The first product, Vinoprin, is an “all-natural extract from American Hops that provides fast-acting, all-day relief from ordinary aches and pains.”

• Amazing Health Benefits from Hops Extracts

Reduces pain causing enzymes Supports the body’s natural inflammatory response May promote bone health Easy on the stomach

• Vinoprin Science:  The alpha acids in Vinoprin block the COX-2 enzymes in the body, which cause inflammation and pain as a response to injury and irritation. But they only partly block the COX-1 enzymes, preventing possible digestive and cardiovascular problems. This makes Vinoprin gentle enough to take every day.

• All-natural relief from everyday aches and pains:  Vinoprin™ is based on an extract from American hops, grown in Oregon and Washington, which are mostly used to give beer its distinct flavor. Hops have been used medicinally for thousands of years for pain relief, as a sleep aid, and to alleviate symptoms of Menopause. Modern technology has allowed us to extract only the pain relief components from hops, using a patented process that eliminates the need for any toxic chemicals.

The second supplement, Vindure 900, is made from resveratrol, which comes from red wine. It is resveratrol that has been shown to slow down the aging process and help prevent age-related diseases including heart disease, cancer, alzheimers, diabetes, and others. Vindure 900 contains the perfect blend of red wine grape extract from the Bordeaux region of France, fortified with pure Resveratrol and quercetin.  Each Vindure 900 tablet contains 400mg of Vinomis Red Wine Grape Extract, in addition to pure Resveratrol and Quercetin. It has all the benefits of drinking 1-3 glasses of red wine (depending on the variety), without the alcohol or its calories.

Every patient in the cardiac care unit at the San Filippo Neri Hospital who survives a heart attack goes home with a prescription for purified fish oil, or omega-3 fatty acids.

“It is clearly recommended in international guidelines,” said Dr. Massimo Santini, the hospital’s chief of cardiology, who added that it would be considered tantamount to malpractice in Italy to omit the drug.

In a large number of studies, prescription fish oil has been shown to improve survival after heart attacks and to reduce fatal heart rhythms. The American College of Cardiology recently strengthened its position on the medical benefit of fish oil, although some critics say that studies have not defined the magnitude of the effect.

But in the United States, heart attack victims are not generally given omega-3 fatty acids, even as they are routinely offered more expensive and invasive treatments, like pills to lower cholesterol or implantable defibrillators. Prescription fish oil, sold under the brand name Omacor, is not even approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in heart patients.
