LipiCept™
is formulated for natural cholesterol support.*
LipiCept™
contains 400 milligrams of plant sterols per serving. Foods containing at least
400 milligrams per serving of plant sterols, eaten twice a day with meals for a
daily total intake of at least 800 milligrams and as part of a diet low in
saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. Plant
sterol have been shown to lower blood cholesterol.*
LipiCept™ also contains Cholesstrinol and Pantesin.
These proven ingredients have been formulated to support healthy cholesterol
levels already within the normal range.*
Cholesstrinol® is a patented proprietary blend of natural citrus and
palm fruit extracts standardized to bioflavonoids and tocotrienols. Published
placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, peer reviewed research shows that
Cholesstrinol® supports healthy blood lipid levels already within a
normal range.*
Pantesin®
branded pantethine is a clinically researched, ultra-pure ingredient that
supports healthy cholesterol levels. A derivative of vitamin B5, pantethine is
composed of two molecules of pantothenic acid. It helps increase the activity
of coenzyme A which creates a reduction in cholesterol synthesis.*
Phytosterols (also referred to as plant sterols)
are a group of naturally occurring compounds found in plant cell membranes.
Because phytosterols are structurally similar to the body’s cholesterol, when
they are consumed they compete with cholesterol for absorption in the digestive
system. As a result, cholesterol absorption is blocked, and blood cholesterol
levels reduced.*
Milk Thistle (Silybum
marianum) has been used for thousands of years as an herbal remedy for a
variety of ailments, particularly liver problems. Studies suggest that
substances in milk thistle (especially a flavonoid called silymarin) protect
and heal the liver from damage. The liver is central to the regulation of
cholesterol levels, including removing cholesterol from the body. Liver
function complications can hinder the organ’s ability to clear
cholesterol.*
Policosanol is
an ingredient consisting of medium-chain alcohols extracted from cane
(Saccharum officinalis). Studies suggest policosanol decreases cholesterol by
inhibiting cholesterol synthesis in the liver.*
