Supporting a normal heart rhythm
This new formula takes advantage of the latest science in support of normal heart rhythm. Magnesium and Taurine have been combined in the form of Magnesium Taurinate providing a more effective ability to promote proper electrical transmissions in support of normal cardiac rhythms. In addition to Magnesium Taurinate, a trio of specialty herbs provides further synergistic benefits. This trio includes: Alkaloid berberine to help protect the myocardium from injury; and Amino acid taurine to help regulate membrane excitability and support healthy potassium levels inside heart cells.
Sudden cardiac death, resulting from untreated rapid ventricular fibrillation, is the leading cause of death in the United States. Sudden cardiac death occurs most often in people who have had heart attacks (myocardial infarction) in the past, but can also occur in young people who were entirely well until the time of death. Ischemia, caused by a lack of oxygen to the heart due to narrowing of the coronary arteries, can lead to cardiac arrest, a heart attack from a sustained ventricular arrhythmia. A number of natural agents have been shown to prevent the occurrence of arrhythmias while supporting normal heart rhythm and improving cardiac function.
Berberine, the active ingredient found in the herb goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) has been shown to be beneficial for ventricular arrhythmias caused by lack of oxygen. Evidence also suggests that berberine administration can help prevent the onset of re-entrant ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden coronary death after myocardial
ischemic damage.
Myocardial biopsies of patients with various cardiac diseases showed a CoQl0 deficiency in up to 75% of cases. Research has shown that orally administered CoQl0 can improve functioning of myocardial tissue, strengthening the heart’s contractions and making it beat more strongly and more regularly.
Taurine modulates the activity of cAMP and affects enzymes in heart muscle that contribute to contractility. Taurine also plays a role in the metabolism of calcium and may affect entry of calcium into heart muscle cells where it is essential in the generation and transmission of nerve impulses. Research shows that taurine prevents arrhythmogenesis by limiting cardiac hypertrophy and calcium overload of the myocardium. Taurine also protects the heart against reperfusion-induced arrhythmias via its properties as a membrane stabilizer and as an oxygen free radical scavenger.
