Cardio B by Ortho Molecular Products
Cardio B by Ortho Molecular Products is a dietary supplement that contains high doses of folic acid, B12, B6, and trimethylglycine (betaine) to support the body's primary pathways of maintaining homocysteine balance. This product is designed to aid in the methylation process, a vitamin-requiring biochemical process in the body that is essential for maintaining mental and physical health. Methylation helps convert the potentially harmful amino acid metabolite homocysteine into the amino acids methionine and cysteine, and consistent recycling of homocysteine is necessary for sustaining cardiovascular health. Deficiencies of folic acid, B6, and B12 can inhibit proper methylation, and certain medications such as acetaminophen, aspirin, ibuprofen, and oral contraceptives can deplete blood levels of these essential B vitamins, thus reducing the body's methylation capacity. Cardio B is formulated to provide targeted amounts of these B vitamins to aggressively support methylation pathways and homocysteine recycling for optimal cardiovascular and arterial health. This supplement's unique combination of ingredients may help support cardiovascular and neurologic health, homocysteine balance, healthy arterial function, and a healthy inflammatory response.*Recommendation:
