Advancis® Cholesterim Ultra is a food supplement in capsules, with a complete and balanced formula to control cholesterol. Contains Plant Sterols, Monacolin K, Ginger, Burdock, Vitamin C and Vitamins, B6, B2, B1, B12 and Folic Acid. Plant sterols are substances structurally similar to cholesterol, which are only naturally present in products of plant origin. Since they are structurally similar to cholesterol, plant sterols bind to cholesterol transporters and are absorbed in its place. Cholesterol that is not absorbed is eliminated via the intestine. Its regular consumption is associated with a reduction in total and LDL cholesterol levels. Since high cholesterol is a risk factor for cardiovascular health, plant sterols appear as an aid to counteract this situation. Monacolin k is a secondary compound that results from the fermentation process of red rice. VITAMIN B6, B9 AND B12 Contribute to normal homocysteine metabolism. VITAMIN B1 (THIAMINE) Contributes to the normal functioning of the heart. VITAMIN C Contributes to the normal formation of collagen for the normal functioning of blood vessels and contains antioxidant properties, as it contributes to the protection of cells against undesirable oxidation. advised situations Cholesterol reduction; Family history of cardiovascular disease; Cardiovascular protection.
