The heart's health - taken for granted by many- is highly responsive to lifestyle and dietary changes critical to life.  Worldwide, however, hearts are not all that healthy, as stated in the World Health Organization's report: cardiovascular diseases are responsible for around 20% of all deaths worldwide (approximately 13 million). They are the principle cause of death in all developed countries, accounting for 50% of all deaths, and are also emerging as a prominent public health problem in developing countries.

Although many factors influence the health of the heart, two elements are of particular interest- cholesterol and homocysteine. Cholesterol consists of low- and high-density lipoproteins, and it is the low-density lipoproteins (LDL) which clog arteries. Homocysteine is a product of the normal metabolism of protein; however elevated levels of homocysteine develop due to factors such as genetics or nutritional deficiencies. It is these elevated levels of homocysteine which are dangerous and are believed to cause a weakened fabric of the lining of the arteries. Heritage Healthy Heart, formulated by Dr. Rod Ruhe, at the University of California in Davis, takes a double-barrel approach to positively impacting both low-density lipoproteins and homocysteine.

The LDL complex in Heritage's Healthy Heart consists of proven powerhouse antioxidants, which scavenge free radicals (rendering them harmless) as well as enhance the health and strength of artery walls. These ingredients include Vitamins C and E, selenium and bioflavanoids. The homocystine complex is a state of the art compilation of nutrients including folic acid, Vitamin B6, choline and betaine, which have been proven to reduce plasma levels of homocysteine.
