Cholesterol Complex
With Red Rice, Vitamin B3, Lecithin and Coenzyme Q10 – Ideal for people with elevated blood lipid levels
Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common diseases worldwide. One of the contributing factors is excessively high cholesterol levels. Lack of exercise and poor dietary habits also contribute to dangerously high cholesterol levels. A dietary change is therefore essential for affected individuals.
What is Cholesterol?
The body needs cholesterol as a building block for cells and as a starting material for steroid hormones or bile acids. The body produces this important substance itself in the liver and intestinal mucosa. Cholesterol is needed for the hormones of the female cycle as well as for male sex hormones and the stress hormone cortisol.
The level of cholesterol in the blood depends on many factors. The reference values for total cholesterol in the blood have been continuously lowered over the past few years. However, more important than total cholesterol is the ratio between LDL and HDL cholesterol.
LDL stands for Low Density Lipoprotein. It consists of 70% fat and serves to transport cholesterol from the liver to the periphery, where it is used, for example, as a building block for cells or for tissue repair.
HDL stands for High Density Lipoprotein. It consists of 50% fat and is transported back in this form from the environment to the liver, where it can be broken down or converted.
Regulating Cholesterol Levels
To influence cholesterol levels through diet, it is not enough to simply reduce the consumption of meat and sausage products. Much more important is increasing the fiber content in the diet. Dietary fibers, such as the pectins from apples, sweep away excess cholesterol in the intestinal lining like a broom. Vitamins and secondary plant compounds from fruits and vegetables, on the one hand, reduce oxidative stress and, on the other hand, help to directly influence cholesterol metabolism. Sufficient intake of omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D3 has been proven to be an important factor in regulating blood lipid levels.
EVOLUTION Cholesterol Complex
The vital substance complex with Monacolin K contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. The complex contains natural Red Rice Extract and provides natural Monacolin K. In addition to red color pigments, the Red Rice, which is obtained through fermentation, also contains valuable bioflavonoids, amino acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Q10 and Inositol support energy metabolism.
