Healthy Heart & Cardio Chelation:

Our Healthy Heart supplements are formulated with your cardiovascular health in mind. Featuring a vegetarian formulation enriched with BerryVin and BioVin, these supplements aim to boost energy production in heart muscle cells, keeping your ticker in top shape. Packed with a synergistic blend of nutrients including coenzyme Q10, Hawthorne berries, selenium, and chondroitin sulfate, our Healthy Heart formula provides comprehensive support for a robust cardiovascular system.

Pair it with our Cardio Chelation supplements for an extra boost! Designed to nourish a healthy cardiovascular system, these supplements are fortified with coenzyme Q10 and alpha-lipoic acid. But what exactly do these ingredients do?

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10):

Coenzyme Q10, or CoQ10 for short, is a powerful antioxidant naturally produced by the body. It plays a crucial role in energy production within cells, including those of the heart. As we age, our natural production of CoQ10 declines, which may impact heart health. Supplementing with CoQ10 can help support overall heart function by aiding in the production of ATP, the primary energy molecule in cells. Additionally, CoQ10 has been shown to have antioxidant properties, helping to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.

Alpha-Lipoic Acid:

Alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) is another potent antioxidant that plays a key role in cellular energy production. Like CoQ10, ALA is involved in the production of ATP and helps to neutralize free radicals, reducing oxidative stress in the body. ALA is unique in that it is both water and fat-soluble, allowing it to work in various parts of the body, including inside cells and in cell membranes. Studies suggest that ALA may also help improve insulin sensitivity and support healthy nerve function.

Migrelease:

But wait, there’s more! If migraines are causing you discomfort, our Migrelease supplements are here to lend a helping hand. Formulated with the added benefit of Coenzyme Q10, Migrelease offers nutritional support for migraine sufferers. Don’t let migraines disrupt your daily routine – support your mitochondrial function with riboflavin and experience relief like never before.

In a three-month randomized controlled trial, a 400mg dose of riboflavin was found to be superior to a placebo in reducing attack frequency and headache days. The study concluded that “high-dose riboflavin was effective in migraine prophylaxis,” highlighting the importance of Vitamin B2 in supporting mitochondrial function and increasing brain mitochondrial energy reserves.

Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to prioritize your heart health and find relief from migraines. Enter discount code HEART20 at checkout to enjoy 20% off our Healthy Heart & Cardio Chelation combo. Embrace wellness this February and let your heart shine with vitality!

Mega Flavonoid + Enflam

Nature is abundant with plant constituents that support a healthy anti-inflammatory response. 

Bioflavonoids are one example. Bioflavonoids are plant pigments that help vitamin C to support collagen integrity and they also have strong antioxidant activity. This can be very helpful when there is inflammation in the respiratory tract and sinuses as well as in blood vessels, especially the smallest ones (capillaries) that are most vulnerable to damage from inflammation and oxidative stress. This inflammation and oxidation can come in the form of environmental and other allergies, toxins from the environment, high intensity exercise, and even natural biochemical reactions that happen on a daily basis in your body. 

When bioflavonoids are combined with other supporting nutrients like vitamins A, C, and Zinc that have either anti-inflammatory or antioxidant properties, the synergistic effects can do wonders for supporting respiratory health and maintaining healthy tissues and capillaries. Priority One Vitamins has created two supplements that combine bioflavonoids with other anti-inflammatory and antioxidant rich nutrients: Mega Flavonoid 2000 and Enflam. 

Mega Flavonoid 2000 combines vitamin A, vitamin C, and Zinc with bioflavonoids like Rutin, Quercetin, Hesperidin, Bromelain and Dunaliella. It is especially helpful for respiratory and sinus health, natural maintenance of healthy tissues and capillaries, and general antioxidant support. Similarly, Enflam is a combination of vitamin A, vitamin C and Zinc with high doses of the bioflavonoids Hesperidin, Bromelain, Rutin, Quercetin as well as bioflavonoid extract from Bitter Orange. Enflam also includes Turmeric, a potent anti-inflammatory flavonoid. Along with supporting healthy tissues and capillaries, Enflam is also great to use after strenuous exercise to reduce inflammation. 

Mega Flavonoid 2000 supplements are a high-dose bioflavonoid complex synergistically blended with therapeutic levels of vitamins A, C, and Zinc. Bioflavonoids are plant pigments that give fruits and vegetables their colors. They assist vitamin C in supporting collagen integrity and along with vitamin C display strong antioxidant activity. Those nutrients found in these bioflavonoid supplements have been shown to support healthy levels of leukotrienes and histamine.* 

• Respiratory health and sinus support supplements* 

• Supports the body’s natural maintenance of healthy tissues and capillaries.*

• Vitamin C and bioflavonoids display strong antioxidant activity.*

Enflam is a high dosage bioflavonoid combination designed to support the body’s natural maintenance of healthy tissues and capillaries. It promotes a healthy inflammatory response, such as in the case of strenuous exercise. Suitable as a post-workout supplement to reduce inflammation.*

Healthy Heart + Magnesium Orotate

I love February because it is National Heart Health month. And what better way to celebrate than to get a special discount on supplements that support a healthy heart!

This month Priority One Vitamins is offering 20% off two of my favorite supplements for heart health support – Healthy Heart and Magnesium Orotate. To get the discount, enter the discount code HEALTHYHEART at checkout. 

During the month of February we are often inundated with heart-shaped chocolates, balloons, pink flowers and teddy bears. But none of these do much to actually help our physical heart (except dark chocolate of course!). Our hearts beat all day every day, keeping oxygen and vital nutrients circulating throughout our body. It does this without us even having to think about it. For some people, this process can go on for over 100 years. That’s pretty miraculous, right?! 

While our cardiovascular system is a powerful pumping machine, it can also be quite delicate. This is especially true of the smallest blood vessels, called capillaries, that deliver oxygen and nutrients to the brain, eyes and kidneys. But even the larger blood vessels can get worn out and damaged. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), inflammation, and toxins can damage the delicate lining of the blood vessels. Nutrient deficiencies, nutrient excess, and other lifestyle factors can also accelerate damage to the cardiovascular system. 

Some of the best nutrients for a healthy heart include dark pigmented berries, Hawthorn, Magnesium, CoQ10 and the extract Resveratrol. All of these can be found in Priority One Vitamins Healthy Heart supplement along with many other nutrient rich minerals and plant extracts. The supplement Magnesium Orotate was specifically formulated because there is research supporting that when minerals such as magnesium are bound to orotic acid they become more effective and bioavailable. Magnesium is essential for so many processes including energy transfer, muscle and nerve conduction – all the main working mechanisms needed for heart function!

Healthy Heart features a vegetarian formulation with BerryVin and BioVin designed to promote energy production in heart muscle cells.

A blend of balanced nutrients provides support for a healthy cardiovascular system, with beneficial ingredients like Coenzyme Q10, Hawthorne berries, Selenium, and Chondroitin Sulfate.

Magnesium Orotate provides support for the cardiovascular system, and aid in normal energy levels. Magnesium is an essential mineral that aids in the production and transfer of energy, as well as in muscle conduction and nerve conduction. 

Orotic acid is a biochemical substance made naturally by the human body; orotates are mineral salts created by binding a mineral to orotic acid. Orotic acid is a biochemical substance made by all living cells and naturally by the human body. The mineral salts of orotic acid, called orotates, are used by plants and animals to form RNA and DNA.

Perhaps the biggest proponent in the use of orotates was Dr. Hans Nieper, a German physician. Dr. Nieper believed orotates were far superior in their ability to carry molecules across cell membranes, producing higher concentrations of minerals in the cell. During his lifetime, Dr. Nieper was often ignored and criticized for his use of oratates.

Recent research, however, has confirmed minerals bound to orotic acid are not only beneficial, but may be superior in their bioavailability and effectiveness. A 1998 study showed that triathletes who supplemented with magnesium orotate had improved glucose utilization and a reduced stress response without affecting competitive potential. This translated into improved swimming, cycling, and running times in the magnesium group compared with the controls.1 Competitive athletes have also used magnesium to improve endurance, it is known that exercise performance may be compromised with deficient magnesium levels.* 2,3

“The general population, even physically active individuals, have been documented to have insufficient magnesium intake.”* 3 It has also been suggested that magnesium supplementation may improve the efficiency of energy metabolism.* 3

Love Your Liver

Holidays, weekends, social gatherings, special events, and even stressful situations often include alcohol.

The liver is a focus when it comes to alcohol consumption. This is partly because alcohol is broken down with the help of an enzyme called alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) in the liver, and also because the liver takes a big hit when alcohol is consumed in excess. When you drink heavy amounts of alcohol, the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme is not able to keep up with breaking the alcohol down proportionately and the excess alcohol wreaks havoc on the liver. Some of the major health concerns related to heavy alcohol consumption or binge drinking include alcoholic fatty liver disease, liver cirrhosis, and liver cancer. 

Would you like a better balance with alcohol? If you have been relying on alcohol for mood and social support, or reliant on it for so long that you have grown tolerant or dependent on it – then doing a reset is a great way to help. A change like this can assist with alcohol abstinence, support the liver and a healthier, stress-free lifestyle.  

Using a combination of herbs and nutrients that address the adrenal glands and liver while at the same time help to decrease the cravings is a good way to get a whole-body reset. My favorite trio includes Priority One’s supplements Lithium, Priority Lipo, and Adrenoplex. Used in combination, they can help support normal elimination from the liver, provide nourishment and promote a healthy response to stress. 

Lithium – Research shows that lithium offers neuroprotective support and may offer neuronal protection from the effects of alcohol. Excess alcohol can lead to a loss of neurons, specifically in the central nervous system, and supplementing with lithium may decrease the extent of neuron apoptosis (programmed cell death). Low-dose lithium has also been shown to promote the abstinence of alcohol consumption. 

Priority Lipo – Is a formula that includes many amazing herbs and nutrients specific for liver support. The ingredients included are known to decrease inflammation, lower lipid levels, provide antioxidant support, and protect liver cells from damage. Plants like dandelion root, barberry, milk thistle, beet and green tea aid with reducing free radical damage, offer protection from oxidative stress, and reduce triglyceride and cholesterol levels. Liver supporting Ayurvedic herbs as well as vitamin and mineral enzyme cofactors are also added.  

Adrenoplex – Includes the adaptogenic herb Eleuthero as well as Licorice which can help to extend the half-life of cortisol. It also contains vitamins A and C as well as the mineral Zinc which are important for a healthy immune response. Adrenal and pituitary glandulars are also added based on the concept pioneered by Dr. John Bastyr that glandular concentrates support like organs to maintain a healthy state. In combination, these nutrients help to maintain balanced cortisol levels, support the body’s natural immune response, and encourage a healthy stress response.

How do EPA & DHA support our health?

Priority One Vitamins EPA-DHA

Cardiovascular disease, neurodegenerative disease and general inflammation are prevalent in society. They can significantly decrease quality of life and impact longevity. Thankfully, nature has provided us with beneficial omega-3 fatty acids that can support each of these areas!

EPA-DHA is an abbreviation for eicosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids. These essential fatty acids are vital nutrients needed for the synthesis of prostaglandins, formation of neurotransmitters, support of a healthy cardiovascular system and support of normal eye function. 

The human body is able to make most of the fats it needs for daily function from raw materials. The exception to this is the omega-3 fatty acids. Because we are not able to produce these fats from scratch, they are called essential fatty acids, meaning we have to get them from food sources. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in fish, nuts, flax seed, flaxseed oil, and some leafy vegetables.

Because omega-3 fatty acids are a major component of cell membranes and play a part in the function of cell receptors, inflammation modulation is one of their many benefits. This includes modulating inflammatory skin concerns, cardiovascular function and joint conditions.

Both EPA and DHA are omega-3 fatty acids that are mainly found in fish like salmon, mackerel, sardines, and other cold water fish. Including these foods in meal plans can be beneficial for reducing inflammation, supporting the formation of phosphatidylserine which is important brain function and supporting a healthy heart and vascular system. Taking a nutritional supplement rich in EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids is a great way to  provide additional support.  

EPA-DHA is 20% off for the month of March! Use discount code “OMEGA” on our website to receive the special pricing.
