Magnesium is a key mineral for your nervous system, heart, and overall circulation. It is required in your heart to support the heart muscle’s normal contraction-relaxation pumping actions. Your heart also requires a tremendous amount of energy to work properly, and magnesium is needed in the final step of all energy synthesis (ATP production). Your...

Coenzyme Q10 is essential for energy production in your body; without enough Q10 you simply can not make energy at an optimal rate. Your heart requires huge amounts of energy to run properly. When you are fatigued, your nerves and heart do not have the energy they need to function in an optimal way, pointing your health in the wear and tear direction.*...

For those who want to support both memory and heart health, the nutrient acetyl-l-carnitine shines. Natural production of acetyl-l-carnitine in the body declines with age, just as Q10 does. Acetyl-l-carnitine is one of the most powerful nutrients for nourishing the autonomic nervous system that regulates heart rhythms. A number of studies have shown that...

Nerves must maintain healthy connections to tissues they are regulating, including the heart. When signs of nerve wear and tear (shaking, numbness, tingling, etc.) start to occur in the hands or feet, it means that the long nerves going to these areas are struggling to maintain healthy function. The basic nutrients needed for nerve transmission are B...

Substance P is a neuropeptide that is involved in the natural regulation of many aspects of your cardiovascular system. Under normal circumstances it helps control vascular relaxation and thus blood pressure by enhancing the formation of nitric oxide. It also promotes the normal movement of fluids out of blood vessels for a variety of reasons. The main...

Your immune system requires large amounts of energy to function correctly. If you are tired or fatigued then that is a form of stress to the healthy function of your immune system. B vitamins are the most basic nutrient support for energy production. Daily Energy Multiple Vitamin and or Super B Complex are a great way to get the finest quality b-vitamins...

Your liver plays a central role in the metabolism of any type of calorie. During weight gain your liver is being punched in the nose by inflammatory metabolic flu signals coming from your white adipose tissue (stored fat) and your digestive tract (bacterial imbalance, LPS, Candida, etc.). At the same time, your white adipose tissue is unable to store fat...

Cold hands, cold feet, and cold nose reveal clues about circulation and body temperature. Impaired thyroid and adrenal fatigue are the most common causes of low body temperature. Learn about the key points for solving low body temperature distress.

The heart is one of the most energy-demanding organs in the body. New research is exposing evidence that preventing certain cardiac problems depends on the health of the heart’s mitochondria.

Thiamin is an essential vitamin needed for energy production, brain health, heart health, muscle function, and mood. Signs that thiamin is lacking include trouble focusing, poor coordination, fatigue, fluid retention, and muscle pain. Thiamin is depleted by high carbohydrates and sugar, caffeine, alcohol, certain medications, and stress.

Nearly 7 out of 10 Americans take prescription drugs. More than half take two drugs. Senior citizens, 65 and older, take on average 14 or more prescription drugs per year. This creates a major concern with negative drug interactions and nutrient depletions.

Several years ago, Byron Richards, CCN, reported that Neurontin and Lyrica are a death sentence for new brain synapses. Today there is more evidence to support the adverse effects these drugs have on the nervous system. If you have used one of these drugs or are currently using them, there is even more incentive to protect your nerves and reverse damage.
