Inflammation, Heart Disease and Stroke ---- MonaVie 2545203

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) December 4, 2009 -- How does inflammation relate to heart disease and stroke risk?

“Inflammation” is the process by which the body responds to injury or an infection. Laboratory evidence and findings from clinical and population studies suggest that inflammation is important in atherosclerosis (ath”er-o-skleh-RO’sis). This is the process in which fatty deposits build up in the inner lining of arteries.

C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the acute phase proteins that increase during systemic inflammation. It’s been suggested that testing CRP levels in the blood may be an additional way to assess cardiovascular disease risk. A more sensitive CRP test, called a highly sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) assay, is available to determine heart disease risk.

The American Heart Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a joint scientific statement in 2003 on the use of inflammatory markers in clinical and public health practice. This statement was developed after systematically reviewing the evidence of association between inflammatory markers (mainly CRP) and coronary heart disease and stroke.

Antioxidants fight acains inflamation and thus foods rich in antioxidants are recomended frequently for prevention aor sloving down the inflamatory process. foods that have antioxidants are fruits and vegetables. fish and fish oil olive oil are some well known antioxidant foods. Some frits are richer thanother or even have the beneficial oils as well. the one that is being recently discussed in the media and health authorities is Acai berry. it has 30 times more the antioxidants and has the omega oils as well. The product MonaVie designed by expert heath authorities (please refer to the list in the corporate web page for the full list of experts) containes acai berry along with other 18 health beneficial fruits. This way one can take these beneficial nutrients every day. the problem in our scociety is we eat fruits and vegetables. However, we don't take it consistently and therefore miss the benefits of them. The reason for that is simple we grab meals that are more convinient and just keep going. a two once shot in the morning and evening of monavie, where ever you are will provide you your daily fruits and vegetables.
