Cholesterol, Blood Pressure and Cardiac Support* (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)
In matters of the heart, preventing disease is the best plan.
CAIGUA is a fruiting vine plant that grows prolifically at higher mountainous valleys of Peru. The fruit, leaves and seeds are used for a variety of health and wellness needs and the CAIGUA plant resembles a cucumber in appearance.
CAIGUA FRUIT POWDER may be used as a holistic support and potential preventative for heart related diseases due to its antioxidant, polyphenol, flavo-glycoside complex and natural steroid and sitosterol compounds, which may work synergistically and nutritionally help support heart health, may help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and high blood pressure, while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol and may help remove plague and fatty build up from the arterial walls. (Yes, dogs and cats get heart disease just like humans do.) * As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system.
CAIGUA POWDER may also be used holistically to help address conditional needs related to hypertension and circulatory problems; may help reduce the risk of coronary and cardiac illness by helping regulate homocysteine levels directly linked to coronary heart disease. CAIGUA POWDER is used in South American herbal medical systems for the conditional needs of all types of Heart Disease, including Congestive Heart Disease (CHD), Cardiomyopathy, Valvular Heart Disease, Endocardiosis and Ischemic Heart Disease and Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, in dogs and cats.
CAIGUA POWDER may help maintain heart health and may help fortify the heart matrix for dogs and cats in the early phases of heart disease, used holistically in a traditional medical system as a disease preventative support for arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis. It may also help strengthen heart muscles; may help support the strength of veins and arteries and may help protect cell walls due to naturally occurring plant chemicals including luteolin, sitosterol, phytosterols, stigmadicin, stigmasterol, diosgenin, anti-inflammatories and anabolizers.
The secondary plant actions of CAIGUA POWDER may be used holistically to help promote cell healing for all parts of the body, but especially the heart and surrounding muscles; as a cognitive tonic to help promote healthy brain function; as a Probiotic digestive aid for gastrointestinal intestinal (GI) tract problems including Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Irritable Bowel Syndrome, particularly Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.
Due to the variety of healthy, natural plant chemicals in CAIGUA POWDER, when your dog or cat uses this product, it may also help deliver adaptogen immune boosting benefits as your pet's body needs (may help upregulate or down regulate immune response as needed.) It may help support balanced weight for obese animals because it attaches to bad lipids (LDL cholesterol) from the blood, ushering them out of the body. * As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system.
