How It Works
Artichoke Leaves
Artichokes are often consumed as part of the Mediterranean diet. In fact, the ancient Greeks and Romans ate artichokes (or their cousins, cardoons) for targeted joint support. Artichoke leaves contain phytosterols and soluble fiber that are believed to account for the plant's health-promoting actions. Ongoing research indicates that artichoke leaves have beneficial effects on the liver and enhance bile flow, which in turn, may help maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range.
Phytosterols
Phytosterols (plant sterols) are natural compounds found in plants that support the cardiovascular system and heart health. Phytosterols compete with the intestinal absorption of cholesterol, which results in displaced cholesterol being removed from the body as waste. This may help the body maintain normal-range cholesterol levels. Food sources of phytosterols include unrefined vegetable oils, whole grains, nuts, seeds and legumes.
Inositol Nicotinate
Inositol, part of the B-vitamin complex, supports metabolic balance and healthy fat metabolism. Inositol also works together with choline to support a healthy liver. Inositol supplementation may help to maintain cholesterol and triglyceride levels already in the normal range. Coffee drinkers should note that caffeine intake may negatively affect inositol levels in the body.
Resveratrol
Resveratrol is a plant compound (a polyphenolic phytoalexin) found in grapes and red wine that acts to support plants that are under attack by foreign organisms. Resveratrol helps to maintain LDL and triglyceride levels already in the normal range. Studies indicate that resveratrol has promising heart-health benefits and may be the answer to the "French Paradox"—despite their high intake of fat, the French have a low incidence of heart issues.
Policosanol
Policosanol is the term for a blend of medium-chain alcohols extracted from plants. Human studies show that policosanol can effectively play a role in maintaining cholesterol levels already in the normal range. This compound appears to perform like red rice extract in the body. Policosanol came to light decades ago when researchers in Cuba began experimenting with its effects on the circulatory system. Since then, this sugar cane isolate has been studied and found to support the healthy management of lipids in mature adults.
