Cholesterol Support

Vitamin B3 helps block the release of fatty acids (triglycerides) from body fat. This results in lowering the bad cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides, but raises the good HDL cholesterol. Our specific variety nicotinamide does not have the flushing side effects usually associated with niacin.

Beta-Phytosterols are a master of disguise. Their unique chemical structure closely resembles that of cholesterol, so when processed in the digestive tract, they are absorbed into the blood and cholesterol is eliminated instead. It can also bind to the prostate to help reduce swelling (inflammation).

Inulin is a soluble plant fibre prebiotic. Because is not absorbed by the digestive system, as it moves though, it binds to toxins, fat and cholesterol, so they can be eliminated. An added benefit is that is does not raise blood sugar since its sugars cannot be absorbed but it’s fibre can, so that aids digestion too!

Soy Lecithin speeds up the breakdown of fats. This is good news!  It means gathering fats in the walls of your arteries are not able to stick around. It also helps to manage the flow of nutrients in and out of your cells which means it can improve circulation and cardiovascular health in general.

An 8-week study showed Soy Lecithin reduced total cholesterol by 42% and bad LDL cholesterol by 56%.
