According to the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. However, we are not defenseless against them. Most cardiovascular diseases are self-inflicted and can be prevented
A lack of physical activity is among the most important factors that promote the risk of developing these diseases. However, extreme levels of exercise can also pose a risk. According to studies, intense training at performance levels can contribute to thickening of the left ventricular wall of the heart, which is considered the most common cause of nontraumatic sudden cardiac death in individuals under 35 years of age
In addition, many athletes in a wide variety of sports, even at the hobby level, expose their bodies to the use of performance-enhancing agents, such as anabolic steroids and stimulants. The various substances may pose an independent risk for the development of cardiovascular disease through different pathways
In recent years, there has been a great increase in awareness about organ health among athletes. Especially those who use performance enhancing drugs should undergo regular health checks and blood work to keep an eye on the health of their organs, including the cardiovascular system.
HOW SHOULD HEART+ BE TAKEN?
One serving of heart+ is equivalent to 4 capsules. In principle, these can be taken at any time of the day, preferably with meals. Due to the antioxidant content, we recommend taking them at a time as far away from weight training as possible. Research suggests that acute ingestion of high levels of antioxidants may inhibit the acute training stimulus in terms of strength, muscle mass and endurance in the short term.
We therefore recommend taking Heart+ at least 3 hours away from training.
