CHOLESTO-LESS contribue à votre santé cardiovasculaire en faisant baisser le taux de cholestérol total et le taux de « mauvais cholestérol » (cholestérol LDL) dans le sang et en maintenant des taux de cholestérol adéquats. Le cholestérol est souvent perçu comme néfaste, mais, en réalité, une certaine quantité est nécessaire au bon fonctionnement de notre corps. En effet, on le retrouve partout : le cholestérol est la composante de base des parois cellulaires, mais aussi des principales hormones telles que l’œstrogène, la testostérone et le cortisol. Il est nécessaire à la production de vitamine D, dont nous avons besoin pour avoir des os solides. La bile, qui a pour fonction de décomposer et de nous aider à digérer les graisses provenant de la nourriture, est également composée en grande partie de cholestérol.

Cependant, l’alimentation typique en Amérique du Nord contient de trop nombreux aliments qui contribuent à l’augmentation des taux de cholestérol, bien au-delà des besoins de notre corps.
Le surplus de cholestérol total et le cholestérol LDL (connu sous le nom de « mauvais cholestérol ») se déposent alors sur les parois internes des vaisseaux sanguins et entraînent leur rétrécissement.
Résultat : l’oxygène et les nutriments ont du mal à atteindre les organes vitaux. Plus dangereux encore, un rétrécissement des vaisseaux sanguins peut empêcher l’oxygène d’arriver jusqu’au cœur ou au cerveau, augmentant ainsi les risques de crise cardiaque et d’accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC) 1.

Un taux de cholestérol élevé peut s’apparenter à des travaux sur une autoroute très fréquentée : les voies sont rétrécies, ce qui ralentit la circulation.
Si toutes les voies de l’autoroute se trouvent fermées à cause des travaux, nous ne pouvons pas atteindre notre destination, et les conséquences peuvent être fâcheuses.
C’est ce qui se passe lorsque le cholestérol rétrécit nos vaisseaux sanguins et bloque le débit sanguin vers les principaux organes : l’oxygène et les nutriments ne peuvent arriver à destination, ce qui finit par endommager les organes et les tissus.

Les risques de maladies cardiovasculaires et d’accident vasculaire cérébral peuvent être réduits directement par la diminution du taux de cholestérol total et de « mauvais cholestérol » (cholestérol LDL), ainsi que par l’augmentation du taux de « bon cholestérol » (ou cholestérol HDL). Il est donc essentiel de surveiller son taux de cholestérol 1.

CHOLESTO-LESS est formulé pour faire baisser le cholestérol total et le mauvais cholestérol, tout en augmentant le bon cholestérol, vous aidant ainsi à maintenir des taux de cholestérol adéquats. Il soutient également la santé cardiovasculaire globale grâce au puissant antioxydant qu’il contient, l’ubiquinol (CoQ10 active). Des taux de cholestérol adéquats favorisent la santé cardiovasculaire, car ils aident à prévenir, entre autres, les crises cardiaques et les accidents vasculaires cérébraux (AVC), qui peuvent être mortels.

Lorsqu’il est présent en quantité adéquate, le cholestérol permet à notre corps de fonctionner correctement. Cependant, de nombreux régimes alimentaires contiennent trop d’aliments qui contribuent à l’augmentation des taux de cholestérol, bien au-delà des besoins de notre corps.

    Plant Sterol Esters (90% combined beta-sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol)

    • Plant Sterol Esters look similar in structure to cholesterol, so they compete with and block about 50% of cholesterol from food and bile from being absorbed2. This competitive action reduces LDL “bad” cholesterol and total cholesterol by about 10%, without reducing HDL “good” cholesterol in the body.
    • Even a healthy diet does not provide enough Plant Sterol Esters to lower cholesterol, so supplementation is necessary to achieve adequate cholesterol-lowering doses2.

    Red Yeast Rice (Monascus purpurea – fermented Oryza sativa, Monascus purpurea – whole)

    • Works in a similar way to cholesterol-lowering medications, called statins, but with a lower risk of side effects3.
    • Inhibits the production of cholesterol in the liver, thereby lowering levels of total cholesterol by about 10% and LDL “bad” cholesterol by about 17%4.
    • Significantly decreases the occurrence of both fatal and non-fatal cardiac events4.

    Ubiquinol (Active CoQ10) as Kaneka Q+

    • Kaneka Q+ Ubiquinol is an all-natural yeast-fermented form of CoQ10 that is more well-absorbed and more readily utilized by the body than conventional inactive ubiquinone CoQ10.
    • Powerful antioxidant that helps to heal damage to blood vessels caused by high cholesterol5.
    • Improves both blood pressure and HDL “good” cholesterol levels, and reduces total cholesterol levels, thereby reducing the risk of heart disease5,6.

    Dr. Hilary's Lifestyle Tips To Reduce Cholesterol

    • Cholesterol-lowering foods: Follow a high-fibre diet comprised of vegetables, fruits, fish, lean poultry, legumes, whole grains, nuts and olive oil7.
    • Foods to avoid
      • Trans fats: These human-made fats are not naturally occurring and are harmful to the body. They are found in many packaged and fried foods and are the biggest culprit for increasing bad cholesterol and decreasing good cholesterol. Trans fats should be completely avoided in the diet.
      • Saturated fats: These are naturally occurring fats that are healthy at low levels but contribute to high cholesterol when eaten in high amounts. They are found in foods like red meat, dairy, coconut, avocado, and nuts. Try to keep saturated fats to a maximum of 6% of your daily calories, which would be about 13g per day for a standard 2000kcal diet8.
      • Sugars: Studies show that a higher intake of added sugar is associated with increased total cholesterol and LDL “bad” cholesterol, and increased risk of heart disease9. We should keep sugar in the diet as low as possible, with 25g being our daily maximum. Reading nutrition labels and avoiding sugary beverages and snacks is the best way to minimize sugar intake.
      • Foods containing cholesterol can be eaten in moderate amounts. Eggs, for example, are a healthy source of nutrients and protein, and it is recommended that we eat a maximum of 7 eggs weekly to maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
    • Maintain a healthy weight: Regular exercise and a healthy diet are important to maintaining a healthy weight, which is directly correlated with improving cholesterol levels.
    • Physical activity: Moderate intensity aerobic exercise for at least 150 minutes per week is the best type of exercise for improving HDL “good” cholesterol and reducing total and LDL “bad” and cholesterol levels10.
    • Quit smoking: Smoking is a major risk factor the development of heart disease, and when combined with high cholesterol it presents an even greater risk for heart disease than either risk factor alone11.
    • Lab testing: A cholesterol panel should be monitored as part of your annual lab work, with a baseline level established as early as 18 years of age.

    At ideal levels, cholesterol allows our body to function in a healthy way. However, many diets contain far too many foods that increase our cholesterol levels above what our bodies can use. Excess cholesterol can build up in our blood vessels, blocking oxygen from reaching our organs and causing damage to the body.
