Phyto Research ControlSterol 60 capsules

New generation natural cholesterol regulator ControlSterol's active ingredients preserve cardiovascular health on a daily basis thanks to a unique combination of concentrated plant extracts, patented ingredients, vitamins and essential nutrients. These natural active ingredients regulate cholesterol levels ("good" and "bad" cholesterol), protect blood vessels, promote buona blood circulation and proper heart function.| It works continuously 24 hours a day: one "day" vegetable capsule and one "night" vegetable capsule help to naturally regulate cholesterol levels on a daily basis, thus limiting the cardiovascular risks associated with excess cholesterol.| Finally a simple, natural and effective solution to control cholesterol! What is cholesterol? Cholesterol is a lipid (fat) of the sterol family produced mainly by the body, mainly in the liver. The rest comes from foods (butter, meat, eggs, cheese, whole milk, etc.).| Cholesterol is essential for the body. It is a fundamental constituent of our cell membranes. It also allows the production of sexual hormones (testosterone, estrogen), cortisol (anti-inflammatory hormone), bile acids necessary for the digestion of fats and vitamin D. | Good cholesterol VS bad cholesterol Cholesterol is transported in the blood by lipoproteins (large spherical molecules), the main ones are: HDL (high-density lipoprotein) and LDL (low-density lipoprotein). LDL transports cholesterol to the cells that need it. HDL transports excess cholesterol, which the cells did not need, from the tissues to the liver to be eliminated there, hence the name “good” cholesterol. When LDL cholesterol is in excess in the blood and the amount of HDL is insufficient, it is deposited on the walls of the arteries, promoting the formation of plaques that can block the arteries and impede blood circulation. This is why it is called "bad" cholesterol Excess cholesterol: one of the main enemies of our arteries Excess "bad" cholesterol (LDL), also called hypercholesterolemia, affects 1 in 5 adults. Sometimes genetic in nature, hypercholesterolemia is most often linked to being overweight and to an unbalanced diet. It develops gradually and with the utmost discretion. Only a blood test can detect it.| Too much LDL cholesterol can lead to the formation of deposits (plaques) on the walls of the arteries, particularly those of the heart, brain and legs. Obesity, hypertension and smoking also favor the appearance of these plaques.| When cholesterol oxidizes... The normal functioning of the body generates free radicals, essential for the correct functioning of the organism (especially the immune system), but in excess they can damage cells if they are not neutralized by natural antioxidants. This is called oxidative stress. This stress, noto to accelerate cellular aging, it also has an impact on cholesterol. In fact, when there are too many free radicals, they attack the LDL deposited in the arteries. LDL oxidizes to create inflammation, involving the immune system. Macrophages (white blood cells) are activated to eliminate them. They gorge themselves on oxidized LDL until they die and gradually add to the depot, increasing the thickness of plaque that gradually clogs the arteries and impedes blood circulation.| The ControSterol formula contains active ingredients that exert a strong antioxidant action to neutralize excess free radicals and fight oxidative stress, thus limiting the oxidation of LDL and the risk of arterial plaque formation.| What solutions in case of excess cholesterol? Excess cholesterol is a cardiovascular risk factor.| Three levers of action allow you to effectively combat excess cholesterol:| Reduce the amount of LDL to avoid deposits| Limits the oxidation of LDL, which creates inflammation that causes plaque growth Increase the amount of HDL, to promote the elimination of excess cholesterol | In practice, a balanced diet, based on the Mediterranean or Asian diet, and a healthy lifestyle are the first measures to be implemented. When medical treatment is needed, statins are doctors' first choice. These drugs effectively inhibit the liver's production of cholesterol but, like any drug, can cause side effects.| Among the natural alternatives we find fermented red rice, the use of which is currently being questioned, as well as food products enriched with phytosterols (margarines, yogurt, etc.), the use of which is not simple since it is necessary to modify one's consumption of food to arrive at an effective dose, which differs from individual to individual.| To meet the requirements of effectiveness, naturalness and tolerance, the PhytoResearch laboratory has developed ControlSterol, a natural formula to preserve cardiovascular health 24 hours a day:| 1 “day” vegetarian capsule provides a patented* black garlic extract and a concentrated Ceylon cinnamon extract which together regulate blood cholesterol and lipid levels | 1 “night” vegetable capsule provides a patented strain of beneficial lactic ferments**, combined with vitamins B1, B3, B6, B12 for the correct functioning of the heart, as well as coenzyme Q10. | Act day and night to preserve cardiovascular health. A “day” vegetable capsule provides every morning: | A patented black garlic extract* that has been the subject of numerous studies demonstrating its ability to regulate cholesterol levels, helping to maintain cardiovascular health. Black garlic is obtained through a maturation process, at controlled temperature and humidity, which allows the bioactive principles of garlic to be concentrated. The patented aging process of black garlic favors its high concentration of active ingredients, which guarantees maximum effectiveness. With a powerful antioxidant action, it is 10 times richer in antioxidant polyphenols than fresh garlic. It further protects blood vessels from oxidative stress, reducing the risk of plaque formation.| A Ceylon cinnamon extract that helps maintain normal lipid levels in the blood and contributes in particular to the formation of good cholesterol (HDL), while promoting a buona blood circulation.| One “night” vegetable capsule provides each evening: | A strain of beneficial lactic ferments patented** and developed for more than 20 years, having been the subject of numerous scientific studies. The latest research findings show that the composition of the intestinal flora could influence cardiovascular health.| Coenzyme Q10, an essential nutrient naturally present in cells, especially those of the heart, dove is involved in their respiratory mechanism. Its synthesis decreases with age, so it is interesting to integrate it.| Vitamins B1, B3, B6 and B12. Vitamin B1 contributes to the proper functioning of the heart. Vitamins B6 and B12 participate in the normal metabolism of homocysteine, an amino acid whose regulation is very important for cardiovascular health.| ControlStérol is a true natural alternative to combat excess cholesterol.| * Patented black garlic ABG10+® which has been the subject of scientific studies ** Patented ME-3® strain of beneficial lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus fermentum) which has been the subject of scientific studies
