The Best Heart Medicine You May Never Hear About

You may not wonder why...heart related health issues abound in the modern world. Drug companies, doctors and hospitals around the country make a killing on procedures and prescriptions that abound around heart ailments. When the coverage of recent research into heart health neglects to mention how easy it is to eliminate most heart problems, one wonders not so much why, but how can a relatively small number of heart surgeons, hospitals and general practitioners be led away from a safe route to heart health for all? Here is the problem. It cuts into profitability for the existing health care system. You would think that when someone wins the Nobel Prize for Medicine, discussions would soon follow and that their cutting edge research would spread like wildfire. Instead, what has happened is a sort of witch hunt and shunning, the likes of which have been seen throughout the "development" of the entire medical model that we rely on for our "healthcare".

The Nobel Prize for medicine in 1998 was conferred upon Dr. Louis Ignarro for his work on mice, a common species for use in the medical research field because of their similarity to humans and easy of use for studies. his findings were based on reducing the incidence of atherosclerosis or "hardening of the arteries". what he showed was that there are therapeutic doses of  Arginine and antioxidants that could reduce or eliminate this condition. His findings have been proven out and his research has led him to even better combinations that achieve the same or better results. The lack of interest in this important work only proves how out of step with human beings the medical establishment has become. Now, nearly fifteen years after the work was first published, medical professionals and trade associations are trying to make this honorable doctor out to be some kind of loose cannon, jeopardizing the health of millions through deception and deceit.

In fact, there are dozens of places you can go to get a mix of two basic amino acids that combine to lead to heart health, but the gatekeepers of our for profit system don't want you to know about it. The initial studies were done comparing Arginine alone and in combination with anti-oxidants like vitamins C &E. There are ongoing studies that combine Arginine and citrulline, but the facts are clear, heart disease can be reduced or eliminated through use of these combinations to improve health. Oddly, this doctor has been chastised for trying to get the very products he knows have the power to help people out of the lab and into the hands of the general public. How many have to die or go through unnecessary operations before the AMA or American Heart Association will see the light? It is like the question, "How many stagehands does it take to change a light bulb?" doctors ask..."How many do you have?"

If I were to develop a method that saved lives, contributed to higher quality of life at far less cost, you know I would be all about sharing it with others. that is what good people do! In fact, most of what I write is directed toward that goal. Living better for less cost has been my mantra since the early seventies, my movies were about that, my writings have been about that as well. I'm just glad that I'm not a doctor making money off the fact that people who do what I have found to work. If I were, I'm sure that I would be under attack by the health care big wigs.

Now, as you know, much of the data that we can find online is to be suspected as hearsay until it can be proven through thorough research and vetting of sources, but what I know for sure is that there is a product by Herbalife, (who I do not encourage folks to buy from)  called Nightworks. It is a combination that was developed by the good doctor Ignarro himself. When I first heard about this regimen, I thought what hooey, but after looking into it more, I am convinced and now take five grams of Arginine and 3/4 gram of Citrulline nearly every day. I already take vitamin C, D and E as a matter of course. My father had a heart attack at a time in his life that I thought it was "way too young" and for all those I know who were "given a new lease on life" through invasive surgery, I now know that many more can be spared the debilitating recovery and the staggering cost of the preferred methods of treatment if they just knew what they could do to improve their own health.

It is not fair to think that we have the power to judge why medical associations and groups would refute new information, but after over a dozen years of waiting for the public to be served by those we entrust with our heart health, the time may be here to take our own steps to take care of our own bodies. The good doctor Ignarro waited five years before using his formulation of amino-acids and antioxidants through the supplement marketplace, I say great. Understand too that his "interest" in the product is 1% of sales. rather than getting rich on the product, he seems to be trying to share his research with the masses the best way he knows how. As for myself, I have worked out dosages based on good judgement and quality products from other sources.

To your health!
