Bios Life™ Study Produces a Decreased Risk for Cardiovascular Disease in African Americans
Georgia residents dramatically improve their lipid parameters using Bios Life

As a first line defense against heart disease, 85 members of the Zion Missionary Baptist Church in Roswell, Georgia participated in a three-month health project this spring to naturally optimize their cholesterol levels using Bios Life. The project was endorsed by Dr. William Cooper, Medical Director of Cardiovascular Services of Wellstar-Kennestone Hospital.

Each of the study participants added Bios Life to their diet, twice daily, for the 12-week duration of the health project. At the end of three months, participants that were at higher risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) successfully lowered their LDL (bad cholesterol) levels by an average of 19% and triglyceride levels by an average of 41%.

Participants further reduced their risk for heart disease by increasing their HDL (good cholesterol) levels by an average of 32%. Using risk calculations obtained from the Framingham Heart Study, participants in this study effectively decreased their 10 year risk of CVD by 36%.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), African Americans living in the southern region of the U.S. are at greatest risk for heart disease, the leading cause of death in the country.

The foremost risk factors for cardiovascular disease are high LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglyceride levels. The latest insights in lipid management, however, indicate that low HDL (good cholesterol) may be even more important in predicting CVD risk. The CDC Division of Heart Disease and Stroke prevention recommends controlling cholesterol as the most effective way to decrease risk for heart disease.

Conventional intervention focuses on lipid lowering medication, such as statins. These drugs are effective in lowering LDL, but have limited success for increasing HDL. Moreover, they have been linked to side-effects, such as liver and muscle problems. For many people, these side effects are a reason to look for safe clinically proven natural alternatives.

Bios Life provides a natural, side effect-free option for individuals who are at risk for heart disease and who are unable or unwilling to use statin medications for cholesterol control. Bios Life combines viscous soluble fiber, policosanol and phytosterols to safely optimize cholesterol by minimizing cholesterol absorption in the intestinal tract, regulating cholesterol created by the liver and enhancing enzymatic breakdown of cholesterol in the body.

Introduction to Cardiovascular Disease

Cardiovascular disease is a broad, all-encompassing term that refers to diseases of the heart and circulation and is the number one killer of North Americans, both male and female. Despite what its name may suggest, it’s not actually a particular condition or disorder in itself. Rather, cardiovascular disease is a collection of diseases and conditions.

Diseases of the Heart
The diseases and conditions affecting the heart are collectively known as heart disease. The heart consists of a muscle that pumps blood, arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle, and valves that ensure that the blood within the heart is pumped in the correct direction. Problems can arise in any of these areas.

Like cardiovascular disease, heart disease is a term that's somewhat loose and broad, and it's often used that way.

Here are the specific types of heart disease:

Diseases of the Blood Vessels
Blood vessels are essentially hollow tubes that carry blood to the organs and tissues throughout your body. The four basic types of blood vessels are:

Blood vessels have many layers and a complex mechanism of action to keep blood flowing to all of your vital organs. Despite that big responsibility, you probably don't pay much attention to your blood vessels — until something goes wrong, that is.

Here are some types of blood vessel disorders:

Three of the most common cardiovascular diseases that we refer to at Unicity are coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis, and congestive heart failure.

Coronary Artery Disease
These are diseases of the arteries that supply the heart muscle with blood. Coronary artery disease is one of the most common forms of heart disease and the leading cause of heart attacks. It generally means that blood flow through the coronary arteries has become obstructed. The most common cause of such obstructions is a condition called atherosclerosis, a largely preventable type of vascular disease. Coronary artery disease can lead to other heart problems, such as chest pain (angina) and heart attack (myocardial infarction).

Arteriosclerosis and Atherosclerosis
Arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis are conditions in which the walls of your arteries become thick and stiff. This can sometimes restrict blood flow to your organs and tissues. The process of this thickening and stiffening is arteriosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the most common form of arteriosclerosis. Although the two terms are often used interchangeably, atherosclerosis refers to hardening of the arteries caused by accumulation of fatty deposits (plaques) and other substances. The heart is one of the organs commonly affected by atherosclerosis. When the arteries of the heart (coronary arteries) narrow, you may experience chest pain or a heart attack.

Congestive Heart Failure
When you have heart failure, it doesn’t mean that your heart has stopped beating. It means that your heart isn’t pumping blood as it should. The heart keeps working, but the body’s need for blood and oxygen isn’t being met. Heart failure can get worse if it’s not treated. If you have congestive heart failure, you’re not alone. About 5 million Americans are living with it today. In fact, it’s one of the most common reasons people 65 and older go to the hospital. Heart failure symptoms usually develop over weeks and months as your heart becomes weaker and less able to pump the blood that your body needs. Heart failure usually results in an enlarged heart—specifically the left ventricle.
