The importance of health supplements and healthy eating

We have all heard of seemingly healthy people who suddenly keel over and unexpectedly die of a burst blood vessel or a stroke ( a blood clog ). The latest loss to the world has been Yasmin Ahmad, at 51 years, of a stroke.

How is it that a healthy vibrant looking woman can be active one day and dead the next day? I had a friend at 50, with that profile, die not too long ago.

That set me on a time of personal research.

The health of our blood vessel is an area that many are ignorant of.

Arginine is an amino acid, a building-block of protein. It is used by the body to make nitric oxide, NO, which is responsible for relaxing blood vessels, improving blood flow, melting away cholesterol plaque, and could pay off in treatments for heart disease.”.

NO is so important to health that it was named “Molecule of the Year” in 1992, and in 1998 the Nobel Prize in medicine was awarded to the researchers who identified this “magic bullet.”

The problem with “heart disease” isn’t the heart—it is the blood flow to the heart. Stroke is not caused by problems with the brain, it is caused by poor blood flow to the brain, and loss of brain tissue due to that poor flow. People with diabetes know the risks of poor blood flow to the legs, can result in amputations and a lifetime of disability. Even 90% of erectile dysfunction is due to poor blood flow! Imagine a “magic bullet” which could support the blood flow throughout the entire body!


How can you put this remarkable science to work in your body? Increasing your arginine intake will increase your production of nitric oxide. Experts agree we need at least 5,000 mg of supplemental arginine for our bodies to benefit from this wonderful science.

So readers, look not too quickly to pharmaceutical drugs, but to important health supplements, arm your self with health and nutrition information.

More soon!
