BENEFITS ARTERIES AT ANY AGE

Aging is associated with increasing risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Changes in your arteries, such as hardening or cholesterol blockages, contribute to decreased physical activity. In addition, the age-related loss of muscle mass and function, known as sarcopenia, is also attributed to endothelial dysfunction. Decreased nitric oxide (NO) levels contribute to sarcopenia by leading to reduced blood flow and fewer amino acids delivered to skeletal muscles. Taking care of your endothelium is important to stop – or even reverse – this muscle weakening.
The endothelium is a single inner layer of cells that lines every artery in your body. Endothelial cells play a primary role in blood pressure and blood flow regulation by producing nitric oxide (NO), a potent vasodilator. More than 100,000 medical studies in the past twenty years validate its importance and beneficial impact on cellular health.
Endogenous NO is produced by a group of enzymes that convert the amino acid arginine into NO and citrulline. NO then rapidly diffuses into the muscular part of the artery, causing it to relax and increasing the blood flow to every organ. Can you think of any organ that will NOT improve with better circulation?
Recent evidence suggests that supplementation with both arginine and citrulline combined with exercise training may benefit arteries in all ages. That’s why we recommend Cardiomiracle for everyone. It contains both arginine and citrulline, along with 50 other non-GMO nutrients. It is also free from soy, dairy, gluten, additives, and stimulants such as caffeine.

ECP: EXTERNAL COUNTER PULSATION
Is your diabetes inhibiting your ability to enjoy life, including enjoyable activities such as golfing, taking walks, and even having sex? ECP may be your answer.
Diabetes has reached worldwide epidemic proportions, threatening to be a significant economic burden to patients and healthcare systems. It is an important driver of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Much has been written and published about the beneficial effects of exercise on diabetes. Besides weight loss, exercise introduces an element called pulsatile shear stress (PSS). Pulsatile shear stress (PSS) is produced by friction caused by the contraction of the heart and subsequent blood flow along arteries. PSS restores function to the endothelium, the important cells that line the arteries.
The endothelium mediates the balance between vasoconstriction and vasodilation because it is the primary producer of nitric oxide (NO). NO is critical for the relaxation of vessels, leading to increased blood flow and better circulation. It is an important signaling molecule that calms the body’s inflammatory cascade. A salient feature of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes is endothelial dysfunction and loss of NO production.
External counterpulsation (ECP) involves compression of the legs to buttocks using pneumatic cuffs, timed to early diastole via EKG leads attached to the motherboard of the compressor. Many beneficial clinical effects of ECP have been reported for diabetes, including positive changes in diabetic retinopathy (eyes) and diabetic nephropathy (kidneys). Other chronic complications of diabetes including early-onset peripheral neuropathy in the feet have improved with ECP sessions. (Watch video of Autumn explaining the ECP experience HERE)

Cholesterol is a Good Guy
Important for theentire body
For at least 30 years, we’ve been conditioned to believe that cholesterol is the ‘bad guy’ in our body and horrible for our health. Almost every health article and book you read screams about lowering your cholesterol level, like it’s pure poison. Diets, drugs, and entire lifestyles are designed to lower or nearly eliminate cholesterol from our blood and our tissues. I actually remember hearing a cardiologist proclaim years ago that he hoped the latest/greatest statin would lower his cholesterol levels to nearly zero. What an idiot. Did he learn nothing in medical school about the necessity of cholesterol for a healthy body?
Statins, the class of cholesterol-lowering drugs, have become some of the most prescribed drugs in America. As of 2017, more than 32 million people in the United States (10% of Americans) are currently on a statin with an estimated 56 million people (24% of Americans) eligible to consider a statin. A more recent report (2018) states that nearly 30% of adults 40 years and older in the US are on a statin. The widespread use of statins heightens the importance of careful consideration of their effects on the body. This is a short overview; entire books are written on the subject. But hopefully, you’ll see here there is another side to the story and be willing to consider doing something for your body.
