  • Chapter 33: Vitamins, Minerals, Antioxidants, and Essential Fatty Acids: The Real Way to Reduce the Risk of Death from Heart Disease and Stroke – Part 2

Chapter Excerpts

Studies using levels of vitamin C, well above 700 mg per day have shown a decreased risk of diseases, including the risk of heart disease.

Ladd McNamara, M.D.

Bioflavanoids such as grape seed extract, resveratrol, & quercetin all have shown remarkable results in reducing the risk of heart disease and cancers. They work synergistically, as well as with other antioxidants to reduce the risk of disease.

L-carnosine may slow down the aging process, and protects the brain, skin, and arteries from damage. Furthermore, L-carnosine helps the heart to contract more effectively through enhancing the use of calcium.
