Headaches and heart conditions. What's the connection ?

Are you aware that using a combination of folic acid and vitamins B12 and B6 can help to reduce homocysteine, which is good for your cardiovascular health?

Better news yet- recent study found that using this same vitamin B combination can prevent and lessen the severity of migraine headaches in a certain segment of the population. Remember Migraines are vascular issues that's why this works!

NOT ONLY WILL YOUR HEART BE HEALTHIER YOU MAY LOOSE THE MIGRAINES TO

Another great use for Folate.

If you suffer with peripheral artery disease, increase your Folate levels, it has demonstrated a improvement in blood pressure and blood flow as well as increase homocysteine levels.
