  • Publication number: 20100190737
    Abstract: The invention comprises a composition of inosine and orotic acid or a salt thereof, and its methods of use in treating, maintaining and enhancing the health of the heart, and specifically the integrity of the myocardium. The effective combination of inosine and orotic acid/orotate effectively improves various medical parameters that are widely used to assess cardiac function and structure. These include EKG and VCG recordings, quantitative assessments of work capacity and athletic performance, clinically relevant observations, and direct biochemical, histological and ultrastructural analyses. The observations and controlled studies in mice, rats, rabbits, cardiology patients and high performance human athletes (cyclists) consistently support the effectiveness of the combination of inosine and orotic acid/orotate in both preventing and reversing damage to the myocardium resulting from physical stress.
