Produktinformationen

The natural companion for a healthy heart

The comprehensive Blood Pressure* Complex from Unimedica is a daily dose of powerful heart support. The carefully selected and matched ingredients complement one another and act synergistically to support the normal function of the cardiovascular system.

The rich composition of minerals, vitamins, coenzyme Q10, amino acid L-arginine and valuable plant substances such as olive leaf extract, nattokinase and grapeseed extract is contained in a plant-based capsule. These ingredients are selected with the goal of stabilising blood pressure and supporting nutrition for optimal blood pressure.

So the entire circulation runs like clockwork

Potassium* in particular contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure whereas vitamin B1 (thiamine)* supports normal heart function. Magnesium* stabilises the electrolyte balance and has a relaxing effect on the blood vessels. It supports normal muscle function including the heart muscle. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)* supports normal collagen formation for the normal function of blood vessels.

In addition vitamins B6 (pyridoxine)*, B9 (folic acid)* and B12 (cobalamin)* support homocysteine metabolism. They play a role in ensuring that there is no excess formation of homocysteine, which is deposited in the blood vessels – reduced diameter of the blood vessels leads to high blood pressure. Together with vitamin C they strengthen the body's defences and contribute to blood formation.

Which foods also contain these ingredients?

Fruit and vegetables are rich in vitamin C, whereas wholegrain products and pulses are rich in vitamin B. Potassium is found in a number of foods, including meat, fish, fruit and vegetables. Magnesium is found in foods such as nuts and seeds, wholegrain products and green leafy vegetables.

Support for the body in challenging times

Plant-based substances and those that can be produced by the body, such as L-arginine and Q10, are added to the Blood Pressure* Complex to round it off. For example, the amino acid L-arginine encourages the body's own production of nitrogen monoxide, which expands the vessels, so lowering blood pressure.

Why can it make sense to take this Blood Pressure* Complex?

Although these nutrients are found in food or are (to some extent) made by the body itself, it can sometimes be difficult to obtain sufficient amounts via daily nutrition, especially in times of increased need or if there are special dietary restrictions. Blood Pressure* Complex from Unimedica can be a sensible addition to secure the uptake of these key nutrients.

*fantastic*perfect for me*
I kept having 2-3 hypertensive episodes a year, which landed me in hospital... The prescriptions then recommended more medication, higher doses, nothing changed for the better, on the contrary: there were antihypertensive drugs that caused my blood pressure to rise... I was insecure, soon stunned, exhausted by my poor physical condition and desperately looking for help to get out of this terrible 'pressure'.... Ashwaghanda and the blood pressure complex remedy help me to heal... in addition to just a 'pharmaceutical tablet' in the morning... My new average blood pressure is 130:87 ... that makes me really happy :-)) PS: I'm 62 and that makes it all the more wonderful! Thank you! Simply thank you!

A good natural blood pressure remedy.
I have always had high blood pressure. I took Candesartan for many years. My blood pressure was in the green zone, but unfortunately I also had a lot of side effects from the drug. I was looking for a natural alternative. I tried a few things, but nothing helped. I wanted to give it another try and came across Narayana Blood Pressure Complex. To cut a long story short, after 5 days of regularly taking 1 capsule in the morning I had good blood pressure again. I have been taking Blood Pressure Complex for over a year now and measure my blood pressure daily. Everything is fine. I am more than satisfied. And best of all, no side effects like before. I feel very comfortable with it.

Great product
Since I have been using these capsules, my blood pressure has normalised again. I am very happy about that. Unfortunately, I couldn't tolerate conventional tablets. They don't solve the causes, but create new problems. Especially recommended for blood pressure fluctuations caused by thyroid disease.

Unbelievable but it seems to work
I tested the preparation. After only 4 days I noticed a reduction in the BP values with a simultaneous reduction in the sartan dose. Even after 3 weeks, the BP value is stable within the normal range. Medication: 2 capsules in the morning, 2 capsules in the evening

I already had very high blood pressure and these capsules provide great support, so that I was able to reduce my conventional antihypertensive medication. But still measure regularly and of course pay attention to your diet

Lowered blood pressure
My husband originally had a blood pressure of 190 / 110, he could not tolerate the tablets from the doctor, he took them very irregularly at first. Since January he has been taking them morning and evening, after 3 weeks his blood pressure was already at 150 / 90, after another 3 weeks at 135 / 85, we are very satisfied, he continues to take them regularly and feels good.

Not for me
So these blood pressure tablets are not suitable for me, it's a shame that I bought the economy pack. I had not read any information in the other reviews that anyone else had experienced such side effects. Unfortunately, these capsules have become unusable for me, which is a shame because one jar has not yet been opened and the other is missing three capsules. Even herbal remedies sometimes have negative effects. Apart from that, I have been satisfied with the goods I ordered so far. It's a shame that I let myself be influenced by this advert.

In order to regulate blood pressure and no longer be dependent on medication to lower blood pressure, we tested the preparation. After just a short time, our blood pressure was at a healthy level and our well-being was back to normal, even without medication. What more could you want? Absolutely recommendable!

Lowering blood pressure
Blood Pressure Complex is a very well-designed dietary supplement that has definitely lowered my blood pressure. In my opinion, the ingredients are also useful for all people of an advanced age, even if they do not have high blood pressure. I can only recommend it to anyone.

very effective
this product has enabled us to stop taking medication, with blood pressure equivalent to or even slightly lower than with the medication, without the side effects. The only question we have is... Should it be stopped a few days before an operation, as is often indicated for aspirin? How can it be translated into a chemical equivalent for a doctor who doesn't know naturopathy?
