Reduce Your Risk of Heart Disease with 2 Key Nutrients

Posted: January 24, 2021 | By: Rocio Ramos

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death amongst men and women worldwide.[1] More people die from heart disease than all cancers combined.[2] But it doesn’t have to be this way. By making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, staying active, and reducing (or even eliminating) use of harmful substances such as tobacco and alcohol, individuals can significantly reduce their chances of developing cardiovascular disease.  As simple as this may sound, it’s often not that easy for people to adhere to the lifestyle changes necessary to help prevent heart disease.

Fortunately, it may be possible to cut heart disease deaths in half, say researchers in Sweden. A Swedish research study, published in the International Journal of Cardiology, found that by combining Selenium and CoQ10, mortality rates from cardiovascular diseases were reduced by almost 50%![3]

Benefits of Selenium

Selenium is one of only a few supplements to hold Qualified Health Claims with the FDA: Selenium may reduce the risk of colon, prostate, bladder and thyroid cancers. Dr. Joel Wallach and Youngevity played a key role in advocating for this health claim.  Selenium is an essential mineral with antioxidant benefits that supports many other areas our health, including cognitive function and immunity.*

Benefits of CoQ10

CoQ10 (Coenzyme Q10) is found in almost every cell in the body. Your body actually makes its own CoQ10 so that your cells can use it to produce energy needed for your growth and maintenance.* It also provides antioxidant benefits that help support many areas of health.  One study has even linked low levels of CoQ10 to neurodegeneration.[4]

Youngevity offers two products that offer a healthy dose of Selenium and CoQ10. Ultimate™ Selenium and CoQ10 Plus E may help support your intake of these cardiovascular-supporting nutrients in order to support a long, healthy lifespan.  Now with this Swedish research study, there is even more support for supplementing your nutrition with both of these, together to reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease.
