You may not have heard of policosanol before, but this unique blend of long-chain fatty alcohols (LCFAs) derived from sugar cane could be a game-changer for supporting cholesterol levels already within the normal range.* In addition to LCFAs, policosanol also includes plant sterols (from pine) and hawthorn berry for additional support. Keep reading to learn more about how policosanol works and why you should consider incorporating it into your daily health routine.
What is Policosanol?
Policosanol is a blend of LCFAs that are sourced from sugar cane. LCFAs are a type of plant wax that is naturally occurring. Studies have shown that plant waxes like those found in policosanol may help to support cholesterol levels already within the normal range.*
How Does Policosanol Work?
Policosanol works by helping the body to break down LDL cholesterol (the "bad" kind). It also inhibits the oxidation of LDL cholesterol, which is a key factor in the development of heart disease. By incorporating policosanol into your daily health routine, you can help to keep your LDL cholesterol levels in check and support your overall cardiovascular health.
Why Should I Consider Taking Policosanol?
Supporting healthy cholesterol levels is important for everyone, but it's especially important as you age. As we get older, our bodies become less efficient at breaking down LDL cholesterol. This can lead to an accumulation of LDL cholesterol in the blood, which can increase your risk for heart disease. That's why incorporating policosanol into your daily routine is a smart way to support your cardiovascular health as you age.
If you're looking for a natural way to support healthy cholesterol levels, policosanol may be right for you. This unique blend of plant waxes helps the body to break down LDL cholesterol and inhibits its oxidation. By taking policosanol on a daily basis, you can help to keep your LDL cholesterol levels in check and support your overall cardiovascular health - especially as you age. Give policosanol a try today!
