TriVita’s Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid

TriVita’s Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid 

TriVita’s Sublingual B-12, B-6 & Folic Acid can help you win the war against heart disease.

The B Vitamin Connection

If you are at risk for or have even been diagnosed with heart disease, you’re probably very concerned about your cholesterol level. You can hardly turn on your radio, pick up a magazine, or watch your television set without being bombarded, not only by information about cholesterol and heart disease, but also by hundreds of ads for prescription medications promising to lower your cholesterol.

But, cholesterol may have less to do with heart disease than you think.
Consider this: if heart attacks are caused by high fat, high cholesterol diets, why do many heart attack victims have normal cholesterol levels? 

Also, French cuisine is notoriously rich in fat and cholesterol, but the French have less than half the heart attacks that occur per capita in North America.

How can we explain that?
Highly regarded physician and scientist, Dr. Kilmer McCully asked himself the same thing.

Realizing that the cholesterol theory of heart disease had never been proven—even after 85 years of research—Dr. McCully began to look for a different explanation. Beginning in 1968 and continuing throughout his practice and professorship at Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. McCully developed a new scientific explanation for the cause of clogged arteries. His theory was revolutionary because it presented elevated homocysteine concentrations in the blood as the unrecognized cause of heart disease and arteriosclerosis.

What is homocysteine?

Homocysteine is an amino acid that occurs naturally in your body as it processes protein. According to Dr. McCully:

“When there is too much homocysteine in the blood, arteries are damaged and plaques form. The result is arteriosclerosis and heart disease. This happens when we don’t get enough of certain vitamins—namely B-6, B-12, and folic acid. These B vitamins are missing in our diets because processing and refining foods (think white flour, sugar, and canning) destroys these sensitive vitamins.”

The Heart Revolution by Kilmer S. McCully, M.D,
For many years, clogged arteries were thought to be the cause of heart disease, but the clogging itself only comes about as a result of the damage caused by homocysteine. The theory has been assessed in several scientific studies. 

The Physicians’ Health Study showed that, “Men with plasma homocysteine concentrations that were 12 percent above the upper limit of normal had approximately a threefold increase in the risk of myocardial infarction, as compared with those with lower levels, even after correction for other risk factors.”
