THROUGH VASCULAR & CELLULAR NUTRITION!!! FACTS ABOUT VASCULAR & CELLULAR NUTRITION:
Supports energy, vascular and circulatory health; promotes a healthy cardiovascular system; enhances blood flow to support function of the heart, brain and other organs; and helps you wake up feeling rejuvenated. Through vascular nutrition, you can increase the production of Nitric Oxide, which “exercises” or expands your vessels, increasing their youthful elasticity. VASCULAR NUTRITION & YOUR HEALTH:
Why is vascular nutrition so important? Your vascular system, which is made up of arteries,
veins and capillaries, delivers oxygen-rich blood to cells throughout your body. Youthful, properly nourished vessels are flexible. This elasticity allows them to deliver a healthy flow of blood throughout the body, providing nutrition to your cells. HARDENING OF THE ARTERIES
As we age, the walls of our arteries may thicken and become rigid, while at the same time, deposits or cholesterol-laden plaques can build up along the lining of
the vessels. This process is called atherosclerosis, commonly known as “hardening of the arteries.” As the heart pumps blood through a now-smaller opening in the vessel, blood pressure rises and puts stress on the heart and other parts of the body. These are prime conditions for cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death in the United States. So how can you preserve the health of your vessels? Dr. Ignarro’s breakthrough research tells us that Nitric Oxide, a naturally occurring compound in your body, is the key to healthy vessels. And conversely, Nitric Oxide deficiency can contribute to serious ailments that typically occur with aging. In addition, Nitric Oxide is an important biological messenger that causes a cascade of benefits at the cellular level which can improve circulatory, immune- and nervous system function. CELLULAR NUTRITION:
Good Nutrition begins at the Cellular Level. Not only must the nutrients be delivered, but they must get to the appropriate cells of the body. These principles are the basis for CELLULAR NUTRITION. Cellular nutrition is the overriding nutritional philosophy of Herbalife International. Today, throughout the world, people are facing a lack of vital nutrients that their cells need for good health.

The understanding of Human Nutrition has evolved throughout history in parallel to the development of key sciences, including chemistry, biochemistry and physiology. NATURALISTIC ERA - 400BC - 1750AD. Hippocrates hypothesized about the body's "innate heat" and coined his famous phrase, "Let food be your Medicine and Medicine be your Food". CHEMICAL-ANALYTICAL ERA - 1750-1900. Highlighted by Lavoisier's calorimetry studies. He discovered how food is metabolized by oxidation to carbon dioxide, water and heat. BIOLOGICAL ERA - 1900-present. Was founded in advances in chemistry, biochemistry and understanding of the metabolic pathways. CELLULAR ERA - late 20th century (after 1955). focused on understanding the functions of essential nutrients and the roles of micronutrients (vitamins & minerals) as co-factors for enzymes and hormones and their subsequent roles in metabolic pathways. MOLECULAR & CELLULAR ERA - is developing in the 21st century. It has been spurred on by the sequencing of the human genome, but is not yet ready for application.. Here is the glimpse of the future as Herbalife International uses its high tech and International reach to change lives around the world.
