Importance of cardiovascular health during the COVID era
Posted on: Jan 30

Clinical data but also popular media increasingly report about the higher risk of cardiovascular problems due to COVID-19 and RNA/DNA COVID-19 vaccines, especially in the younger generation. These concerns for cardiovascular and general health now include not only seniors but also the younger and physically active people and involve a shift from prevention of negative health outcomes and health maintenance to optimization of health. This aspect which appeals to the younger demographic is connected with areas like sports, performance and energy.


Still cardiovascular disease, the underlying cause of heart attacks and strokes, remains the number one cause of death. Also, cardiovascular problems often lead to the development of other health issues including impaired brain function, enhanced damaging effects of diabetes, and erectile dysfunction, among others. Therefore, finding a natural approach that can benefit your health and body is important.


If you are looking to prevent heart disease or improve heart function, the first approach is lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet and exercise. However, it is now more evident than ever that even a healthy diet will not provide all the nutrients we need, therefore targeted supplementation is important to fill in the gaps.


There are many supplements claiming to be heart-healthy such as omega-3 formulas, vitamin K2 as MK-7, chelated magnesium, and vitamin D. However, taking individual compounds, especially at random will not bring optimum results. Apart from getting good professional advice, science has shown that combined interventions are more effective than single nutrient effects.  Proper selection of nutrients with defined metabolic targets and their combination based on their interactions and synergy represents modern nutrition. This “nutrient synergy” approach introduced by us many years ago has been thoroughly tested in various health aspects, including cardiovascular health. Many of these nutrient combinations developed at the Dr. Rath Research Institute have been awarded US and International patents. Looking at the value of this approach you can see that many companies claim “synergy” on the labels of their products, however without any experimental proof.  


Proper supplementation is also increasingly recommended when taking certain drugs, such as for people on statins who supplement with CoQ10, omega-3 and others to further support heart health. Our study* showed that vitamin C has statin-related benefits as statins increase the risk of calcified plaques in the arteries – a risk for heart attacks. We have documented that in the presence of select statins the calcification process in vascular cells can be significantly curbed by vitamin C, in particular in its palmitate form. This is in addition to the essential role of vitamin C, lysine and proline in producing strong collagen – the basis of healthy, elastic arteries and optimal heart function.
