Pay the rider
Kabale hills every day, and you want a strong heart to match? Cardio A gives vitamin B1, hawthorn, garlic, ginkgo, nettle and astaxanthin in a single tablet at your main meal. Phone for a callback, then pay the rider.
Thiamine (B1) has its place in normal heart function, and hawthorn is the shrub whose flowers and leaves are traditionally taken for the heart.
Vitamin C contributes to the collagen that vessel walls are made of; garlic and ginkgo are plant allies for circulation.
A single tablet a day with your largest meal means the box of 15 covers just over two weeks.
Eight ingredients in every tablet: three vitamins, a mineral-rich nettle, three herbs and the antioxidant astaxanthin.
B1 for the working of the heart, B6 for less tiredness as the day drags on
thorny-shrub extract that European homes have long brewed for the heart
the kitchen bulb traditionally linked with healthy blood vessels
leaf of the ancient ginkgo tree, valued for the tiniest capillaries
supplies collagen formation for vessel walls and supports the body's defences
fat-soluble antioxidant vitamin that shields cells from oxidative wear
the red pigment of microalgae, prized as an antioxidant
a green tonic leaf, brewed in many homes for its minerals

With your biggest meal at the same hour every day. For most families in Uganda that is supper, so the evening is the usual choice.
The box names no pause. At one tablet daily it lasts 15 days, and you may continue with a new box if you like it.
Keep taking whatever pills you were prescribed and tell your doctor about Cardio A. Ginkgo and garlic can strengthen blood thinners, so ask before combining them.
Adults only. Chest pain, breathlessness or high blood pressure that is untreated call for a doctor first.
5/5
I am a retired surveyor in Kabale and I climb the hill to church every Sunday. My brother-in-law kept saying I should watch my heart, so I looked for a daily supplement.
He gave me a box of Cardio A. I take the tablet with my evening meal, and I also cut down on salt.
