Summary
Cho-less-terin softgels contain five potent, proven, natural ingredients, formulated in a matrix of red palm fruit oil to manage harmful cholesterol.
Cho-less-terin takes a natural approach to cholesterol management. Our formula features the nutraceuticals red yeast extract, guggul lipids, beta-glucans, green tea extract, and plant sterols in a highly bioavailable matrix of red palm fruit oil. Sixteen studies involving 590 people with high cholesterol levels have shown that sterols from plants alone can reduce total cholesterol by an average of 10%, and harmful LDL cholesterol by 15%. The combination of actives in Cho-less-terin can reduce total cholesterol levels even more.
