Blood Pressure Formula
GNC Preventive Nutrition Blood Pressure Formula is a botanical and nutrient blend with seven ingredients. Each two-softgel serving provides 360 mg of Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA), 140 mg of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA), 99 mg of Potassium, and 300 mg of MegaNatural(R)-BP(TM) Grape Seed Extract. The 360 mg of EPA is at a clinically studied dose, which is a significant strength for this product. However, the 140 mg of DHA and 99 mg of Potassium are considered underdosed for many clinical applications. The product holds an N+ Score of 40, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment due to the underdosed ingredients despite the clinically dosed EPA. This supplement may appeal to individuals seeking specific cardiovascular support with a clinically relevant dose of EPA.
