Learn about the importance of a healthy cardiovascular system from Dr. Lou Ignarro. Q: I’ve been hearing a lot about cardiovascular health. Why is it so important? A: Your cardiovascular system is literally at the heart of your overall
health. Maintaining it is crucial for a variety of reasons. It gives you energy and the ability to keep up with the daily demands of life. A healthy cardiovascular system is also essential for mental clarity and protecting you against stress. Additionally, cardiovascular health contributes to overall vitality. Q: What kinds of things can I do to improve my cardiovascular health?
** Lou Ignarro, Ph.D. Nobel Laureate in Medicine and member of Herbalife’s Scientific and Nutrition Advisory Boards
A: There are several things you can–and should–incorporate into your life to
maintain a healthy cardiovascular system. Exercise is crucial. Brisk walks, sit-ups, light weight training, swimming and biking are all excellent, lowimpact and efficient exercises for any fitness level. The important thing is to do something every day. Another important factor is proper eating–and that means getting the right amount of essential vitamins and other nutrients, as well as antioxidants. Q: How does Herbalife’s Core Complex help improve heart health? A: Core Complex targets four key indicators of heart health: cholesterol,
triglycerides, homocysteine and oxidative stress.* Taking Core Complex is a great way to give your cardiovascular system the nutrition it needs every day. Whatever you do to maintain a healthy cardiovascular system, the important thing to remember is to make it a priority. Exercise regularly, eat right and keep stress to a minimum. Your health depends on it.
