Description
Suitable for controlling cholesterol
Therapeutic Indications:
Cholesterol is a type of natural fat, present in all cells of the human body and necessary for healthy living. However, it can become a cardiovascular risk factor when its levels in the blood are high. The cholesterol present in the human body comes from two sources. The first source is endogenous cholesterol, which is synthesized by the liver. A quantity of this cholesterol is expelled from the blood through VLDL (Very Low Density Lipoprotein) and the remaining quantity is converted into bile acids. The second source, exogenous cholesterol, comes from food, generally of animal origin and its derivatives. During the day, the cholesterol present in the intestine is composed of 2/3 endogenous origin and 1/3 exogenous origin.
CONTROCOL helps control LDL-cholesterol levels.
Controcol contains active ingredients with proven effectiveness.
Birch helps maintain normal cholesterol levels in the blood.
Milk Thistle contributes to liver protection.
RED RICE:
It is a traditional Chinese product resulting from the fermentation of a type of yeast on rice. This process produces compounds called monacolins, one of which is monacolin K. Monacolin K, also known as lovastatin, is prescribed to lower blood lipid levels.
GAMMA-ORYZANOL:
The mechanism of action is not yet known. However, studies show that taking gamma-oryzanol with a high-cholesterol diet increases bile flow and total bile acid production by 12% and 18% respectively. A significant increase in fecal excretion of cholesterol (28%) and bile acids (29%) and a decrease in cholesterol absorption (20%) were also observed.
CHROMIUM:
Research suggests that a diet poor in chromium increases the risk of developing arteriosclerosis. Chromium supplementation has been shown to be effective in lowering triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol circulating in the blood, and increasing HDL-cholesterol.
Q10:
The use of statins is often associated with a variety of symptoms related to myopathies. Statins inhibit the production of coenzyme Q10, an essential cofactor for mitochondrial energy production. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ-10) is a vitamin-like substance found throughout the body, but especially in the heart, liver, kidneys, and pancreas.
MILK THISTLE:
One of the effects associated with the use of statins is their liver toxicity. Statins produce an increase in transaminases, which usually occurs in the first 3 months of treatment. Based on available clinical evidence, it can be concluded that the use of silymarin (the main active ingredient of Milk Thistle) is effective against liver toxicity.
