Lower Your Cholesterol Naturally
A new study has shown that the combination of two natural compounds, specialized citrus bioflavonoids and tocotrienols (a form of vitamin E), can effectively and naturally lower elevated total cholesterol levels by 30%. These are the two compounds found in Sytrinol, a patented new cholesterol-lowering supplement. (Rosa J., et. al. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine. 2007; 13(6): 44-48.)
The study involved men and women with total cholesterol levels above 230 mg/dL and LDL (the bad cholesterol) levels greater than 155 mg/dL. Study participants who were administered a combination of 270 mg of citrus bioflavonoids and 30 mg of tocotrienols experienced a 30% drop in total cholesterol, a 29% drop in LDL cholesterol and a 34% drop in triglycerides levels. In addition, their HDL (the good cholesterol) levels increased by 4%, resulting in a 29% improvement in the LDL:HDL ratio which is so important to heart health.
The Anti-Aging Bottom Line: More than 930,000 deaths each year are attributed to heart attack or stroke, making heart disease the leading cause of death in the U.S. Keeping your LDL cholesterol levels in a healthy range is a proven strategy for maintaining cardiovascular health and preventing heart disease. While cholesterol-lowering statin drugs are widely prescribed to help people accomplish this, their use is associated with many potentially serious side effects and dangers. Sytrinol may be a safe, natural cholesterol-lowering option for those who want to avoid or stop using statins.
