Trying BP-Rx by Re-3 to supplement my high BMI, hypertension, and cholesterol treatments

I am at the beginning of the road towards getting myself back into shape and back into health. Back in 2017, I got really sick and my heart went first into failure and then into afib. Now, I am healing and working on returning to a healthy weight and a heart, healthy without the assistance of cutting-edge, modern medications. 

I am currently doing an outreach on behalf of Re-3 which introduced me to their product, BP-Rx, an anti-aging supplement that uses natural ingredients that have been using around the world to naturally treat cardiovascular disease and kidney disease and hypertension, and high blood pressure—all the chronic diseases and comorbidities that make men my age not only extremely vulnerable to the Novel Coronavirus and COVID-19 but also to premature death, including stroke, heart attack, heart failure, and renal failure. I don't want any of those things. 

Jiaogulan Gypenosides, Arjuna Bark, and Grape Seed Extract make up BP-Rx

BP-RX is a natural supplement shown to lower blood pressure by reducing both systolic and diastolic pressures. Re-3 is a family-owned company with products that focus on cardiovascular health. If you could post a teaser on your site and social networks that would be amazing. BP-RX is a natural anti-aging supplement that has been shown to lower blood pressure by reducing both systolic and diastolic pressures. According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), the active ingredients in BP-RX are widely used in Chinese medicine. Jiaogulan has been used for treating hepatitis, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, but is also recently been shown to exhibit potent anti-cancer activities; grape seed extract has been shown to help maintain vascular elasticity and normal blood pressure, and arjuna bark has lowered systolic blood pressure and body mass index to a significant level and increased HDL-cholesterol without any deleterious effects on liver or kidney functions.

Superoxide Dismutase (SOD)

Superoxide dismutase is an enzyme that helps break down potentially harmful oxygen molecules in cells. This might prevent damage to tissues. It is being researched to see if it can help conditions where harmful oxygen molecules are believed to play a role in disease. SOD is one of the antioxidant proteins. SOD catalyzes the dismutation of superoxide anion to H2O2, which is subsequently detoxified to oxygen and water by catalase or GSH peroxidase. SOD does not bind to cellular membranes and is rapidly excreted from the kidney. SOD has powerful anti-inflammatory activity. For example, SOD is a highly effective experimental treatment of chronic inflammation in colitis. Treatment with SOD decreases reactive oxygen species generation and oxidative stress and, thus, inhibits endothelial activation. Therefore, such antioxidants may be important new therapies for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.

According to the American Heart Association (2020), there are 144 million adults in the US with high blood pressure. The Centers for Disease Control (2017) predicted that 90% of US adults 55 years and older will develop high blood pressure in their lifetimes. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the number one killer of women and men in the US (AHA 2020) and worldwide. High blood pressure is the initiator of:

• Heart Attack
• Stroke
• Atheroscelerois (hardening of the arteries)
• Congestive Heart Failure

• Kidney Disease
• Loss of Memory
• Premature Cardio- Vascular Disease
• Sexual Dysfunction

According to the American Heart Association (2020) – there are 108 million adults in the US with hypertension and 40 million with prehypertension. Bottom line - both groups' blood pressure is too high and puts them at risk for stroke, heart attack, congestive heart failure, atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries), dementia, kidney disease, and premature cardiovascular disease (CVD). CVD is the number one killer of women and men in the US and high blood pressure is the primary factor in these deaths – even more serious than smoking and high cholesterol.

These two groups comprise both genders and all age groups – even millennials (7%). The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) – recently predicted - 90% of adults in the US 55 years and older - will develop high blood pressure in their lifetimes. However – women are the primary users of BP-RX. Women are more concerned about their health and the health of significant others including – husbands, boyfriends, children, friends, etc., and will purchase/recommend BP-RX to these people. Females start to become more concerned with high bp around the age of 40. When women enter pre–menopause – their bodies start producing less estrogen. Estrogen has been shown to help protect women from CVD. The older they become – the less estrogen is produced – the higher the prevalence for high bp and CVD.

What makes BP-RX so unique in addition to its safe and effective benefits – is the anti–aging benefits provided by SOD. The Gynostemma (Jiaogulan) used in BP-RX – helps your body to endogenously produce SOD. You have the SOD summary. There is not another ingredient – pharmaceutical or nutritional – which has been clinically proven to increase SOD as high the SPECIFIC Gynostemma we use in BP-RX. Just a regular Gynostemma will not significantly increase SOD. We use a Gynostemma standardized to 98% gypenosides in BP-RX. This is a pharmaceutical-grade Gynostemma.

SuperOxide Dismutase: Impresssive Health Benefits

• Research conducted by Richard Cutler Ph.D. in the mid-1980’s at the Gerontology Research Center – at the National Institutes of Health in Washington D.C. – found that mammals (including humans) – that produced higher levels of SOD – live longer lives. Humans produce an average of 90 mcg/ml of SOD and live an average of 80 – years. Chimpanzees – our closest primate relatives, produce an average of 40 mcg/ml of SOD and live an average of 40 – years. Fruit flies – used in longevity research – bred to produce twice as much SOD as regular fruit flies – live twice as long as regular fruit flies. Cutler’s research suggests, a primary factor in mammals’ life spans can be traced to SOD levels.
• SOD levels decrease as one ages – which may lead to increased degenerative and inflammatory health problems
• SOD levels in humans vary by as much as 50% due to genetics – which may help explain why some people are more susceptible to disease – while others lead long disease – free lives. There is presently not a readily available test to measure SOD levels.
• Scientists have linked inflammation to many chronic diseases that accompany aging – including cardiovascular disease ,diabetes, obesity and cancer. White blood cells subjected to oxidative stress release the inflammatory compound Tumor necrosis factor a (TNF-a). Those treated with SOD, release the anti-inflammatory interleukin – 10 (IL-10). Studies show that those individuals who live to be 90 – years and older, have high blood levels of IL-10 in their bodies.
• A study published in Free Radical Biology and Medicine – found that high levels of SOD – inhibit cancer tumor growth and metastasis
• SOD is thought to be 3500x stronger as an antioxidant than vitamin C (Green tea is 100x stronger)
• In the largest human double – blind study conducted to date on SOD (by Dr. Liu) – 613 subjects – those study subjects using Gynostemma pentaphyllum found in BP-RX – increased their SOD levels between 116%-282% in 30 days. There is not a pharmaceutical or nutritional ingredient which has produced such impressive results!
