Complete E SAP
Vitamin E, a peroxyl radical scavenger, is the major lipid-soluble component in the cell antioxidant defense system and is exclusively obtained from the diet. Plants synthesize eight forms of vitamin E from homogentisic acid, namely the alpha, beta, gamma, and delta classes of tocopherol and tocotrienol. Although each of these molecules is a peroxyl radical scavenger, the human body seems to have a particular affinity for alpha-tocopherol. Vitamin E, in general, has been shown for its potential benefits for cardiovascular health and its role in the development of different types of cancer. Vitamin E’s ability to inhibit protein kinase C protects against inflammation, lipid buildup in the aorta, diabetic vascular complications, and platelet aggregation. Tocotrienols are equally superior in their antioxidant capacity and have a strong neuroprotection capability. NFH Complete E SAP provides a high-quality synergistic combination of mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols for optimal health.
SCIENCE-BASED HAWTHORN FOR CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH

Hawthorn SAP
Widely recorded in traditional medicine for its medicinal properties, hawthorn (Crataegus laevigata) has been extensively studied for its beneficial effects in cardiovascular health. Its unique chemical composition rich in flavonoids and oligomeric proanthocyanidins, especially vitexin are suggested to exert antiarrhythmic, hypotensive and hypolipidemic effects. Preclinical evidence shows support for the cholesterol lowering effects of hawthorn with a positive ionotropic effect, in addition to its antioxidant effect exhibited by lowering reactive oxygen species and reducing expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Clinical studies show improvement of coronary heart disease markers in diabetic patients, combined with hypotensive effects. In addition, research evidence indicates the potential of hawthorn in reducing incidence of cardiac death in patients with congestive heart failure. Some of the postulated mechanisms of action purported to the benefits of hawthorn include inhibition of phosphodiesterase activity, increasing the levels of cAMP in cardiac cells, inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme which exerts a vasodilating and hypotensive effect, lowering levels of LDL cholesterol by increasing LDL breakdown through hepatic receptors, antioxidant effect by increasing nitric oxide production, and inhibition of the Na+/K+-ATPase pump in cardiac muscles.
Science-based pea-emulsified coenzyme Q10 for optimal absorption
SIZE/FORMAT: 60capsules
SKU: 1078
PQ10 SAP
Coenzyme Q10 is produced by the human body, and is necessary for the basic functioning of healthy living cells. It has two main physiological roles: energy production and antioxidant protection. Without CoQ10, the chain of cellular energy is broken and without energy, cellular life ceases. CoQ10 levels decrease with age, and are even lower in patients with chronic diseases. Prescription drugs, including statins, may also lower CoQ10 levels, yet they can be increased by supplementing with CoQ10. PQ10 has the ability to be absorbed 2.5–4.25 times more efficiently than the standard ubiquinone form of CoQ10.
