Naturally Lower Your Cholesterol

      The co-enzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like substance found in all the cells in the body. It is concentrated in our primary organs such as the heart, kidney and liver where its most essential function is to supply us with energy. Unfortunately, the production of this vital element that the body naturally generates, decreases continuously over time as we become older.  Also, some diseases can also shrink the level of CoQ10 that is released.  Restoring the co-enzyme q10 with a natural supplement has resulted in many positive aspects including reducing cholesterol, lowering blood pressure and helping to decrease the chance of gum disease.

Cholesterol
It is common understanding that we naturally make cholesterol.   Some individuals, especially the active ones, have been able to manage their cholesterol with healthy eating habits and exercise.  Essentially, you want to have higher levels of HDL and lower levels of LDL.  In some cases, you need to have a little support in cutting down those LDL levels.  A natural supplement could very well help reduce the bad cholesterol by delivering protection against the oxidation of the cells.  Oxidation of the circulating LDL is thought to play a primary role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, which can lead to a stroke and heart attack.

Hypertension
Hypertension or high blood pressure is routinely referred to as the silent killer because you can be walking around with it and not even know it.  Most of the time there are no recognizable symptoms.  However, long term high blood pressure can lead to damage to your heart and blood vessels.  The only way to learn whether you have hypertension or not is to have your blood pressure checked on a regular basis. It is simple and painless to have your blood pressure checked. Many pharmacies have blood pressure machines where you can check your blood pressure for free.  However, to get the most accurate reading it is preferred that it be checked by a health care provider.  As age and your blood vessels toughen, it is more likely that you will develop hypertension. Sometimes you can manage your blood pressure by eating a healthy diet, exercising consistently and limiting your salt and alcohol consumption.  In clinical studies of patients with high blood pressure, it was detected that CoQ10 has the possibility to lower blood pressure.

Taking small doses of a co enzyme Q10 supplement in a concentrated form can benefit the cardiovascular system, increase energy levels, maintain dental health, improve memory and promote the healthiness of the immune system.
