AmealPeptide is a natural ingredient derived from nonfat milk. It consists of the two peptides Valyl-Prolyl-Proline and Isoleucyl-Prolyl-Proline that are naturally occurring substances also found in fermented dairy products, such as cheese and yogurt. However, it is difficult to consume enough of these foods on a daily basis to maintain normal blood pressure. What are the benefits of AmealPeptide? AmealPeptide has been evaluated in 14 double-blind and placebo-controlled clinical studies, which have shown that it is lowers elevated blood pressure and maintains it at healthier levels. How does AmealPeptide work? AmealPeptide helps control biochemical reactions that cause the constriction of blood vessels. The reduced constriction helps blood to flow more freely, which in turn can help keep blood pressure in a healthier range. Elevated blood pressure can be caused by various factors, one of which is a constriction of blood vessels triggered by angiotensin II. AmealPeptide acts as a natural inhibitor of this angiotensin .When the constriction is inhibited, elevation of blood pressure can be prevented and kept at a healthy level. Will AmealPeptide interact with prescription medications? No. Clinical studies have shown AmealPeptide to be safe and to have no interactions with other medications. In fact, over 300 million doses of AmealPeptide have been sold worldwide with no reports of side effects. Is AmealPeptide an approved drug? AmealPeptide is not a drug. It is a dietary supplement comprised of naturally occurring substances found in fermented dairy products such as milk and cheese. Does AmealPeptide cause side effects? Since 1997, more than 300 million doses of AmealPeptide have been sold worldwide, with no reports of side effects. In addition, a number of studies have been conducted showing that the product does not have side effects and that it does not cause toxicity even in large doses. Can people with lactose intolerance or milk protein allergy use AmealPeptide Yes. The product has been shown to be safe for those with lactose intolerance as well as those with milk allergies. Effect of powdered fermented milk with Lactobacillus helveticus on subjects with high-normal blood pressure or mild hypertension. Nattokinase- studies show nattokinase reduces systolic BP by up to 19 points and diastolic BP by up to 10 points. It also helps prevent blood clots from forming and dissolves existing blood clots, thus reducing risk of heart attack and stroke. Hawthorne This herb has been approved in Germany and Asia for mild heart insufficiency (poor blood flow to heart). It acts as a natural vasodilator (relaxes walls of blood vessels) and helps reduce blood pressure. In fact Hawthorne has been shown to increase coronary blood flow by 20-40%. L-Arginine More and more studies are being published showing the beneficial effects of L-arginine supplementation on blood pressure. L-Arginine administration, has been found to be useful in reducing elevated blood pressure, preventing and reversing atherosclerosis, in increasing coronary blood flow in heart disease patients, in alleviating intermittent claudication (blocked blood vessels), and in improving functional status of congestive heart failure (CHF) patients. Vitamin C Helps reduce blood pressure, elevate the good HDL, lower the bad LDL and total cholesterol, and protects from arteriosclerosis. Daily intake of vitamin c supplements has been shown to greatly reduce the risk of death from coronary artery disease. In one study daily supplementation of 1,000mg vitamin C reduced the risk of death from coronary artery disease by 42% for men and 25% for women. Calcium Several studies show that calcium supplementation lowers blood pressure. Magnesium Magnesium helps lower blood pressure. Up to 50% of those with high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease are deficient in magnesium. Grapeseed extract This potent extract contains powerful plant chemicals known as proanthocyanidins (flavonoids). Flavonoids have strong anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Grapeseed neutralizes free radicals, strengthens capillaries (small blood vessels), improves circulation to the extremities, and lowers the bad LDL cholesterol. 4 vegetarian capsules contain: AmealPeptide Hydrolyzed Casein Extract (milk).............. 710 mg (providing 5 mg of Valyl-Prolyl-Proline and Isoleucyl-Prolyl-Proline) Vitamin C .................................................. 250 mg (as magnesium and potassium ascorbates) Vitamin B-6 ................................................. 10 mg Vitamin B-12 (as methylcobalamin) .......... 500 mcg Folic acid ................................................... 800 mcg Calcium (as calcium citrate) ........................ 50 mg Magnesium (as taurinate/ascorbate) .......... 100 mg L-Arginine HCl ......................................... 150 mg Hawthorn extract (leaf and flower) ............ 250 mg (standardized to 1.8% vitexin-2- rhamnoside and hyperoside) Coleus extract (root) .................................. 125 mg (standardized to 10% forskolin) Olive leaf extract ....................................... 150 mg (standardized to 15% oleuropein) Nattokinase (NSK-SD) .......................... 500 FU Mega Natural BP grape seed extract ........ 150 mg Mega Natural BP is a trademark of Polyphenolics, a division of Constellation Wines U.S., Inc.
