I farm coffee and beans above Kabale, and the slope to my gardens takes the wind out of me. My sister in Mbarara kept asking me to look after myself.
She posted me a box of Cardio A. One tablet goes down with my evening posho and beans, and on the climb to the gardens I now stop less often to catch my breath.

Thiamine (B1) contributes to the normal working of the heart, and B6 helps reduce tiredness through the day.
Two plants with a long record in the home: hawthorn for the heart, garlic for healthy-looking vessels.
Vitamin C supports collagen in vessel walls, while vitamin E and astaxanthin act as antioxidants for cells.
Eight actives in one tablet: vitamins B1, B6, C and E, three plant extracts, nettle and astaxanthin.
thiamine keeps the heart muscle working normally; pyridoxine eases the tired-out feeling by late afternoon
extract of a thorny shrub that European households have brewed for the heart
concentrate of the familiar cooking bulb, a traditional friend of the circulation
concentrated leaf of the old ginkgo tree, taken for circulation in fine vessels
supports collagen formation for vessel walls and the body's natural defences
a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress
the red pigment of microalgae, valued as an antioxidant
a green leaf commonly brewed as a tonic for its minerals

Whichever is your heaviest meal, as the pack directs. The point is to keep the same meal each day so the habit sticks.
No break is printed on the pack. For long-term use, mention it at your next check-up, especially if you take any heart medicine.
Plain vitamins are usually fine, but another ginkgo or garlic product would double up. Show the label to your doctor if you take blood thinners.
It is for adults. Under 18 should not take it, and people over sixty on heart or pressure tablets should ask their doctor first.
The form asks for nothing more. Cards and mobile-money details are not requested.
The agent confirms where to deliver, how many packs you want and the day that suits you.
Payment in cash is made at delivery, when the parcel is already yours.
