Your Heart, Vitamin C and Co-Enzyme Q10!!!!!

Today, most doctors insist that cholesterol is the cause of heart disease, but few ever realize that vitamin C deficiency plays a major role in heart attack and stroke. And, vitamin C therapy can reverse years of accumulated damage to help you:

-Avoid heart disease
-Break-open clogged arteries
-Repair life-long damage to arteries and blood vessels
-Drastically reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke

Vitamin C - You know it's good for you. But did you know that vitamin C could safely and effectively clear your arteries of dangerous plaque that leads to heart attack and stroke?
In a research study, it was found that 300mg of vitamin C a day reduced risk of heart disease by 50 percent in men and 40 percent in women. The test also revealed that a higher intake of vitamin C boosted life expectancy by 6 years. People taking 1,500mg of vitamin C a day for 12 months, reversed plaque while those who didn't take vitamin C had worsening plaque.

So how does vitamin C protect you from heart disease and stroke?

Vitamin C increases the production of collagen, elastin and other "reinforcement molecules" which support your blood vessels in the same way that iron rods support tall buildings. More collagen means more stability for your arteries, veins and capillaries.

When you lack vitamin C, cracks and lesions form in the walls of your blood vessels. When blood vessels break down, arterial plaques fortify the weakness and "repair" the damage.

But when these arterial plaques become too thick, they block the flow of blood. A lack of blood to the heart triggers a heart attack - and a lack of blood to the brain causes a stroke.

Vitamin C is essential for the prevention of dangerous plaque buildup.

Co-Enzyme Q10 for preventing Congestive Heart Failure

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a deadly form of heart disease. It means your heart can't pump enough blood for your body's needs. This leads to fluid congestion that can cause your vital organs like your lungs, brain and kidneys to shut down. In fact, 20% of people diagnosed with congestive heart failure die within one year. Half die within five years. But what you probably don't know is that there's a simple nutrient that may provide a cure for congestive heart failure.

The latest research shows the new form of Co-Enzyme Q10 (CoQ10) can reverse congestive heart failure all on its own. Taking this simple, overlooked nutrient might make this deadly form of heart disease a thing of the past.

It's unfortunate, but CoQ10 remains underused by most doctors. And the new form, which is 8 times stronger, is almost unknown. Despite volumes of overwhelmingly powerful research, it isn't recommended as a routine treatment of CHF. Instead, doctors often prescribe beta blockers, diuretics, vasodilators, ACE inhibitors, and even statins. Ironically, statins strip the body of CoQ10. That means the very drug doctors use to treat CHF is most likely contributing to the patient's death.

Low CoQ10 levels have been shown to be an independent predictor of mortality in CHF patients. In other words, the lower your CoQ10 levels, the higher your risk of dying. If you have congestive heart failure, you'll have to take much higher doses of ubiquinol form of CoQ10 - in the 450 mg to 900 mg range - to get the therapeutic benefits.

Even if you don't have this heart condition, CoQ10 is the best form of prevention. Take 50 mg of the ubiquinol daily. It's the most absorbable form of CoQ10.
