Rice fermentation product (monascus purpureus) that has been used for centuries as a "medicinal food" that helps blood circulation. It contains "plant statins" the monacolins, the main representative being monacolin K, which act as inhibitors of HMG-Co reductase (an enzyme that controls the biosynthesis of cholesterol in liver cells.

Other active ingredients are sterols, isoflavones and monounsaturated fatty acids. GUGGUL (COMMIPHORA MUKUL). Plant of the Burseraceae family. Guggulsterones (E and Z stereoisomers) are isolated from the resin of the plant, which act as antagonists of farsenoid-x receptors and lead to reduced cholesterol synthesis in the liver.

Guggulsterones act as plant sterols and compete with cholesterol for its reabsorption. Consequently, they prevent the deposition of cholesterol in the arteries.

Soy isoflavones: They have an antioxidant effect. They help the blood vessels to dilate by reducing the concentration of LDL in the artery walls. They enhance the secretion of bile acid, thus helping to remove cholesterol from the blood.

Inositol: Like choline it promotes the extraction of fat from the liver. It contributes to the prevention of hardening of the arteries and is important in the formation of lecithin and in the metabolism of fats and cholesterol.

VIT E: Antioxidant. Important in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.
