iHerb Supports American Heart Month With Wealth of Expert Content on Cardiovascular Health

February 14 2023

(Pasadena, California, February 14, 2023)iHerb, a global leader in health and wellness, is supporting American Heart Month this February, by providing consumers with resources to help support  healthy living and maintain a healthy heart.  

“Our heart is an incredible organ. In an average lifetime, it beats steadily over 2.5 billion times and pumps a stunning 100 billion gallons of blood through our body! The importance of supporting heart health is obvious. Knowing this, iHerb is ramping up efforts to educate consumers on the many effective ways to support heart health through diet, lifestyle, and the proper use of heart-healthy dietary supplements.” Dr. Michael Murray, iHerb’s Chief Scientific Advisor.

The following are suggestions to help support cardiovascular health , which you can read in full on the iHerb blogan excellent resource for all things health and wellness. 

1. Exercise: A regular exercise routine, specifically a combination of resistance or weight training and aerobic exercises, has been shown to benefit heart health. Studies demonstrate that exercise helps to enhance the function of mitochondria, improve the integrity of arteries, and even release myokines, small proteins that may help improve muscle function, including heart muscle. 

2. Proper Nutrition: Research shows that some nutrient-dense, heart-healthy diets may be more beneficial in supporting heart health than others. One of those diets is the Mediterranean diet that consists of whole grains, vegetables, nuts, seeds, herbs, spices, olive oil, and fruits. 

3. Stress Reduction: Reducing stress may be one way to support heart health, such as having a daily meditation or mindfulness practice. 

4. Using Nutrients to Support Heart Health: Dietary supplements  such as antioxidants and phytochemicals may help support  heart health. For example, CoQ10, Beet Root Extract, Amino Acids and Omega 3-6-9. For the full list of recommended supplements, visit the full blog post!
