ENERGY SUPPORT - PACK I

The heart is the hardest working organ in our body. It contracts and relaxes 100,000 times a day, pumping approximately 2,000 gallons of blood. The heart muscle uses tremendous amounts of energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) to function properly. The cardiac cells produce energy by burning fat and sugar. However, this biological fuel cannot be converted into energy molecules without specific vitamins, minerals, and other micronutrients. These essential catalysts for the bioenergy cycle need to be continuously supplied in our diet. The heart and oxidative stress. Continuously contracting heart muscle cells have high oxygen consumption and are constantly exposed to oxidative stress and cell damage. Therefore, it is important to provide an optimum supply of antioxidant micronutrients for cell protection from oxidative stress. The essential micronutrients which are critical for optimum heart function and general health and longevity must be carefully selected and synergistica
