Herzklassiker aus der Naturheilkunde

A healthy cardiovascular system is a crucial prerequisite for physical and mental fitness, for vitality and well-being. Maintain the strength of a strongly pumping heart and freely flowing blood. Garlic and hawthorn support you in this. The balanced composition of secondary plant substances, vitamins and minerals that occur naturally in the two medicinal plants have a positive effect on your blood vessels and your blood lipid levels and help you prevent arteriosclerosis.

Arteriosclerosis is caused by the build-up of fat and calcium on the walls of the vessels. Once a certain amount of plaque has been deposited , your vessels lose their elasticity, their diameter shrinks and your blood no longer flows freely. The result is circulatory problems, which can lead to heart failure, strokes and heart attacks. In order to prevent such dangerous arteriosclerosis , a healthy lifestyle with plenty of exercise and a healthy diet with little animal fat is helpful. The active ingredients in garlic and hawthorn also help. They expand your blood vessels and prevent blood platelets from sticking together. This allows your blood to flow freely. The combination of active ingredients in Medicom's garlic-hawthorn capsules also reduces the amount of blood fat in the body and thus the risk of deposits.

The bulbs of the garlic bulb have played a role in the healing arts for thousands of years. They were used to prevent age-related vascular changes, to improve blood flow properties and to support disorders of blood lipid levels. The ingredients contained in garlic - especially allicin - as well as the mixture of amino acids, secondary plant substances and selenium have positive effects on the heart. The ingredients of the hawthorn fruit (Crataegi fructus) contain valuable secondary plant substances (oligomeric procyanidins). They are said to have heart-strengthening properties such as supporting cardiac muscle strength and blood circulation as well as regulating blood pressure. The extract from the hawthorn fruit is, alongside garlic, a classic for naturally strengthening the heart muscle and cardiovascular system and has already been used in traditional Chinese medicine. The recommended daily dose of two soft gel capsules provides you with 200 mg of powder from the garlic bulb and 100 mg of extract from the hawthorn fruit. Use this valuable herbal dietary supplement and the double power of its natural active ingredients for a healthy heart and good blood circulation.
