Homocysteine Vitamin B12 & Folic Acid Sublingual - Helps to over comes the poor absorption of B12 through the digestive tract.

Homocysteine Elevation

The inner lining of blood vessels, known as the endothelium, is sensitive to irritation or abrasion. High levels of homocysteine have been shown to cause endothelial damage and thus initiate the atherosclerotic lesions that lead to heart disease.

Elevated Homocysteine levels are associated with a wide variety of other diseases including:

• Depression
• Multiple sclerosis
• Diabetes
• Birth defects
• Alzheimer's disease
• rheumatoid arthritis
• osteoporosis
• Lower Homocysteine levels
• Prevent Alzheimer's
• Prevent heart disease
• Prevent cardiovascular disease

Homocysteine is located at a junction of several key metabolic pathways in the body. It is an intermediate in the synthesis of cysteine from methionine. A deficiency of vitamin B-12, folic acid, and/or vitamin B-6 can block this pathway, causing buildup of toxic levels of homocysteine. Supplementation of these nutrients facilitates the pathway, reducing homocysteine levels.

Homocysteine, the Best Single Indicator of Whether You Are Likely to Live Long or Die Young

Staying healthy, happy, clearheaded and full of energy into old age - this is what we all want. But insuring that we do depends on how well we can "read" the state of our health. What if there was a single test that could do that, as well as point the way to a super healthy future? Fortunately, there is. This test measures your level of homocysteine, an amino acid that is found naturally in the blood.

High levels of homcysteine, or a high "H" score, predicts your risk of more than 100 diseases and medical conditions, including Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular disease, arthritis, cancer and depression. In fact, it is more accurate than a cholesterol reading for predicting the risk of heart attack or stroke.

HOMOCYSTEINE IS STRONG RISK FACTOR FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE
New England Journal of Medicine. 2002 Feb 14; 346:476-483

Subjects from the "Framingham Study" were examined over an eight-year period. Baseline homocysteine levels measured eight years earlier were examined in relation to those individuals who developed dementia on follow-up. The study concluded that an increased homocysteine level is a strong, independent risk factor for the development of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Alzheimer's nearly doubled in subjects with a high level of homocysteine. (Some researchers believe dementia begins many years before the symptoms become apparent. One HomoCysteine Control Spray™ daily starts lowering homocysteine now).

ALZHEIMER'S PATIENTS FOUND DEFICIENT IN B12 AND FOLATE
Journal of Gerontology and Biological Sciences, 1997 Mar; 76-79

This study showed that patients with Alzheimer's disease were deficient in both folate and B12 compared to age matched controls. (HomoCysteine Control Spray™ provides "ready-to absorb" patented Metafolin^®, identical to folate in green leafy vegetables, and B12+ a coenzyme that overcomes obstacles to absorbing B12).

HOMOCYSTEINE CONTROL SPRAY™ INSPIRED BY PROVEN MEDICAL RESEARCH

What follows is a brief summary of studies from the most respected medical and research journals in the world, and their citations. Read these reports and you will be convinced of the health risks posed by Homocysteine and the importance of taking the recommended ingredients in HomoCysteine Control spray™ everyday.

HIGHER RISK OF DEATH SHOWN WITH EVEN MILDLY ELEVATED HOMOCYSTEINE LEVELS

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1999 Sep 7; 131:321-330, 363-375, 387-388

Subjects with mildly to moderately elevated Homocysteine levels had a 30% to 50% higher risk of death that those with the lowest levels. A second study examined published research on Homocysteine levels and cardiovascular disease and concluded that Homocysteine is a significant risk factor for heart disease. (HomoCysteine Control spray™,  provides a regimen of B vitamins, effective in many research studies at lowering Homocysteine levels in the blood.)

VITAMIN B COST-EFFECTIVE IN PREVENTING BLOCKED ARTERIES
Journal of the American Medical Association, 2002 Aug 28; 288:973-979
The University of California at San Diego School of Medicine, in conjunction with the Swiss Cardiovascular Center, found that inexpensive B vitamins can prevent repeat blockage of the coronary artery after angioplasty. (These are the same B vitamins found in HomoCysteine Control spray™, in amounts research has shown to be effective.

70% OF ADULTS AT RISK FOR ELEVATED HOMOCYSTEINE
New England Journal of Medicine. 1999 Sep 16;341(12)

A medical researcher at Emory University asserts that "approximately 70% of the adult population in the United States is exposed to a risk factor for cardiovascular disease-an elevated plasma Homocysteine concentration-that can be easily avoided simply by consuming a B vitamin supplement." (HomoCysteine Control spray™,  is specifically formulated to LOWER Homocysteine). 

HEART DISEASE IN WOMEN CUT IN HALF

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1998 Feb 4; 279(5):359-364
Harvard University researchers tracked 80,000 female nurses over a 14 year period, and found that an intake of folic acid and vitamin B6, which was greater than the FDA's recommended daily allowance, cut the risk of heart disease in half.

NOTE: American Heart Association statistics from 1998 show more females die from cardiovascular disease than men. (HomoCysteine Control spray™,  contains the B vitamins used in the study as well as B12 that has also been shown to be highly effective in lowering Homocysteine). 

MAJORITY WITH ARTERY DISEASE HAVE NORMAL CHOLESTEROL
Dr. Kilmer McCully, The Homocysteine Revolution, 1999; 115-116
"Practicing physicians know, however, that the majority of their patients with arteriosclerosis have normal or desirable cholesterol levels in the 180-220 range."  

HOMOCYSTEINE SETS STAGE FOR SUBSEQUENT CHOLESTEROL DEPOSITS
McCully KS, Wilson RB. Homocysteine theory of arteriosclerosis. Atherosclerosis, 1975; 22:215-227

Homocysteine damages blood vessel walls and, says McCully, sets the stage for subsequent cholesterol deposits. 

STRONGEST RISK FACTOR FOR HEART DISEASE THAT CAN BE MODIFIED IS HOMOCYSTEINE

New England Journal of Medicine. 1997; 337:230-236
This report stated that Homocysteine was THE strongest modifiable predictor of overall mortality among patients with coronary artery disease. (HomoCysteine Control spray™,  is the simple daily spray that can modify Homocysteine in the blood).

Most people who have heart attacks do not have high cholesterol! That's because there's another major cause of heart disease: Homocysteine. Medical experts are convinced Homocysteine is as dangerous as cholesterol. Their studies have proven over and over that the lower your Homocysteine, the lower your risk of serious illnesses such as Heart Disease and Alzheimer's.
