Vitamin K2 (as MK-7)

While you can’t see or feel what is going on in your arteries, it’s important to keep them in great shape. Think about the roads you drive on… If they are in bad shape, your entire car gets jolted. The same thing goes for your arteries. You want your arteries to be elastic and flexible so that they do the job of carrying your blood without any “potholes” along the way. One potential “pothole” is excess calcium, which has trouble finding its way to your bones and sometimes ends up in your arteries instead.

That’s why The Artery Pill^® CORE is built with Vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 is an essential nutrient — and yet many people have not heard of it. In fact, most multivitamin formulas do not include Vitamin K2. Unfortunately, Vitamin K2 is also hard to get from food sources, especially here in the United States. Fermented foods are generally the biggest source of Vitamin K2, and we are not very big fermented food eaters. That’s why if you are looking to support cardiovascular health with Vitamin K2, you may need to use a targeted supplement.

The Artery Pill^® CORE features Vitamin K2 as MK-7. This form of K2 has been shown in clinical studies to perform the important job of helping the calcium you consume reach your bones, instead of depositing in your arteries.* This in turn promotes flexible arterial structure, integrity, and elasticity — along with healthy circulation and support for blood pressure already in the normal healthy range.* And that means healthy blood flow throughout the body!*

S7^™

Clinical research — especially studies done during physical activity — has shown that nitric oxide production supports healthy circulation and blood oxygenation. However, nitric oxide should not be thought of as an exclusive need of athletes; it is important for daily cardiovascular health as well.

The Artery Pill^® CORE takes an advanced approach to nitric oxide production. We’ve included 50 mg of S7^™, a nitrate-free plant-based ingredient that blends blueberries, green tea leaf, turmeric root, cherries, and more. S7^™ has been shown in clinical studies to increase nitric oxide production by 230%!*

Vitamin D3

Vitamin D3 has been a newsmaker over the past decade for many reasons. Sadly, one of them is due to an average of 41% of American Adults being Vitamin D deficient in this essential nutrient, as reported in the scientific journal Nutrition Research. Another reason Vitamin D3 has been making the news is because research shows that it is vital to supporting heart health. The Artery Pill^® CORE provides a daily dose of 2,000 IUs of Vitamin D3, the potent and bioavailable form of Vitamin D.

Organic Blueberries

Blueberries are packed with antioxidants, including anthocyanins — which have been shown in recent studies to contribute to arterial health via antioxidant action.* The Artery Pill^® CORE provides 100 mg of Organic Blueberry Powder to support the cells and body tissue from the oxidative stress effects of free radicals.*
