CHINEESE RED YEAST RICE: Chinese red yeast rice has been shown to balance cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL levels. This benefit goes significantly beyond the management of dietary fats and oils, by providing moderation of the body’s production of cholesterol. In addition, Chinese red yeast rice contains other natural phytochemicals, such as betasitosterol, stigma sterol, isoflavones, and monounsaturated fatty acids, which provide greater cholesterol balancing. Chinese red yeast rice is the product of rice on which red yeast (Monascus Purpureus) has been fermented. Its uses include the production of rice wine, as a food preservative for fish and meat, and as a traditional medicine. Traditional Chinese Medicine characterizes Chinese red yeast rice as a benign, effective remedy which improves the circulation

TAURINE: Balances cholesterol by forming bile acids which are the end products of cholesterol breakdown & are the only route for eliminating cholesterol from the body. This action requires a functioning gall bladder. Taurine has an inhibitory effect on the formation of cholesterol gall stones. It is required for efficient fat absorption & solubilization. It is helpful in states of fat malabsorption such as with cystic fibrosis & other pancreatic deficiency syndromes

ARTICHOKE LEAF EXTRACT is made from the long, serrated basal leaves of the plant, which contain the highest concentration of biologically active compounds. These compounds have displayed the ability to maintain healthy digestion and liver function. Chlorogenic acid and cynarin are two of the active compounds found in this extract. Chlorogenic acid positively affects glucose levels in the body in those already within normal range and may support healthy body weight. The compound cynarin, which is found almost exclusively in artichokes, may support digestion and maintain cholesterol levels already within a healthy range
