			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><em>Do you have high cholesterol?</em> Have you considered using Zocor to help your cholesterol? You might be curious if Zocor is right for you and how it works. Like all prescription drugs, Zocor is not for everyone.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Canadian Zocor</strong> is intended for use with a diet when exercise and diet alone do not lower your cholesterol. Do not take Zocor if you are pregnant, you may become pregnant, you are breast feeding or if you have liver problems. Talk with your doctor if you are taking any other prescription medications.</p>
<p align="justify"><em>How does Zocor work?</em> Zocor blocks enzymes that help in creating cholesterol in your body. Less cholesterol is made and your levels decrease when this happens. Lower levels of cholesterol can reduce your risks of heart diseases and strokes. Your doctor will know if this medicine is for you based on your condition.</p>
<p align="justify">&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/blog/img/canadian_zocor.jpg" alt="canadian zocor" width="288" height="216" /></p>
<p align="justify">Before taking Zocor you should try a low cholesterol diet. Diet and exercise together can help in reducing your cholesterol levels and is always recommended before taking any drug to help. If exercise and diet alone are not helping your cholesterol, then your doctor may suggest taking <em><a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=zocor&amp;count=1&amp;pid=_2259&amp;dis=&amp;cart=">cheap Zocor</a></em>.</p>
<p align="justify">Zocor’s recommended dosage is ten to forty mg once a day. It will all depend on your cholesterol level and your doctor will tell you the recommended dosage. Your doctor may have you start at a low dose and eventually go higher if the low dosage does not help.</p>
<p align="justify">When taking <em><a href="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/item/zocor.html">canadian Zocor</a></em> you want to remember to take every dose. If you miss one take it right away but do not double your dosage to make up for one that you missed. Go by what your doctor says because he will know what is best for you and your condition.</p>
<p align="justify">Like any prescription drug Zocor can cause various side effects. You might experience these side effects for a short period of time after first taking <strong><a href="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/item/zocor.html">Zocor 10mg</a></strong>. You might also experience them temporarily or permanently. Talk with your doctor about any concerns you may have with certain side effects.</p>
<p align="justify"><em>These are a few side effects you could experience with Zocor:</em></p>
<ul align="justify">
<li>Loss of Balance</li>
<li>Numbness</li>
<li>Dark Urine</li>
<li>Yellow skin or eyes</li>
<li>Abdominal Pain</li>
<li>Loss of Appetite</li>
<li>Nausea or Vomiting</li>
<li>Itching</li>
</ul>
<p align="justify">Every patient is different so if you experience any side effects that might concern you just talk with your doctor about them. Your doctor will know if you should stop taking <em><a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=zocor&amp;count=1&amp;pid=_2259&amp;dis=&amp;cart=">Zocor 20mg</a></em> of just limit your dosage differently.</p>
<blockquote align="justify"><p>Other drugs can interact with Zocor so be sure you let your doctor know of any medications you are taking. Prescription and over the counter. If you are taking another medication that might interact with Zocor, you do not necessarily have to stop taking either one. You might just be monitored closely by your doctor to be sure you do not experience any major side effects.</p></blockquote>
<p align="justify"><strong><font color="#999999">Talk with your doctor about every concern you might have. No matter how much information you can read on Zocor, only your doctor can give you the most accurate information concerning your personal condition.</font></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><strong><font color="#999999">A Michigan State University researcher is studying whether the most popular class of cholesterol-lowering drugs may cause muscle problems in users.</font></strong></p>
<p align="justify">There is accumulating evidence that the effect statins can have on skeletal muscle – including muscle weakness, fatigue and deterioration – is underestimated, said Jill Slade, assistant professor of radiology and osteopathic manipulative medicine at MSU. <a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=lipitor&#038;count=1&#038;t=&#038;pid=_2259&#038;dis=&#038;cart=">Cheap lipitor</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>“<em>Statins work by preventing cholesterol from forming,</em>” said Slade, whose study is funded by a two-year, $230,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health. “<em>While this is a good thing inside structures such as liver cells, it can be problematic in places such as muscle cells.</em>”</p></blockquote>
<p>About 50 percent of all Americans over the age of 50 are prescribed a statin medication, including Lipitor, Crestor and Torvast, and their use has tripled in the past seven years. Side effects affecting skeletal muscles have been reported in up to 7 percent of users, though Slade thinks that number could be higher.<br />
<strong><a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=lipitor&#038;count=1&#038;t=&#038;pid=_2259&#038;dis=&#038;cart=">Lipitor Online</a></strong><br />
In August 2001, the Food and Drug Administration pulled the statin Baycol off the market after it appeared to be responsible for 31 deaths through a potentially fatal breakdown of muscle tissue known as rhabdomyolysis. The FDA at the time said the muscle breakdown occurred more frequently in patients taking Baycol than in patients on other statins. The National Lipid Association in 2006 published recommendations on investigating statin-induced muscle problems, and Slade’s research will directly address several of those.</p>
<p>As part of her study, Slade will use nuclear magnetic resonance imaging at the MSU Department of Radiology Exercise and Nutrition Lab to measure muscle integrity and function before and during statin treatment. Fifty people – half taking high doses of statins and half taking low doses – will be analyzed over a one- to six-month period.</p>
<blockquote><p>“<em>While statins have tremendously helped millions of Americans lower their cholesterol and improve their cardiac health, we need to be confident we are not causing other problems in the body,</em>” Slade said. “<em>It is important to understand the side effects of using statins and have the tools to identify people who may be more susceptible to them.</em>”</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"> <em><font color="#999999">Heart attack is the leading cause of death not only in the United States but in the entire world.</font></em> It kills twice as many people than the 2nd leading cause of death, which is cancer. Heart disease is also known as the silent killer because it happens suddenly with no fair warning. More than 50% of people who die of cardiac causes have no history of heart disease because sudden cardiac death is the most common cardiac sign. According to the National Institute of health high <em><a href="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/group/blood_pressure_cholesterol.html">blood pressure</a></em> should be a priority concern of over 65 million Americans. That is over 1 in 3 Americans. This statistic is even higher if you’re African American. This statistic is also directly linked to the fact that 62% of Americans are overweight or obese. If you are overweight or obese you probably have <strong>high blood pressure</strong> or <strong>cholesterol</strong> and don&#8217;t even know it. High cholesterol oxidizes in your arteries and forms plaque, which blocks blood flow, which leads to a heart attack.</p>
<p align="justify" style="text-align: center"><img src="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/blog/img/bloodpressure.jpg" alt="blood pressure (need crestor)" width="400" height="320" /></p>
<h3 align="justify"><a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=crestor&amp;count=1&amp;t=&amp;pid=_2259&amp;dis=&amp;cart=">Cheap Crestor</a></h3>
<p align="justify">In addition to exercising on a regular basis and eating foods low in trans fats and cholesterol, there are many all natural ingredients you can take to lower cholesterol and high blood pressure. First you should know there is a three step process to lowering cholesterol and high blood pressure and there are all natural ingredients out there that are clinically proven to assist in all 3 of these steps, which can reduce the use of statins and drugs. Below is the 3 step process and its assisting all natural ingredients.</p>
<ol align="justify">
<li>Prevent Cholesterol Absorption &#8211; It is common sense to eat less high fatty foods and eating fresh fruits and vegetables to reduce cholesterol absorption. Of course no matter what you do you will still eat food that has cholesterol therefore you should take Phytosterol to help your body to absorb much less cholesterol. Phytosterols are also called plant sterols, which are a group of steroid alcohol, photochemical naturally occurring in plants. They are white powders with mild, characteristic odor insoluble in water and soluble in alcohols. They have many applications as food additives and in medicine and cosmetics. Phytosterol have a very similar molecular structure as cholesterol therefore it mimics cholesterol in the digestive tract and blocks cholesterol from being absorbed. In this way your body absorbs less cholesterol therefore less cholesterol enters the bloodstream and the unabsorbed cholesterol passes through your body as waste. By lowering cholesterol absorption you help prevent the risk of heart attack.<img src="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/blog/img/cholesterol.jpg" alt="crestor cholesterol" width="400" height="320" /></li>
<li>Preventing Plaque Build Up &#8211; The second step to lowering cholesterol is to prevent it from oxidizing in the arteries and forming plaque since Plaque is what makes high <em><a href="http://awccanadianpharmacy.com/group/blood_pressure_cholesterol.html">cholesterol</a></em> deadly. There are several all antioxidants, which are great for preventing LDL cholesterol from forming plaque. Grape Seed, Grape Skin, Bilberry Extract, Quercetin, and Gingko Baloba are all flavenoids found in certain grapes and berries which naturally prevent plaque formation, which lowers cholesterol levels. Gingko Baloba comes from a 4000 year old ancient plant which also helps to prevent blood platelet activity.</li>
<li>Break up Plaque Build Up &#8211; Of course after you reduce cholesterol absorption and reduce cholesterol oxidation which forms plaque, you&#8217;ll still have some plaque build up that needs to be broken up. Not only does plaque build up cause heart disease but it also causes damage to arteries. Omega 3 fish oil has many properties, but two of the most important properties in relation to heart health is that it breaks up plaque build up, helps your body absorb more phytosterols, helps increase HDL cholesterol levels, reduces tryglyceride levels, increases blood flow to the heart as well as the brain for better memory function and many other benefits not related to heart health.</li>
</ol>
<p align="justify">In addition to lowering cholesterol there are 4 all natural ingredients that help <strong>lower high blood pressure</strong>:</p>
<ul align="justify">
<li><u>Tripeptides</u> &#8211; Tripeptides are derived from cutured milk and were discovered in the early 1900s by Japanese scientist. Nearly a century of research led to the patented process of isolating the tripeptides that help maintain healthy blood pressure. A potent therapeutic dose of these tripeptides has been shown to protect the artery wall.</li>
<li><u>Passionflower</u> &#8211; A creeping perennial vine, recognized for its natural stress relieving and relaxing abilities.</li>
<li><u>Potassium</u> &#8211; Potassium is an element critical to helping your body maintain the proper balance of potassium and sodium necessary for optimum heart and blood vessel health.</li>
<li><u>Pomegranate</u> &#8211; Pomegranate is a powerful antioxidant, and has been shown to possess stress-relieving properties, A three year study found that pomegranate helps promote healthy blood flow.</li>
</ul>
<p align="justify">You must know that <strong><a href="http://www.cheap-pharmacy.us/?action=crestor&amp;count=1&amp;t=&amp;pid=_2259&amp;dis=&amp;cart=">crestor</a></strong> is used with a proper diet to help <em>lower cholesterol</em>!</p>
