does not allow you to relax for a minute. You need to be on time everywhere and achieve a lot. Do you have time to eat right, rest and get enough sleep? And how does it feel when your heart is working at its peak? To avoid being included in the growing “heart” statistics, help your heart work correctly. Take CardioActiv! It contains a high dosage of hawthorn flower and fruit extract, which increases blood circulation in the vessels of the heart and has a beneficial effect on heart rhythm. In CardioActive, for the first time1, the effect of hawthorn is enhanced by “heart vitamins” – potassium and magnesium. They nourish and strengthen the heart, making it stronger and more resilient. Hawthorn (flowers, leaves), thanks to the combined action of biologically active substances such as hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonoids, glycosides, tannins, saponins and some others, helps strengthen and nourish the heart. In addition, the interaction of all the substances contained in hawthorn supports the rhythm of the heart. Potassium and magnesium are microelements necessary for the normal life of all cells of the human body. They are also important in the functioning of the cardiovascular system. Throughout life, situations constantly arise associated with a lack or increased loss of potassium and magnesium or with an increased need for these elements: intense exercise, stress, and others. With a lack of potassium and magnesium, the natural functioning of the heart muscle is disrupted; it is difficult for it to receive oxygen and those nutrients that are delivered with the blood. Therefore, it is necessary to compensate for the deficiency of potassium and magnesium in the body. The foods we eat contain small amounts of these microelements. Therefore, in addition to eating foods containing potassium and magnesium, additional intake of potassium and magnesium supplements is required to nourish and strengthen the heart.

• dry extract of hawthorn flowers and fruits;
• macroelements (potassium and magnesium);
• Excipients.

Mechanism of action

The active components of the herbal medicine affect the cardiovascular system with the following effects:

• normalization of heart rate;
• cardiotonic effect (increase the contractility of the myocardium, while simultaneously reducing its excitability);
• improvement of coronary and cerebral circulation, due to which ischemic disorders are eliminated;
• reducing the level of low-density lipoproteins (LDL, the so-called “bad” cholesterol);
• normalization of electrolyte balance, which is necessary for high-quality heart function;
• antioxidant effect;
• increases sensitivity to the action of glycosides;
• general tonic effect – improves immunity, general resistance of the body, reduces fatigue;
• normalizes the blood coagulation system, prevents the development of thromboembolic complications.

Special attention is paid to the sedative properties of hawthorn. In combination with other herbal remedies (lemon balm, mint, motherwort) it is used in the treatment of depression and panic attacks. A significant difference from other drugs is the absence of a hypnotic effect.

Thanks to such an impressive list of pharmacological effects, this herbal medicine is widely used in the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
