❤️ Supplements to heart health

Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) are found naturally in fatty fish and are essential for heart and brain function. They lower triglycerides, support cognition and have anti-inflammatory effects. People who eat little fish benefit the most from supplementation.

CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10) is a substance found naturally in every cell and plays an essential role in mitochondrial energy production. Production decreases with age. Supplementation has been studied particularly in cardiovascular disease, fatigue and as a complement to statin use.

Resveratrol is a polyphenol found naturally in red grapes, red wine and berries. It activates sirtuins, proteins involved in cell health and lifespan regulation. Despite promising animal research, evidence in humans remains limited.

Magnesium is involved in over 300 enzymatic processes in the body. It helps with muscle contraction and relaxation, energy production, sleep quality and stress regulation. Deficiency is common and can cause muscle cramps, fatigue and sleep problems.

Vitamin K2 (menaquinone) ensures calcium ends up in the right place: in the bones rather than the blood vessels. It works synergistically with vitamin D3. Supplementation is particularly relevant for people who eat little fermented food or organ meat.
