Cardio Booster is a synergistic formulation, particularly rich in potassium and magnesium, two minerals that help to maintain normal blood pressure. It contains the best natural ingredients for helping to maintain a healthy heart.
Who is Cardio Booster for?
Offering a wealth of ingredients with synergistic potential, Cardio Booster is aimed at several groups of people:
-
those with hypertension;
-
those at risk of cardiovascular problems;
-
those lacking in potassium and/or magnesium ;
-
those who regularly eat too much salt;
-
those who often eat ready-meals;
-
those who feel tired every day;
-
and in general, those over 50.
What is in Cardio Booster?
Cardio Booster combines micronutrients such as magnesium, potassium and hawthorn extract which support normal heart function. It contains:
-
Co-enzyme q10. Closely-related to vitamin K, coenzyme Q10 (coQ10) is found throughout the body (hence its other name ‘ubiquinone’ from ‘ubiquitous’). It’s essential for all physiological processes that require energy expenditure, and is unsurprisingly abundant in the heart.
-
A dry hawthorn extract, standardised to 5% flavones. This plant extract, held in high regard by doctors in ancient Greece, is widely recognised today for supporting cardiovascular function. Scientific studies validating its use have highlighted its ability to normalise cardiac contraction, and circulation and oxygenation of the heart (1).
-
Magnesium. Though mainly present in the teeth and bones, magnesium is active in every cell in the body. It is particularly important for relaxing the muscles in general, giving it a key role in regulating heart rate and muscle relaxation.
-
Potassium. Like magnesium, is essential for muscle contraction and good cardiac muscle function. It also helps to maintain normal blood pressure.
-
Vitamin B12. It plays a role in countless cellular and physiological mechanisms, but its main benefit in this supplement is its ability to normalise the formation of blood cells.
-
Carnitine. This is a totally natural substance which plays a key role inside the mitochondria, the powerhouses in cells which produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). It is this energy which serves as fuel for the muscles, and in particular, the heart.
-
Taurine, beta-sitosterols and lignans. To complete this truly comprehensive formulation.
5 good reasons to take Cardio Booster
-
In 2015, an estimated 18 million deaths were attributable to cardiovascular disease, that’s 31% of total global mortality.
-
Half of all people in Europe and the US have worryingly low levels of magnesium (2).
-
Heart failure occurs when the heart’s pumping action is no longer strong enough to circulate the blood properly. It is the end result of all heart disease. Incidence is rising all the time as a result of the growing ageing population in the West and the increase in cardiovascular problems.
-
The majority of cardiovascular problems can be prevented by addressing behavioural risk factors (smoking, poor diet, micronutrient deficiencies, excess weight, a sedentary lifestyle and alcohol abuse).
-
Cardio Booster has been developed based on the latest scientific findings: the amounts and forms of the substances included have not been chosen at random.

Panax notoginseng is a variety of the famous ginseng, regarded as a source of ‘vital energy’ and known for increasing strength and blood flow. Though they sound similar, notoginseng is distinct from classic ginseng. Its exceptional properties have led to the launch of a number of major nutritional supplements.
What is Notoginseng?
Notoginseng is part of the Araliaceae family native to China’s Guangxi and Yunnan provinces where it occupies a special place in traditional Chinese medicine: its benefits manifest primarily in the liver and stomach meridians. It is used for treating problems related to circulation, bleeding (internal and external haemorrhage), haematomas and coagulation problems (improving blood flow).
It often features in first aid kits for healing wounds: when applied as a poultice to the affected area, it can relieve pain and stem bleeding. It is also one of the ingredients in Zheng Gu Shui, a recognised preparation in the Chinese pharmacopoeia, used for improving the circulation, boosting energy, reducing inflammation, relieving pain, accelerating healing and helping to regenerate damaged tissue.
What are the properties of Notoginseng?
Historical use of notoginseng has provided empirical evidence of its virtues, but today, its effects can be explained scientifically. They are related to its high content in a specific fatty acid called trilinolein, and in particular, to its ginsenosides and notoginsenosides.
These are saponins unique to the ginseng species. There are several types: ginsenosides Rb1, Rg1, Rd, Re and Rb2. Research has yet to uncover all their secrets but they are thought to act in two ways: by altering cell membrane properties and by potentially binding to steroid hormone receptors.
Whichever is the case, scientists have already demonstrated their effects on the cardiovascular, immune and nervous systems (showing remarkable benefits for cognitive decline). Over the last few years, researchers have also observed anti-proliferative, neuroprotective and antioxidant properties.
When should you consider supplementing with ginseng?
While notoginseng has many benefits, some deserve special attention. Notoginseng can thus be effective in the following cases:
- Cardiovascular and circulatory problems involving blood stasis – the accumulation of blood as a result of obstruction to blood flow (such as in thrombosis, or a mechanical fault which prevents it from being pumped back in the veins).
- Coronary artery damage, history of myocardial infarction and associated consequences.
- Raised blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
- Retinitis or optic nerve atrophy.
- Palpitations, congestion and bronchial pain.
- Haemorrhagic, gastrointestinal, chest cavity, nasal, bladder and uterine problems. Notoginseng can also be combined to good effect with other plants such as ginger, rehmannia or astragalus root.
- Trauma of various kinds, in terms of both pain and recovery.
