Description

What is Red Sterol?

If you need support for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels Red Sterol Complex is for you. A unique combination of plant sterols, red yeast rice, a traditional Chinese extract from rice fermented with monascus purpureus, and policosanol extract. Plant sterols block the absorption of cholesterol from your diet to help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels, whilst red yeast rice has been used for centuries for its potent health giving properties. Policosanol is found naturally in sugar cane waxes. The formula also includes cinnamon bark extract and vitamin E for complete support. Vitamin E helps protect against the oxidation of cholesterol.

Oxidation is a chemical process in the body where molecules in our cells, or in this case, fats such as cholesterol become damaged by unstable molecules called free radicals. It is believed that the oxidised cholesterol in particular is harmful to the health of the arteries, causing inflammation and hardening. Excessive oxidation may be caused by factors such as stress, smoking and alcohol.

We recommend that you take Co Enzyme Q10 while using Red Sterol Complex. The Red Sterol Complex is perfectly partnered with fish oils which provide EPA and DHA for comprehensive cardiovascular support.

Why is ours better?

Cleverly formulated with a two pronged natural approach - this unique product targets cholesterol in the diet and cholesterol made by the liver itself. Giving you dual benefits when you need it most.

Who is this for?

For anyone who is not currently taking conventional statin medication, but may be concerned about raised cholesterol levels and wishes to lower them naturally, without side effects. We have formulated this product so that it can be used at higher initial dose and then results maintained at a lower maintenance dose.
