There are thousands of cholesterol supplements and herbs on the market, which claim to be natural remedies for lowering cholesterol. Sometimes it is difficult to know which to choose, without knowing the research behind the supplements.
Policosanol is perhaps one of the most exciting additions to natural cholesterol supplementation. Derived from the coating on sugar cane, policosanol cholesterol complexes are now used in many countries to support healthy cholesterol levels.
Policosanol works by inhibiting the formation of cholesterol in the body.
In clinical studies policosanol reduced LDL cholesterol by 21 to 29% and increased HDL between 8 and 15%. Because policosanol is a blood-thinning agent, hemophiliacs and those already on warfarin (Coumadin) should be cautious in its use.
Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, adults take one (1) vegetarian capsule daily with a meal. Store in a cool, dry place and away from direct light.

All Vitabase brand products are manufactured within the USA. This is an important for quality because the FDA inspects our manufacturing facilities regularly. In other countries, governmental agencies may not necessarily exercise much control over manufacturing processes.
We source our ingredients from around the world. This is important because the best available ingredients are not necessarily made in the United States. For example, we get our liquid herbal extract ingredients from Europe because they are absolutely the best on the market.
