What is cholesterol?

To perform various functions, the body needs approximately 0.5–1 g of cholesterol per day. About 90% of this amount can be produced by the body itself. The remaining portion is absorbed from food. Cholesterol levels increase primarily due to the consumption of fatty animal-based foods containing saturated fatty acids, such as butter, dairy products, and meat. It is important to remember that when a large amount of cholesterol is absorbed from food, its production in the liver slows down.

Not all cholesterol is the same

Cholesterol does not dissolve in water. For cholesterol to be transported in the blood, certain water-soluble proteins are needed as carriers – lipoproteins. However, these proteins transport not only cholesterol but also fatty acids, phospholipids, and fat-soluble vitamins.

Based on the protein and fat content, lipoproteins are divided into three groups of different density.

Note: the higher the lipid (fat) content, the more harmful it is to health:

• HDL – high-density lipoproteins, also known as good cholesterol, have high density but low lipid content;
• LDL – low-density lipoproteins, also known as bad cholesterol, have low density but high lipid content;
• VLDL – very low-density lipoproteins, precursors to LDL.

When talking about cholesterol, we generally refer to total cholesterol, which consists of HDL, LDL, and VLDL lipoproteins. When measuring cholesterol levels in the blood, the ratio of HDL and LDL cholesterol is accurately determined, and the level of LDL cholesterol should be as low as possible.

LDL, "bad" cholesterol

If the level of LDL cholesterol in the blood is too high, it settles on the walls of blood vessels. The higher the level of bad LDL or VLDL cholesterol in the blood, the more it accumulates on the vessel walls.

HDL, "good" cholesterol

HDL cholesterol is called "good" because it is capable of absorbing accumulated cholesterol and transporting it back to the liver. In this way, HDL cholesterol ensures a balance between cholesterol production in the liver and returning excess cholesterol to the liver, preventing deposits in blood vessels. For this reason, an ideal state is having a normal total cholesterol level in the blood with the highest possible proportion of HDL cholesterol and the lowest possible proportion of LDL and VLDL cholesterol.

INGREDIENTS

Choline bitartrate, corn starch, capsule shell: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, fermented red rice (Oryza sativa, seeds), coenzyme Q10, folic acid.

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS

FERMENTED RED RICE

Fermented red rice or red yeast rice is a traditional Chinese preparation of cooked white rice, fermented by the Monascus purpureus mold. During fermentation, many substances are produced that are responsible for the intense red color. Dried and ground rice is called red rice flour.

• Monacolins are a group of chemical compounds found naturally in various types of mold
• A substance from the monacolin group – monacolin K

Fermented red rice also contains red, orange-red, and yellow pigments (also known as secondary pigments).

CHOLINE BITARTRATE

• Choline is a water-soluble B-group vitamin
• Contains lecithin
• Choline helps support normal homocysteine metabolism
• Choline helps support normal lipid metabolism
• Choline helps support normal liver function

• Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble compound naturally produced by the body. Q10 production in the body decreases with age.
• Coenzyme Q10 is found in food products such as fatty fish (e.g., salmon and tuna), organ meats (heart, liver, kidneys), whole grains, nuts, and seeds.

FOLIC ACID

• Water-soluble vitamin B (i.e., excess amounts are automatically eliminated from the body through urine)
• Folic acid participates in the process of cell division
• Folic acid contributes to normal blood formation
• Folic acid helps support normal homocysteine metabolism
• Folic acid helps reduce tiredness and fatigue
• Folic acid helps support normal immune system function
• Folic acid helps support normal amino acid synthesis
• Folic acid helps support normal psychological functions
• Folate contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy
• Cell division is impossible without the involvement of folic acid
• Folic acid converts homocysteine into valuable and vital methionine (this process occurs with the help of vitamins B6 and B12)
• According to the Swiss Nutrition Report, the population consumes an insufficient amount of folic acid (on average 295 μg instead of the appropriate 400 μg)
