2.5 billion.
That’s the number of heartbeats in an average lifetime. Our steadfast hearts are hard at work, every second of the day, every day of our lives.
To keep our hearts beating for 2.5 billion and beyond, they’ll need a little support. That’s why Aceva created the Heart Care Bundle: a comprehensive vitamin and supplement pack that delivers the most essential nutrients for a healthy heart and cardiovascular system.
Let’s take a closer look at why your heart health matters and how you can prevent heart disease with help from Aceva.
Why Care About Heart Health?
It’s no news that our hearts are one of the hardest working organs of the body. Unfortunately, they are also one of the most vulnerable. Heart disease continues to rank as the number one cause of death in the United States, and heart attacks and stroke account for over 1.5 million hospital visits a year.
Heart disease is most commonly caused by plaque buildup within the arteries (often as a result of an unhealthy diet and high stress). As plaque builds up, it prevents the free flow of blood and oxygen through the heart which can then lead to heart attack and stroke.
Heart disease may be common, but it is preventable. Making positive changes to your diet and lifestyle will protect your heart and set the stage for a long and vibrant life.
Show Your Heart Some Love: Aceva’s Heart Care Supplement Bundle
Better heart health is as easy as 1-2-3. Aceva’s Heart Care Bundle contains three quality supplements packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and natural ingredients proven to support your entire cardiovascular system.
#1: CT-Reg
Keeping your cholesterol levels in check is essential for long term heart health. Out CT-Reg works to maintain optimal blood lipid markers (like cholesterol and blood sugar levels) while also managing your metabolism and thyroid health. This formula uses a blend of vitamins and minerals along with powerful natural ingredients like Guggulipid, N-Acetyl L-Cysteine, and policosanol to manage cholesterol and enhance overall cardiovascular health.
#2: CoQ10
Aceva’s CoQ10 uses the highly-absorbable form of ubiquinol to best protect the heart and arteries, while also offering energy support. Ubiquinol is known to preserve the heart muscle function and encourage cellular healing. It also helps to improve mitochondrial function and can be used to fight fatigue, boost natural energy, and slow the aging process.
#3: Omega 3 Plus
When it comes to heart health, getting the right fats can make all the difference. Omega-3 fatty acids offer a wide range of support for the body, from reducing harmful inflammation to lowering blood pressure and preventing plaque build-up. Aceva’s Omega 3 Plus ensures that you are getting a daily dose of the right healthy fats and triglycerides to maintain a healthy cardiovascular system.
5 Bonus Heart-Healthy Habits
Aceva’s Heart Care Bundle will put you on the right track for long-term cardiovascular health, but vitamins and supplements are just the beginning. To truly care for our hearts, we can adopt healthy habits that both protect our health and make life more enjoyable. Take on these simple habits for better heart health with every beat!
#1: Ditch risky habits.
Risky habits (like smoking and binge drinking) can have severe effects on your heart, especially over long periods of time.
But here’s the good news: it’s never too late to quit. The body is a miraculous healer and begins to regenerate shortly after we stop engaging with the damaging habit. But, as all good things take time, the sooner you quit, the better chance you have at protecting your heart.
#2: Lose excess weight sustainably.
Obesity is a leading cause of heart disease. The extra weight we carry contributes to high levels of HDL, or “bad” cholesterol, high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and increased pain and stress.
Losing weight is one of the most significant ways to decrease your risk of heart attack, diabetes, and stroke. The key, however, is to make your weight loss sustainable. Fad diets and intense workouts are unlikely to last beyond a few months. To lose weight for good, choose a diet and lifestyle plan that you can stick to for years to come.
#3: Eat for heart health.
No matter your weight or size, unhealthy eating habits are one of the biggest causes of heart disease. The major culprits? Process foods, refined sugar and sugary drinks, trans and saturated fats, refined grains, and added salt.
Changing your diet may seem like an impossible task, but huge improvements can be made with small changes and healthy swaps. Focus on whole grains, healthy fats, and a rainbow of fresh fruits and vegetables.

#4: Live an active life.
A sedentary lifestyle is linked to a range of heart issues, including high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, and heart disease.
To keep your heart healthy, stay active! Take short breaks every hour to stretch and move, go for daily walks outside, and find an exercise routine that you enjoy. You’ll protect your heart, lose excess weight, and bust stress all at the same time. Aim to exercise at least 150 minutes per week, and do exercises that get your heart rate up and break a sweat at least three times per week.
#5: Make a stress management plan.
As with nearly any health condition, stress wreaks havoc on heart health. When stressed, cortisol increases our heart rate and blood pressure. Our blood sugar spikes. We may turn to sugary, salty, or fatty snacks to ease our minds and feel better. We lose the restorative sleep we need to recover. Over time, these changes add up and negatively impact our cardiovascular systems.
But stress doesn’t have to control your life or rob you of great heart health. We can’t eliminate stress completely, but we can use smart techniques to minimize stress and keep our bodies healthy. Choose a few stress-relief activities that you enjoy and make them part of your everyday life.
