  Because lesions (damage) in the blood vessels can be avoided or healed with high doses of Vitamin C, and because Lysine and Proline inhibit the binding of Lp(a) cholesterol (Lipoprotein(a)) to these lesions, which form dangerous plaques. It also provides the HEART POWER of anti-oxidant Vitamins E & A, plus Arginine, Folic acid, and Vitamin B6 in a pleasant tasting, well absorbed drink. Lp(a) (not LDL cholesterol) is the true factor that causes occlusive cardiovascular disease, leading to heart attacks and strokes. Lp(a) is a pinch-hitter for Vitamin C when the intake of this vitamin is less than is necessary to make collagen for lesion repair. Linus Pauling's specific cardiovascular recommendations are from 3000 mg (preventive) to 6000 mg (therapeutic) or more of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), and from 2000 to 6000 mg L-lysine. Both are essential nutrients, foods required for life in smaller doses. Ease of Use, Simply select from 1 jar (preventive) to 2-3 jars (therapeutic) Heart Technology per month. Eliminates pills, bottles and mistakes. Note: Other such products may contain trace minerals that limit the upper safe dosage. All statins - natural or artificial - lower cholesterol by blocking the same essential enzyme. In 1985, Harwood, et. al., discovered that ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is the human body's natural HMG-CoA redutase inhibitor, without the liver-destroying potential. When Vitamin C levels are low, the body compensates and manufacturEs more cholesterol. When serum levels are high, Vitamin C inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, which predictably lowers cholesterol. The product contains the proper high-dose Linus Pauling Therapy. The formula provides multiple gram amounts of vitamin C and lysine in the form Linus Pauling recommended. The formula also contains the amino acids proline, and arginine, the vitamins B6 and Folic Acid, the antioxidants vitamin E and vitamin A. Flavor is enhanced with the herb stevia. The product is a drink-mix to be combined with water (or juice); it supplies the equivalent of more than 16 ordinary vitamin pills and amino acid capsules as a pleasant tasting drink. Many customers tell us that they achieve beneficial effects using the Heart Technology drink that they can not achieve with equivalent dosages of the same ingredients separately in pill form. All Tower Orthomolecular formulas are completely non-toxic and designed to remain safe at high dosages. There is no known lethal dosage level (LDL) of either vitamin C or lysine Other nutritional products may contain trace minerals, such as selenium, manganese, copper, and other minerals. The Tower Heart Technology formula contains no added trace minerals. According to Pauling, "minerals, unlike the vitamins and amino acids, may be toxic over time at sustained high doses." 30 Servings per jar. 7173.2 mg powder per serving (or approximately 2 measured teaspoons) 215.2 grams ascorsine per jar. 1 to 3 jars per month is recommended. According to Linus Pauling on video: One jar provides 30 servings to last one month at the preventive dose. Two to three jars provides Pauling's recommended therapeutic dosage for persons with known heart disease. |
