Cardiovascular-supporting refers to any substance, treatment, or lifestyle factor that helps maintain the health and function of the cardiovascular system. The cardiovascular system includes the heart, blood vessels, and blood, and is responsible for pumping blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen and nutrients to cells and organs.
Examples of cardiovascular-supporting practices include regular exercise, a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, managing stress levels, getting enough sleep, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and taking medications as prescribed by a doctor to control conditions such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
Certain supplements and herbs may also have cardiovascular-supporting properties, although it’s important to talk to a healthcare provider before taking any new supplements or making significant changes to your diet or lifestyle.
