Cholestin

Description
Food supplement based on plant phytosterols, red rice extract, green tea extract, coenzyme Q10 and folic acid, which promotes normal lipid metabolism, as part of an appropriate diet.
Monacolin K, obtained from red yeast rice (Monascus purpureus), participates in the synthesis of hepatic cholesterol. The beneficial effect is obtained by daily administration of 10 mg of monacolin K. Phytosterols interfere with the transport of cholesterol in intestinal micelles, reducing the possibility of dietary cholesterol being absorbed through the transporters responsible for its internalization. The beneficial effect is obtained by daily administration of at least 0.8 g of plant sterols/stanols.
Green tea has an antioxidant effect.
Coenzyme Q10 is a powerful antioxidant synthesized in the liver, just like cholesterol.
Folic acid allows the reduction of plasma levels of homocysteine, a metabolite that affects the vascular endothelium.
