Is Cardiol a natural product?

Dear Pierangelo,


Cardiol is a natural product, or more precisely, it is defined as a "nutraceutical." It is a blend of specific food components with functional properties on our body. Each individual component found in Cardiol can also be found in foods (omega-3s in fish, fermented red rice typical of traditional Chinese medicine, resveratrol in red wine, vitamins in fruits and vegetables, folic acid in leafy greens...), but the difference is that to reach effective doses of these components, one would have to consume very large quantities of food. Through the extraction of active components from food matrices, it is possible to obtain concentrated natural extracts, which are the nutraceuticals.


By reading the ingredient list on the package, you will also see the names of the plants and the parts of plants from which the extracts were obtained.



I hope I have answered your question.



Best regards,

Dr. Rosaria Ramondino Pharmacist and Pharmaceutical Chemist
