Did you know that in 2020, hypertension alone was responsible for more
than 670,000 deaths in the USA [1] ? Is it concerning that only 25% of this
population has figured out how to keep their blood pressure under control?
These statistics are undoubtedly related, and the trend appears to be
upward. At least, our editorial team thought until one company claimed to
have developed a solution addressing the root cause of hypertension.
Without further ado, here’s everything you need to know about Cardio
Shield.
What is Cardio Shield?
According to the ocial website, Cardio Shield is a natural blood pressure
supplement designed to address the underlying cause of high blood
pressure. By doing so, individuals should be able to regain control of not
only their blood pressure levels but also their overall heart health and
quality of life. This solution is considered equally eective for people in
their 40s, 50s, 60s, and even older. The latter certainly surprised us, so the
next logical step was to review the Cardio Shield function.
How does Cardio Shield work?
According to the ocial website, Cardio Shield was created to investigate a
“rogue blood pressure molecules#8221; that is said to cause blood vessels to
constrict. Surprisingly, this group of molecules has been linked to DNA
damage, decreased nitric oxide levels (and thus the body’s ability to absorb
nutrients), and elevated blood pressure levels. Worse, the tightening
prevents blood from pumping throughout the body. It turns out that the
culprit is known scientifically as the superoxide anion .
Our editorial team did some research to find out where the creators of
Cardio Shield were headed. As a result, we discovered a 2004 study [2] that
sought to determine the role of superoxide anion on hypertension and nitric
oxide in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Finally, the researchers
discovered that excessive superoxide production reduced the function of
nitric oxide, “resulting in a loss of blood vessel tone and hypertension.”
Furthermore, they contended that removing the culprit is the most likely
option for restoring blood pressure to near-normal levels. According to a
2019 study [3] , which also investigated the eects of superoxide anions
