Higher Nature H Factors
Homocysteine
and heart nutrients
 H
Factors is designed to help maintain homocysteine within normal
levels in the body, particularly as we grow older. It provides TMG
(tri-methyl glycine) plus three B vitamins and Zinc, each known to
assist this process.
Suggested intake:
Take 2-4 capsules a day, with a meal for 12 weeks, then maintain
at 1-2 capsules a day.
Two capsules typically provide:
750mg TMG (tri-methyl glycine),
15mg Vitamin B2, 50mg Vitamin B6, 400µg Folic acid, 500µg Vitamin
B12, 10mg Zinc.
No added:
Sugar, wheat, gluten, yeast, dairy products.
H Factors is suitable for Vegetarians and vegans
H Factors is a nutritional supplement designed
to help the body maintain a normal homocysteine level, particularly
as we grow older, by providing four B vitamins, Zinc and Tri-methyl
Glycine (TMG)
Homocysteine is a harmful amino acid produced
in the body. Normally the body rapidly converts homocysteine into a
harmless substance called cystathionine.
But smoking, getting older, running short
of B vitamins and drinking too much tea or coffee may reduce our ability
to keep homocysteine in our blood within the normal range.
Some scientists now believe that maintaining
homocysteine within the normal range helps maintain a healthy heart
and arteries.
Researchers have found that the body maintains
normal homocysteine levels when there are sufficient B vitamins, such
as folic acid and vitamin B12, in the daily diet, as these vitamins
are used in the biochemical pathways that break down homocysteine.
