The combination of OPCs from Pycnogenol®, found in Isotonix OPC-3®, and curcuminoids, found in Curcumin Extreme™, may provide a useful regimen for those looking to take proactive steps toward supporting their vascular health or helping to maintain healthy levels of cholesterol and normal blood pressure with natural aging. Both have been shown to have powerful effects on blood cell activity and vascular health- metabolic function such as blood flow and promotion of vascular integrity and lymphatic vessel support. The dynamic combination makes them ideal choices for those looking to support their cardiovascular health or achieve various lifestyle goals- be it fitness and/or healthy aging. THE BODY OPC’s oligomeric proanthocyanidins are naturally occurring plant compounds found in a variety of foods including red grapes, apples, cranberries and pine bark extract. Research suggests they have antioxidant properties which have been linked with healthy circulation and vascular integrity. Pycnogenol, one of the richest sources of OPCs available today, has been clinically studied for its ability to support healthy cardiovascular function for over 40 years. Studies suggest that taking Pycnogenol regularly may help promote cardiovascular such as artery flexibility which helps maintain normal blood pressure levels , as well as promote healthy blood flow and oxygen within the cell, which may promote healthy endothelial function within the arteries and veins. Curcuminoids are another natural compound that may be beneficial for supporting healthy heart function. These phytonutrients are found primarily in turmeric root but can also be found in ginger root, oregano leaf and cinnamon bark. Curcuminoids have been shown to have properties that assist in maintaining a balanced response to metabolic changes due to aging, diet or daily activities. Curcuminoids can support endothelial cells which line the walls of your arteries and promote lipid levels within healthy ranges. Studies suggest that curcuminoids may also help promote the body’s response to neutralize oxidative stress which is a primary target in cardiovascular health and vascular integrity. OPCs work by supporting nitric oxide production which helps to promote blood circulation and support a healthy metabolic environment prone to ample blood flow, while also Curcuminoids are found in turmeric root and have been shown to provide various benefits to the cardiovascular system. In addition to promoting healthy blood cell aggregation, they may also help support lipid metabolism, healthy platelet activity, and endothelial function. These compounds have also been studied for their potential benefits on lymphatic drainage. Lymphatic vessels are responsible for carrying excess fluid away from tissues throughout the body and maintaining a proper balance between different parts of the body. These two compounds work together by filtering toxins from the body through both the lymphatic system and the organs of detoxifi...
