Helps support cardiovascular system health

already in a healthy range

Grape Seed Extract

Resveratrol
A polyphenolic compound found in grapes and some berries. Resveratrol has been shown in lab tests to neutralise free radicals associated with a wide variety of beneficial physiological effects including cardiovascular health. It is also associated with helping maintain healthy vascular elasticity.
Green Tea Extract
An extract containing the catechin EGCG, which is associated with supporting healthy vascular elasticity.

What is the French Paradox?

Annually, Australian & New Zealanders drink an average of 29 litres of wine, while the French drink 52 litres.

The French consume more high-saturated fat and high cholesterol foods than their Australasian counterparts. But they enjoy significantly better heart health. This finding seemed to fly in the face of other research that clearly linked fat-laden diets with increased risk for poor heart health.

Many researchers attribute this paradox to the heart-healthy components of grapes. While the French may eat more fatty foods, they also drink more wine with their meals. The grapes used to make the wine are an extremely potent source of natural phenolic antioxidants including flavonoids.

ProvexCV provides all the benefits of grapes without any of the negative effects of sugars or alcohol.

THE PROVEXCV DIFFERENCE

The benefits of grapes!

Grape skin includes many critical natural compounds that are extremely useful for a healthy cardiovascular system, called anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are powerful polyphenolic compounds that are especially helpful in maintaining a healthy endothelial function.

Grapes are full of a wide variety of natural compounds, each with a different role to play within the human body. Like an orchestra, they can be tuned to achieve synergistic harmony. The right natural compounds at the right levels have far more impact on heart health than those at non-optimised levels.

The mix of natural compounds in ProvexCV has been researched and tested to ensure high bioavailability within the body to support cardiovascular system health.

The amazing organ called the heart.

Though most people don’t take time to consider the magnitude of its task, your heart is responsible for keeping you alive every minute of every day. It quietly thumps away, supplying every cell in the body with life-giving blood. Even when you sleep, your heart doesn’t. From the instant the tiny chambers find their rhythm in the womb until your final moments, the beat goes on.

The average adult's heart pumps about 5 quarts of blood each minute - that's 1,800 gallons of blood each day.
Blood takes about 20 seconds to circulate throughout the entire vascular system.
Your blood vessels, arteries, veins, and capillaries are more than 6000 miles long - enough to completely circle the globe twice.
In a 70-year lifetime, the average human heart beats more than 2.5 billion times.
An adult heart weighs between 8 and 10 ounces and is about the size of two fists.
Over the course of your life, your heart will pump 50,960,000 gallons of blood.
The largest vessels are as wide as a garden hose; the smallest capillaries are so thin blood cells travel through them single file.

The most important bodily function you’ve never heard of.

It's called the endothelial function. It is your body's ability to keep blood flowing quickly and smoothly throughout your cardiovascular system. When they function properly, endothelial cells reduce turbulence in blood, allowing it to be pumped farther with each heartbeat. They do this by affecting both the flexibility and elasticity of the vessels.

The endothelium is the thin layer of cells that line the interior surface of blood vessels, forming an interface between circulating blood and the rest of the vessel wall.

Controllable

Exercise

Physical exercise helps strengthen the muscles of the heart and encourage proper function throughout the entire cardiovascular system. Aerobic exercise helps open up the blood vessels and may help improve blood-clotting factors. Burning at least 250 calories a day with exercise is recommended for overall heart health. Your goal should be moderate exercise for about 45 minutes daily.
Salt

Reducing salt intake is associated with an improvement in heart health when compared to those consuming less salt daily. Healthy adults should consume no more than 2,300mg of sodium a day. Limiting processed foods is the one of the most effective ways to reduce sodium levels.
Tobacco

Using tobacco has been linked to a negative impact on heart health. Smokers are twice as likely to suffer from heart health issues as nonsmokers.
Alcohol

Consuming two or more drinks per day has been linked to heart health issues. If you drink, drink in moderation to reduce the stress on your heart.
Stress

Whether acute or prolonged, stress creates a greater workload for the heart. Managing stress through yoga, relaxation, or exercise is recommended to maintain a healthy heart.
Weight

Excess body weight is directly related to heart health. People who are overweight, particularly in the abdominal area, have more health issues related to the heart.

The best indicator for proper weight is body fat percentage, because a scale doesn’t reflect how much of your weight is fat and how much is muscle. Making a trip to a gym or your doctor's office will give you an accurate measure of your body fat. If you have excess body fat, strive to lose it in order to help maintain a healthy heart.
Diet

Diet has a clear connection to heart health. A diet high in fat, cholesterol, and sodium affects not only the blood, but the lining of vessels and the pressure of blood in the system.

Making dietary changes that limit fat, cholesterol, and sodium help the body maintain healthy blood pressure and can reduce the amount of plaque buildup. Fiber also plays a key role in removing excess cholesterol and maintaining healthy cholesterol levels in the body.

For a healthy heart, focus on increasing the amounts of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your diet. Cut down on cholesterol intake and choose good sources of fats such as olive oil, canola oil, and fatty fish.

Noncontrollable

Genetics

Scientists know that a specific protein plays a key role in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels by removing excess amounts from the blood. Some families have a gene defect that reduces the production of this protein. This gene puts certain people at increased risk for maintaining a healthy heart.
Ethnicity

Heart health is a leading concern for people of all ethnicities. However, African-Americans are proven to have more issues maintaining healthy blood pressure compared with Caucasians. African-American women are 72% more likely to have overall heart health concerns compared to Caucasians.
Gender

Traditionally, it has been believed that men have more difficulty maintaining heart health. However, with the highly publicized "Go Red for Women" campaign, more people are now realizing the impact that heart health concerns can also have on women. Since 1984, heart health concerns have affected more women than men.

Both men and women can sometimes experience no tangible issues with heart health, so it’s difficult to determine if they should be concerned. However, it’s even more pronounced with women. Their plaque distributes evenly throughout arterial walls; whereas men’s distributes in clumps. So angiograms for women can be misinterpreted as “normal”.
Type II Diabetes

Diabetes has a direct impact on heart health. Even when blood glucose levels are under control, diabetes can affect heart health.
Age

The foundations of a healthy heart begin as early as adolescence. By the age of 45 for men and 55 for women, years of unhealthy dietary and exercise habits begin to have an impact on heart health. Issues with heart health dramatically increase with age – younger men and women are far less likely to have concerns with this area of health.
