Taurine is more than just an amino acid. Emerging research highlights its impressive benefits for cardiovascular health, including blood pressure reduction and improved heart function. Learn how taurine can potentially enhance your heart health.

Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death globally. Glutathione, a powerful antioxidant, plays a critical role in reducing the oxidative stress that contributes to these conditions. This article explores the science behind glutathione's impact on heart health and how it can be leveraged to prevent cardiovascular issues.

Poor fitness and sedentary aging can increase heart stiffness, leading to heart failure. But can high-intensity exercise reverse these effects? A study suggests it can. Read on to discover how high-intensity workouts may protect your heart and slow aging.

Eating one serving of pulses (beans, chickpeas, lentils, and peas) daily can significantly lower LDL cholesterol and improve heart health, according to a review of 26 clinical studies.

This study looked at how olive oil, compared to butter, affects our heart health markers, like blood pressure and cholesterol level.

Berberine is known for its therapeutic effects. It is supporting digestive, metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurological health (Song D, et.al., 2020).

In a recent study involving 44 identical twins, researchers found that a vegan diet can lead to better heart health compared to an omnivorous diet.

The glutathione system is a vital defender against heart damage, acting as an antioxidant powerhouse within the cardiovascular system.

The 'Portfolio' diet, rich in plant protein (legums), nuts, and fibers, isn't just a fad—it could be lifesaving.

This study included 1048 participants between the age of 50 and 80 years old without cardiovascular disease (Hu T, et. al., 2023). The researchers investigated the associations of 2-year changes in fat percentage and fat-free mass percentage with occurring cardiovascular events.   This is what they found. The participants with...

This study included 2315 men between the age of 42 and 60 years (Laukkanen T, et.al., 2015). The purpose of the research was to investigate the association of frequency and duration of sauna bathing with the risk of sudden cardiac death, fatal coronary heart disease, fatal cardiovascular disease, and all-cause...

In this research 11 studies on black tea and 24 studies on green tea were analyzed for an association of tea consumption and the risk of cardiovascular disease ( Yang X, et.al., 2022).     The results showed that drinking less than four cups of black tea daily may prevent...

  The following research investigated the effect of consuming a plant-based diet on blood Lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) levels and other risk factors in overweight and obese individuals (Najjar RS, et.al., 2018). High Lp(a) levels increase your likelihood of having a heart attack or stroke. Lp(a) can cause increased clotting, which...

  The following research combined exercise and sauna use comparing it with only exercise for the benefits of cardiovascular function (Lee E, et.al., 2022). The researchers measured blood pressure, cardiorespiratory fitness, fat mass, total cholesterol levels, and arterial stiffness. The participants were an average of 49 years old with low...

  The reason to conduct the following research was to investigate the impact of blueberry flavonoid intake on endothelial function in healthy men (Rodriguez-Mateos A, et.al., 2013). Two randomized, controlled, double-blind, crossover human-intervention trials were conducted with 21 healthy men. The impact of blueberry flavonoid intake on flow-mediated dilation and...

This research evaluated the effects of two different diets, one containing walnuts and the other almonds on endothelial function (Bhardwaj R, et.al., 2018). The endothelium is the inner layer of the blood vessels and is important for healthy cardiovascular function. The study was a randomized crossover, controlled intervention study with...

  The following research included 237 036 men 57% and 179 068 women with the average age of 62 years (Huang J, et al., 2020). The researchers compared the risk of mortality between animal source protein and plant-based protein adjusting for other risk factors. They found that greater dietary plant...

  This study was conducted to evaluate the preventive effect of EPA and DHA on cardiovascular disease (Bernasconi AA, et al., 2020). EPA and DHA are the active ingredients of omega 3 fat. The research included 135,267 participants from 40 studies. The researchers found that supplementation with EPA and DHA...

  The following research analyzed 40 randomized controlled trials which included 135,267 participants (Bernasconi AA, et al., 2020). The researchers investigated the results of supplementation with EPA and DHA which are the active ingredients in omega 3 fish oil. They looked at cardiovascular outcomes and included myocardial infarction, coronary heart...

  This population-based study included 495 077 women and men with an average age of 56.6 years (Li ZH, et al., 2020). The researchers wanted to find out if glucosamine would affect mortality. They evaluated all-cause mortality and mortality due to cardiovascular disease, cancer, respiratory and digestive disease. The average...
