High cholesterol is the main risk factor associated with cardiovascular disease, which includes atherosclerosis (narrowing of the arteries), heart attack and stroke. Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of mortality worldwide and prevalence of high cholesterol is growing every year.

For your cholesterol uses 6 different mechanisms of action to help lower cholesterol, working on both reducing the absorption of dietary cholesterol and lowering the production of cholesterol in the liver. 80% of cholesterol in the body is produced in the liver, so it is important to target this as well as dietary cholesterol in order to effectively lower cholesterol.

Clinically trialled

 The probiotics in this product have undergone a clinical trial which was published in May 2013 in the British Journal of Nutrition. The study was performed on 60 people between the ages of 18 and 65. It showed that patients with total cholesterol levels above 6.5mmol/L reduced their LDL cholesterol levels by an average of 18%.
