Greetings!

Did you know that over 459,000 Americans die of coronary heart disease every year? Did you also know that many of these deaths could have been prevented by following your doctors suggestions and by making good nutritional and supplement choices?

You have shown, either by signing up for our heart health newsletter or by purchasing heart healthy supplements, that you believe in taking a proactive care of your heart. I hope this e-newsletter gives you some good advice and smart supplement suggestions.

Just When You Thought You Understood Heart Disease, There's a New LDL In Town!

Great, just great. We all know that LDL is the "bad cholesterol" but now there is a "new" LDL! It's called LDL Pattern B. It's a little smaller that the LDL pattern A we have learned to hate and continuously try to reduce.
Scientists now believe that the smaller LDL Pattern B particles are more dangerous than the LDL Pattern A because they can more easily squeeze through the tiny gaps between the cells in the endothelium to reach inside the artery walls. Individuals with high levels LDL Pattern B may also have lower HDL cholesterol levels, elevated triglyceride levels, and the tendency to develop high blood sugar levels and type II diabetes mellitus.
So, during your next cardiologist visit, be sure to ask your doctor about LDL Pattern B.

If You Eat a Fatty Meal, DON'T Forget Your Vegetables or Your Juice Plus Capsules!

The University of Maryland Medical Center completed a study which showed that daily consumption of Juice Plus+ Orchard, Garden and Vineyard Blends for as little as 3 weeks showed significant reduction in artery constriction.
The study was published in the American College of Cardiology and showed that individuals who consumed a high fat meal had a significant reduction in artery constriction when they took the Juice Plus Garden, Orchard and Vineyard Blends. That is a HUGE benefit and has made Juice Plus+ capsules an absolute must for all my customers.
I highly recommend all my customers, especially those with heart concerns, to take Juice Plus+ as the foundation of their supplement program.

Aspirin, to chew or not to chew?

If you should find yourself in the unfortunate position of having a heart attack, the first thing you should do is call 911, then head to the medicine cabinet and CHEW, that's right, chew, not swallow an aspirin tablet.

According to the Harvard Medical School Family Health Guide, chewing a 325 mg dose of aspirin significantly reduces blood clotting within 5 minutes. But swallowing an aspirin took 12 minutes to reduce clotting!

Let's go through that again...

Chewing aspirin reduced clotting in 5 minutes.
Swallowing an aspirin reduced clotting in 12 minutes.

That extra 7 minutes can mean the difference between life and death. Chewing an aspirin is key to reducing further heart damage because it will reduce clotting time.

Oh great! Extreme low fat/high carbohydrate diet can actually increase the risk of heart disease

According to Dr. Ronald Krauss, head of the Department of Molecular Medicine in Berkeley Labs Life Sciences Division, genetically susceptible individuals who follow an extreme low-fat/high-carbohydrate diet may actually be at higher risk for heart disease.

There are many supplements available which can help you maintain a healthy heart. I consider Juice Plus+ to be a foundation product for individuals who suffer from heart disease. Muscle Dynamics, a powder taken at night time, is also a must as it can help with blood pressure, improved sleep, not to mention weight control , mood and sexual function.
