February usually brings heart-shaped love notes into our thoughts, so it’s aptly named American Heart Month! What better a time to focus on lifestyle habits and supplements that support your cardiovascular system? Heart disease is a top health concern, but you can take control with everyday choices like nutrition, exercise, and sleep, and extra heart health support from Mountain Peak Nutritionals products like HTN Support, Nitric Oxide, Cardio Health, Cholesterol Support, and Longevity.

Simple Daily Habits for Heart Health
Nutrition Basics
Eat a low-carb, high-protein diet to help control weight, blood sugar, and inflammation (body-wide swelling that can harm the heart). Choose whole foods: veggies (especially leafy greens), berries, fatty fish (for healthy omega-3 fats), eggs, grass-fed meats, nuts, seeds, and good fats like avocado and olive oil. Cut back on processed foods, added sugars, and sugary drinks.
Exercise for Any Level
Regular movement strengthens your heart and improves blood flow. Start where you are and go slow. Beginners can try 30 minutes of brisk walking most days. Add easy moves like wall push-ups or chair squats (2–3 sets of 8–12 reps). Aim for at least 150minutes of moderate activity per week and consider adding a heat therapylike sauna to further increase circulation.
Get Good Sleep
Try to get 7–9 hours nightly around the same time consistently if possible. Poor sleep raises blood pressure and stress. Get checked for sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops briefly during sleep), as untreated sleep apnea links to high blood pressure and higher risk of early death.
Reduce Stress
Ongoing emotional stress harms the heart. Try deep breathing (like 4-4-8: inhale 4 seconds, hold 4 exhale 8) guided meditation (can use an app or YouTube videos), prayer, gentle yoga, time in nature, or gratitude journaling. Even 10–15 minutes a day helps.
Targeted Support from Mountain Peak Nutritionals
These cardio health supplements use researched ingredients to support heart function. Use one or combine them based on your needs, with your doctor’s guidance.

Key ingredients include magnesium and potassium(minerals for heart rhythm and fluid balance), hawthorn berry (supports circulation), garlic, grape seed extract (antioxidant-rich), and herbs like Rauwolfia and Coleus forskohlii. Use alone or pair with Nitric Oxide for better vessel relaxation and flow.
Nitric Oxide (a top nitric oxide supplement and nitric oxide booster)
Boosts nitric oxide production to help blood vessels relax, improve circulation, and support healthy blood flow. Includes L-arginine and L-citrulline (building blocks for nitric oxide),hawthorn berry, white pine bark extract, and acetyl-L-carnitine. Great on its own or combined with HTN Support or Cardio Health for stronger circulation and heart support.
Cardio Health (all around heart health support)
Supports overall heart performance and energy.

Use alone for general heart support or pair with Longevity (boost CoQ10 benefits) or Cholesterol Support.
Cholesterol Support (one of the best supplements to lower cholesterol)
