What are Cardiovascular Tonics?
Cardiovascular tonics have an affinity for the heart, circulatory system and the blood vessels.
Nutrients, oxygen, immune cells, and all other important compounds, make their way through to the body through this intricate system of vessels. These vessels need to be smooth and resilient to be able to handle the day-to-day stress of that traffic flow. The heart is the epicenter of this intricate system.
