The heart is an incredibly powerful organ that works constantly, without ever pausing to rest. Unlike other types of muscles, the cardiac muscle never gets tired, but relies on a steady flow of oxygenated blood to keep working. In one day, the heart transports all of its blood around the body about 1000 times!
But the cardiovascular system is actually made up of a complex network of body parts, including the heart, blood vessels, the sinoatrial node and other smaller components-- all of which are key to the functioning of circulation. Other contributors to this process include the kidneys, liver and adrenal glands.
In order to ensure that the cardiovascular and circulatory systems are functioning to the best of their ability to enable healthy blood pressure, it’s important to take care of all of these components, and to improve and support overall cardiovascular health.
What is hypertension?
Hypertension, or High Blood Pressure, can be defined as the force that the blood exerts on the veins and arteries while it circulates around the body.
Blood pressure is controlled by a variety of organs and body systems, including the heart, the blood vessels, the kidneys, the brain and the adrenal glands, as well as the complex interaction between the body systems.
We measure blood pressure by using two different numbers - systolic pressure (the top number) over diastolic pressure (the bottom number). Systolic pressure measures blood pressure as the heart contracts and pushes blood through the arteries. Diastolic pressure is taken when the heart relaxes.
Normal blood pressure is around 120/80 or lower. It is important to note that blood pressure varies from person to person and can fluctuate from moment to moment. One or two high readings does not necessarily mean that you have hypertension or high blood pressure.
If your blood pressure has measured 140/90 or higher on at least two separate occasions, your doctor should recommend a 24 hour BP (blood pressure) monitor, which will show whether your BP remains chronically high. This will help to measure whether you have hypertension or high blood pressure.
What causes hypertension or high blood pressure?
Although the causes are not always known, high blood pressure often runs in families which indicates a strong genetic component.
Risk factors for high blood pressure include smoking, alcohol abuse, obesity, a high salt intake, lack of exercise and stress - and a family history of hypertension and stroke.
Arteriosclerosis, or a thickening, hardening and narrowing of the walls of the arteries is also often associated with high blood pressure.
How is hypertension or high blood pressure usually treated?
It is very important to take steps to control high blood pressure. If it is left untreated, it can result in heart disease or even stroke.
The good news is that high blood pressure can be well controlled by combining a healthy lifestyle with the correct medical treatment.
This can include synthetic prescription medication, natural remedies or a combination of both. If you are already taking prescription blood pressure medication, it is important to consult your doctor before making any changes.
There are a variety of prescription drugs available for high blood pressure including vasodilators, alpha-blockers, beta-blockers, diuretics, etc. Each has a unique way of working and different drugs may work for better different people.
You may need to try a variety before you find the right drug or combination of drugs suitable for you.
Like many synthetic drugs, anti-hypertensive medication has a risk of causing side effects depending on the person as well as the type of drug being taken.
These can include, dizziness, nausea, stomach problems, fatigue, impotence, insomnia, loss of appetite and others. Always speak to your doctor if you are experiencing any of these symptoms.
The natural way
Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the solid health of the heart and circulatory system. In more recent times, research has investigated these claims.
There are now a number of published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the cardiovascular system and to maintain normal range blood pressure (Leuchtgens H. Crataegus special extract WS1442 in heart failure. NYHA II. A placebo-controlled randomized double blind study. Drug Res 1993:3:352-4) Further studies have demonstrated the benefits of certain herbs in maintaining cardiac health and blood flow. (Hempel B, Kroll M, Schneider B. “Efficacy and safety of a herbal drug containing hawthorn berries and D-camphor in hypotension and orthostatic circulatory disorders/results of a retrospective epidemiologic cohort study” Robugen GmbH Pharmazeutische Fabrik, Esslingin-Zell 2005:55(8):443-50. PMID: 16149711)
Can I use High-Rite with my prescription medication for high blood pressure?
Yes, you can - but NOT without first consulting your doctor. These remedies are very effective in normalizing blood pressure and improving heart functioning.
Your doctor should monitor your blood pressure regularly while you are taking our remedies as it is possible that your prescription medication may have to be reduced or even stopped altogether.
If your doctor is not familiar with natural remedies or is unsympathetic towards your quest for a healthier alternative, seek a second opinion.
NOTE: Do not stop using your prescription medication without first consulting your doctor.
If I have high blood pressure but I am not on any prescription drugs can I take High-Rite?
Yes, of course! Using High-Rite, while following a healthy diet and lifestyle may completely normalize your blood pressure and remove the need for prescription drugs.
If you have mild hypertension, these remedies can also prevent problems in the future by acting as cardiac and circulatory tonics.

High-Rite is a 100% herbal formula that contains the following carefully selected herbs in therapeutic dosage, presented in a 100% veggie capsule:
Hawthorn
(Crataegus xyacantha) helps the body to adequately dilate blood vessels, thereby maintaining a healthy supply of oxygen and energy to the heart and facilitating normal pumping ability. Numerous recent studies have confirmed the benefits of Hawthorn on the health of the cardiovascular system. (Pittler MH, Schmidt K, Ernst E. “Hawthorn extract for treating chronic heart failure: meta-analysis of randomized trials.” Am J Med 2003;114(8):665-674.)
Passion Flower
(Passiflora Incarnata) has flavonoids which are compounds found in fruits and vegetables that have diverse beneficial biochemical and antioxidant effects, glycosides (that play numerous important roles in living organisms), alkaloids (that have pharmacological effects on humans) and saparin. Passiflora has stood up well to clinical studies on animals that support its traditional usage to assist in cardiac health. (Ichimura T, Yamanaka A, Ichiba T, et al. “Antihypertensive effect of an extract of Passiflora edulis rind in spontaneously hypertensive rats”. Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry. 2006;70(3):718-721)
Guelder Rose bark
(Viburnum Opulus) is known for its natural ability to relax muscles while supporting cardiac muscle health. (Nicholson JA, Darby TD, Jarobe CH. Viopudial, “A hypotensive and smooth muscle antispasmodic from Viburnum opulus”. Proc Soc Exp Biol Med 1972;40:457-61).
Maidenhair Tree
(Ginkgo Biloba) is highly prized for its medicinal properties in Chinese Traditional Medicine. One of the most important active ingredients, ginkgolide, has been clinically shown to be an effective cardiac muscle tonic. Recent studies have demonstrated this herbs ability to support cardiac health. (He M, Zhang XM, Yuan HQ. “Clinical study on treatment of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis with ginkgo extract” Dongfang Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, Beijing. 25(3):222-4. PMID: 15842142) Further studies have proven Ginkgo biloba as a natural antioxidant with regards to cardiac health (Shen J-G, Zhou D-Y. “Efficiency of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) in antioxidant protection against myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury”. Biochem Mol Biol Int 1995;35:125-134). (Akiba S, Kawauchi T, Oka T, Hashizume T, Sato T. “Inhibitory effect of the leaf extract of ginkgo biloba L. on oxidative stress-induced platelet aggregation”. Biochem Mol Biol Int 1998;Dec;46(6):1243-8)
