Active plant sterols... An exciting and innovative new product designed to offer nutritional support to help keep your heart healthy
Extended Info
The liver is responsible for processing cholesterol and maintaining it in healthy levels in the body.To help support the liver in maintaining normal lipid (fat) levels it may be helpful to supplement your diet with natural plant sterols and friendly bacteria. SterolVite is a nutrient complex containing the plant sterol, beta sitosterol, L.plantarum, vitamins B12 and B6, folic acid and Trimethylglycine. L.plantarum is a member of the transitory lactic acid bacteria family which populates the gastrointestinal tract.
These bacteria are known to ferment fibre inthe gut and produce factors which have been associated with positive benefits in helping maintain healthy blood vessels and cardiac fitness. L.plantarum may also assist the body's metabolism of lipids ( fats). Plant sterols are found naturally in plants and the human body where they are essential components of cell membranes. Beta-sitosterol is one of the most abundant sterols. Studies suggest an association between intake of plant sterols and favourable lipid metabolism.
Healthy lipid levels are not the only factor when considering the health of the circulatory system – a molecule known as homocysteine, if present in high levels, may affect normal functioning of the system. The build up of homocysteine can contribute to changes to the health of the arteries.TMG, B6, B12 and folic acid taken in combination may help maintain healthy homocysteine levels naturally.
