COMBINED

Cardiovascular Disease in America• # 1 cause of death in world today is Hypertension
• It is a myth that heart disease affects mostly men - leading cause of death in women - 1 in 3 American women die of heart disease
• An estimated 80,000,000 American adults (1 in 3) have one or more forms of cardiovascular disease (CVD)
High Blood Pressure - 73,600,000. Heart Attack – 7,900,000 Coronary Artery Disease– 16,800,000 Stroke– 6,500,000 Angina Pectoris – 9,800,000

Onset of Cardiovascular Disease
• Cardiovascular disease can start DECADES before any symptoms are felt
• In over 50% of people with heart disease, the FIRST symptom they experience is a heart attack or stroke

Cardiovascular Disease• Atherosclerosis is the formation of plaques consisting of cholesterol and other substances on the arterial walls• Arteriosclerosis refers to several diseases in which the arterial wall thickens and loses its elasticity

Healthy Coronary Artery
Currently, an estimated 80,000,000 American adults (one in three) have one or more types of
cardiovascular disease

Artery with Atherosclerotic Plaque
A silent killer - In over 50% of people with cardiovascular disease, the FIRST symptom they
have is a heart attack or stroke.

Contributing Factors to Arteriosclerosis

Notice that Blood Pressure, NOT Cholesterol plays the biggest role in contributing to the advancing of arteriosclerosis.

High Blood Pressure is a symptom less
disease. You can have it and stillfeel fine!

What is a Heart Attack A heart attack occurs when
the blood flow to a portion of the heart muscle is blocked by plaque build up in a coronary artery and/or a blood clot.
This year an estimated 785,000 Americans will have a new coronary attack and about 470,000 will have a recurrent attack.

Medications Medications have side effects
Angioplasty Short term answer to a long term problem
Cause structural changes to the anatomy of the artery

The Answer Is All Natural
John P. Cooke, M.D., Ph.D.
“There is magic within all of us. It comes in the shape of a molecule known as nitric oxide. A substance so powerful that it can actually protect you from heart attack and stroke.
Best of all your body can make it on its own. Nitric oxide is your bodies best defense against heart disease. The body is capable of healing itself. What you do with the magic is up to you.”

The Discovery
Stockholm Sweden October 12, 1998
Three Americans won the Nobel Prize in medicine for discovering that the body uses nitric oxide gas to make blood vessels relax and widen. Associated Press

call the Miracle Molecule

Health
HeartArginineNitric Oxide is the messenger
molecule that the body uses to regulate the dilating of blood vessels. When that process is impaired, your health suffers.

What Is Nitric Oxide (“NO”)?
• Produced by the endothelial cell linings along 100,000 miles of blood vessels and capillaries in the human body
• Keeps blood vessels open, elastic and functioning properly
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
Is your Endothelium like Teflon or Velcro?
(Endothelium = blood vessel lining)
• A healthy endothelium is like “Teflon”, a smooth surface that enhances the flow of blood
• An unhealthy endothelium is like “Velcro”, causing plaque, white blood cells and platelets to stick to it
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
• The body needs to produce Nitric Oxide (NO) to keep vessels healthy, smooth and elastic.
• As we age, our body produces less and less Nitric Oxide
• L-Arginine greatly increases the amount of Nitric Oxide in the body
• Nitric Oxide restores the endothelium to its healthy normal function
L-Arginine is the Answer!
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
Normal Arterial Function
• Messenger Molecule released by endothelium and absorbed by smooth muscle of the artery
• The smooth muscle relaxes and the artery dilates to allow greater blood flow at reduced pressure
• Messenger Molecule (NO) produced from L-Arginine

L-Arginine Also Aids In:• Anti-Aging• Increased Immune System• Losing Weight • Increasing Muscle Toning• Better Athletic Performance• Quicker Wound Healing• Sexual Function• Improving Memory

Erectile Dysfunction in the vast majority of cases can be an early indicator of cardiovascular disease.
The discovery of Viagra stemmed from the same Nobel Prize winning research on Nitric Oxide that also has lead to the discovery of the importance of L-Arginine in NO production.

The ProArgi-9+ Story
Leave A Legacy
Own Your Health! ~ It’s YOUR time!
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
Dr. Joe ProArgi-9+ FormulatorDr. Joseph Prendergast is an accomplished scientist and researcher who has been a practicing Endocrinologist for over 35 years. He has treated over 7000 patients since 1991 with his L-Arginine therapy without a single heart attack or stroke. What is so amazing about this is that 85% of his patients are Diabetics.
2 out of 3 Diabetics die from heart attack or stroke -- Dr Joe has had ZERO deaths from heart attack or stroke!
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
Why ProArgi-9+ is the BEST supplemental L-Arginine Formula
• Highest quality Pharmaceutical Grade ingredients
• World class supplement manufacturer – Nature’s Sunshine
• Highest grade ingredients from pure vegetarian sources
• No synthetics are used in ProArgi-9
• The L-Arginine used in ProArgi-9 is called pure elemental most l-Arginine supplement products are called Arginine HCLArginine HCL is usually synthetic not pure elementalArginine HCL does not produce the same results as ProArgi-9

Ingredients of ProArgi-9+L-Arginine Vitamin D3L-Citrulline Vitamin B6 Vitamin B12Pomegranate (True Fruit) Red Wine Extract Ribose Vitamin K2Folic AcidXylitol

The formula is the result of 20 years of clinical practice and research by Dr. Joe
The “Gold Standard” Ingredients of ProArgi-9+
• L-Arginine: a vital amino acid that plays a role in a number of physiological functions in the body, but is best known for its cardiovascular benefits.
•. L-Citrulline: no L-Arginine product works effectively without it. L-Citrulline extends the life of L-Arginine for 24-36 hours in the body instead of the normal life of L-Arginine alone of 20 minutes to 1 hour
. Ribose: is extremely effective in strengthening the heart muscle and a powerful anti-aging supplementRibose has been found to improve fatigue, stiffness, cramping and tight muscles.

Vitamin D3: has been called the miracle nutrient of the century
• It aids in calcium absorption, healthy cardiovascular functions and supports healthy inflammatory response.
• Vitamin D3 is excellent for bones, and strengthens the immune system
• It is known be a mood enhancer- fighting depression; and improves digestion and food absorption.
• Vitamin D3 contributes towards the prevention of 96% of known cancers.
• Children born of mothers with high Vitamin D deficiency levels throughout pregnancy show a much higher rate of autism related conditions.
• 4 out of 5 people are Vitamin D deficient
The “Gold Standard” Ingredients of ProArgi-9+
www.mypersonalbesthealth.com
The “Gold Standard” Ingredients of ProArgi-9+• Pomegranate: good for calming the prostate and stomach. It contains superior antioxidants, promotes arterial lining strength, and enhances nitric oxide (NO) production from L-arginine
• Vitamin C, vitamin K, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, folic acid
• Xylitol: a natural sweetener and a blood stabilizer for diabetics, as well as affecting and reducing sugar cravings. Bone density is increased by Xylitol; and it contributes to weight loss.

In summary:• The body needs to produce Nitric Oxide (NO) to keep vessels healthy, smooth and elastic.
• As we age, we naturally produce insufficient amounts of NO
• L-Arginine greatly increases the amount of NO in the body
• Taking ProArgi-9+ daily will increase NO and melt away plaque and fatty deposits in your arteries and veins.
• ProArgi-9+ will also make your vessels more youthful and elastic.
• ProArgi-9+ can reverse cardiovascular disease
