CardioTen
The Essence of Our Health
Amkey is proud to present its newest product, CardioTen. A product of the most advanced scientific research, CardioTen has been especially formulated to promote and support cardiovascular health.
Cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of the human race. One out of five people suffer from some form of cardiovascular-related disease, such as high cholesterol, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure and heart dysfunction. Cardiovascular disease is a serious threat to people's quality of life.
Comprised of plant extracts and vitamins that are especially effective in protecting the full spectrum of our cardiovascular health, CardioTen may effectively maintain proper lipid metabolism, thus reducing the risks of high cholesterol and serum lipid levels. The ingredients have also been shown to protect blood vessels, which in turn help to prevent the further development of atherosclerosis.
CardioTen is the result of many years of extensive research. A U.S. patent application for CardioTen has been submitted and U.S. technology patents for the preparation of CardioTen's main ingredient, pomegranate synergy, have already been obtained.

Background:
According to the American Heart Association, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the number one killer of men and women in the United States since 1990. Billions of dollars are spent each year in the care and treatment of CVD and yet this disease continues to seriously threaten the long-term quality of our lives. It is becoming more and more obvious that conventional treatment is not enough.
CVD has many forms, all of which stem from basically one condition, which is atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a hardening of the arteries resulting mostly from plaque buildup along the artery walls. Cholesterol is one of the main components of plaque and there are different kinds of cholesterol. The most commonly known types are HDL, LDL and triglycerides. Excess LDL, commonly known as the “bad cholesterol,” forms the plaque that builds up in the arteries. One of the main functions of HDL or the “good cholesterol” is to remove the excess LDL and carry it back to the liver to be reprocessed. Without an adequate amount of HDL, LDL continues to build along the edges of the arteries causing them to narrow and lose elasticity, restricting normal blood flow through the arteries. In acute cases the plaque can rupture, forming blood clots that completely block the passage of blood through the artery. Most times this results in a heart attack or stroke. Other more chronic problems that may occur from atherosclerosis are angina, heart failure, shortness of breath, edema, and fatigue.
Dr. Ephraim Lansky with the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology - home of Israel’s Nobel Prize winning scientists - has done extensive research on the pomegranate and its effect on cardiovascular disease. Dr. Lansky received his medical doctorate from the University of Pennsylvania and was the first scientist to link the benefits of the pomegranate to cardiovascular health.
This beneficial fruit, the pomegranate, is one of the main ingredients in Amkey’s CardioTen, and is processed according to a patented technique by Dr. Lansky called “PomeSynergy.” This process combines the juice, leaf, peel, and oil from the seed of the pomegranate, extracts the sugar, and leaves only the beneficial nutrients. This is important because sugar, even natural sugar, inhibits the absorption of many nutrients making them less available for our body’s use.
The powerful combination of ingredients in CardioTen is the result of years of research conducted by Dr. Lansky. Dr. Lansky has published over 10 research papers on the pomegranate and the prevention and further damage of cardiovascular disease and cancer. He has also acquired 5 patents pertaining specifically to the pomegranate formulations. The Journal of the National Cancer Institute, a well-known U.S. medical journal, and America’s National Cancer Research Institute Bulletin have both printed special reviews of Dr. Lansky’s research work giving it high marks and positive acknowledgement.

Functions of Major Component
PomeSynergy is a patented product that consists of the pomegranate’s juice, leaf and peel, as well as oil from its seeds. It contains a high concentration of powerful antioxidants called flavonoids. These antioxidants are specific to the protection and repair of the cardiovascular system. The pomegranate contains phytoestrogens which help lower cholesterol levels. It has also been found to decrease the risk of certain cancers, such as skin, breast, and colon cancer. The therapeutic uses of the pomegranate have been known for almost 3000 years. In Greek mythology the pomegranate represents life and regeneration.
Red yeast rice has been used by the Chinese for thousands of years. It is used not only for its medicinal purposes but also to preserve and enhance the flavor of food. It has been shown to reduce LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol by balancing the metabolic processes of the liver. Its use has also decreased triglyceride levels for some. Red yeast rice has also been found to be beneficial as a digestive aid for gastric problems, blood circulation, and spleen and stomach health.
Co-enzyme Q10 is classified as a vitamin and yet functions as an enzyme. It is a powerful antioxidant that is produced naturally by our body, and is an electron carrier that is important in generating ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy in the mitochondria. It is especially useful in increasing the pumping action and electrical functioning of the heart muscle. Many symptoms such as shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, and high blood pressure have decreased when the heart cells are supplied with more electrical energy.
B vitamins are an integral part of red blood cell production, thus making them vital for cardiovascular health. Red blood cells are saturated with oxygen which nourishes our cells as they travel throughout the bloodstream. The combination of Vitamin B6, B12 and folic acid helps to lower homocysteine levels in the body. Homocysteine is a metabolite which may cause atherosclerosis by damaging the inner lining of arteries and promoting blood clots.
