According to a research in Asia, the consumption of combination of red rice yeast and Nattokinase can greatly reduce the total fatty acid by 25% and bad fatty acid by 41% in the body, whose effect is stronger and more safe than using either one of them solely.

Ingredients

Red rice yeast

• Chinese people have consumed red rice yeast for thousands of years. Red rice yeast is produced from the fermentation process of steamed rice with yeast. It contains Monacolin-K which is acting as a bad fatty acid synthesis inhibitor. It suppresses the rate determining step of bad fatty acid synthesis by monitoring the activity of HMG-CoA reductase (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase) and inhibit mevalonic acid synthesis that eventually slow down fatty acid production, especially bad fatty acid.
• Red rice yeast can also produce superoxide dismutase (SOD), ribonuclease, α-galactosidase, pectinase enzyme, which is a very potent antioxidant.

Nattokinase

• Natto is a product of soyabean fermented by Bacillus Subtilis natto. Nattokinase is a special enzyme found in Natto can dissolve fatty and sticky substances in blood vessels. This improves the rate of metabolism, enhances the blood circulation, and excels a mild and sustainable blood-thinning property.

Co enzyme-Q10 (Co-Q10)

• Co-Q10 is an auxiliary enzyme. Many biochemical and physiological reactions of enzymes rely on the work of Co-Q10. The principle physiological action of Co-Q10 is to catalyse the phosphorylation of ATP in mitochondria, enhancing the energy supply system of our body cells. The cardio muscle continuously exercise to beat for about 100,000 times a day that requires an enormous amount of energy.
• There is a lower concentration of Co-Q10 in peoples with heart problems comparing to healthy individuals. (Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008)
• Co-Q10 is a lipid-soluble substance, which is transported between the cells by lipoprotein carriers such as LDL and HDL. Due to the potent antioxidant activity, Co-Q10 could prevent the lipoproteins from being oxidized and turned to harmful substances.

Deep Sea Fish Oil

• The fish oil in Heart Support Factor extracted from Japan deep-sea Tuna. In 2003, American Heart Association stated that the dietary intake of Omega 3 (DHA and EPA) can effectively help prevent cardiovascular problems and maintain a normal serum fatty acid profile. Omega-3 fatty acid (DHA and EPA) gives positive effects on individuals with cardiovascular problems. Deep Sea Fish Oil supplementation can improve cardiovascular health by lowering triacylglycerol level and bad fatty acids.
