You know the ION Profile is one of the best values in nutritional medicine. The Cardio/ION Profile makes it an even better value by adding cutting-edge risk markers for cardiovascular disease (CVD)!
Why should you order the Cardio/ION Profile?
Because 1 in 3 adults has some form of cardiovascular disease (2). The Cardio/ION identifies key nutritionally modifiable risk factors for CVD, including:
- Fatty acid imbalances that lead to chronic inflammation, shown by current research to be one of the most probable causes of CVD
- High fibrinogen that can make the blood more sticky or viscous, increasing the risk of clots
- Homocysteine, increasingly recognized as an important risk factor for not only CVD, but stroke and dementia as well
- Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), a fat-soluble, vitamin-like substance in every human cell that is involved in key biochemical reactions that produce energy in cells, and it also acts as an antioxidant
- Fasting insulin, an indicator of insulin resistance which often leads to metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, and CVD
- Sufficiency of antioxidant protection, shown in studies to help reduce fatty deposits on artery walls and limit cell damage that can lead to both CVD and cancer

Cardio/ION™ Profile
Go beyond conventional serum lipid markers. Identify critical CVD risk factors, including:
• Fibrinogen
• C-Reactive Protein
• Homocysteine
• Lipoprotein(a)
• AA/EPA Ratio
•Testosterone
• CoQ10
• Insulin
• RBC Magnesium
• LDL/HDL Ratio
The Cardio/ION Profile can also guide your treatment of many other conditions, including:
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Cancer
• Obesity
• Immune Disorders
• Mental/Emotional Disorders
• Learning and Behavior Disorders
• Multiple Chemical Sensitivities
• Inflammatory Conditions
