Glyconutrients are immunomodulating, they have a powerful effect on the immune system and are able to destroy viruses and bacteria that effect cardiovascular health.

There are several risk factors relating to cardiovascular heart disease:

• Smoking
• High blood pressure
• High homeocysteine levels have toxic effects on the vascular system and are strongly associated to artheriosclerosis.
• Poor diet, fatty foods and obesity.
• High cholesterol levels.
• Excessive alcohol
• High insulin levels elevate triglyceride levels which is associated with risk of heart disease
• Too little antioxidants. Antioxidants help to remove toxins causing cellular damage.
• Helicobacter pylori bacteria and ulcers are found in many heart disease sufferers.
  
• Type A personalities.
• High stress levels.

Successful factors that can prevent and diminish risk of CVD:

• Glyconutrient rich diet
• Weight management.

Glyconutrients can play an important role in the management of the above factors but there is no doubt that they cannot do it alone. An entire lifestyle change is essential. Improving your diet and exercising regularly will make a considerable difference in supporting the cardiovascular system. Of vital importance in relation to diet is keeping bad cholesterol levels down. Glyconutrients containing aloe and the mushrooms particularly cordyceps have shown to reduce bad cholesterol levels considerably.

Glyconutrients generate activity of the antioxidant glutathione. Glutathione is produced in the liver where it does the important task of detoxifying harmful compounds excreted through the bile. It is also found in the intestines for carbohydrate metabolism and breakdown of oxidized fats that may contribute to artheriosclerosis.
Glyconutrients stimulate production of a metabolic enzyme SOD (superoxide dismutase) a really good antioxidant that destroys free radicals.

Other suggestions for heart health:

• Increase your fiber intake.
• Increase essential fatty acids.
• Eat more fruit and vegetables. If quality organic veggies are not available, supplement your diet with commercially available glyconutrients.
