The heart and blood vessels form one of the body's most important systems, so a great deal of attention is paid to maintaining how they work. A healthy lifestyle is the foundation, and peptide bioregulators are food supplements intended to help maintain normal cardiovascular system function. In this article we discuss how peptides can help support the work of your heart and blood vessels.
The cardiovascular system - the heart and blood vessels
Contents
Why is cardiovascular health so important?
The heart and blood vessels form a closed system that supplies every cell of the body with oxygen and nutrients. With age this system faces more and more challenges:
The Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology, led by Professor Vladimir Khavinson, has carried out many years of research into peptides. Peptide bioregulators are intended to help maintain normal cardiovascular system function.
Peptides for the heart muscle: Chelohart
Chelohart is a natural peptide bioregulator (cytomax) obtained from animal heart tissue. It is intended specifically to help maintain the health of the heart muscle - the myocardium.
Chelohart mechanism of action:
- check_circleHelps maintain normal metabolism in myocardial cells
- check_circleHelps maintain a normal heart rhythm
- check_circleContributes to maintaining the ordinary activity of heart muscle cells
- check_circleIntended to help maintain the work of the heart muscle
In studies involving older adults, Chelohart was studied for its effect on indicators of heart function and general well-being.
Peptides for blood vessels: Ventfort
Ventfort is a natural peptide bioregulator obtained from blood vessel wall tissue. It acts on the structure of the arteries and veins, helping to maintain their elasticity and integrity.
Ventfort benefits:
- check_circleHelps maintain blood vessel wall elasticity
- check_circleHelps maintain normal vascular tone
- check_circleContributes to maintaining normal blood pressure
- check_circleHelps maintain normal peripheral circulation
Ventfort is suitable for people who want to maintain normal vascular function and circulation.
Synthetic vascular peptide: Vesugen
Vesugen is a synthetic peptide (cytogen) created in the laboratory by reproducing the active fragment of natural vascular peptides. It is a tripeptide made up of three amino acids: lysine, glutamic acid and asparagine.
Vesugen advantages:
- check_circleIntended to help maintain the function of the vascular endothelium
- check_circleHelps maintain normal vascular function
- check_circleSuitable for vegetarians (synthetic origin)
- check_circleAn excellent maintenance product after a Ventfort course
Recommended peptide programmes for the heart and blood vessels
Basic programme (maintenance):
For people who want to maintain the ordinary work of the heart and blood vessels day to day.
Heart health - the most important priority
Additional tips for heart health
Peptide bioregulators work best as part of a healthy lifestyle. We recommend:
Regular physical activity
at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise 5 days a week
A balanced diet
plenty of vegetables, fruit, wholegrain products and oily fish
Stress management
meditation, deep breathing exercises
Regular health check-ups
monitoring blood pressure, cholesterol and blood sugar levels
It is important to note that peptide bioregulators are not medicines and should not replace medication prescribed by a doctor. They are food supplements that help maintain the ordinary work of the cardiovascular system.
