Lower Your Cholesterol to Healthy Levels with Natural Health Products

Posted By: Chris Robertson | Posted On: 2008-11-29 | Article ID: 120977

If you suffer from high cholesterol and want to avoid certain prescription medications, you might benefit from alternative natural health products that have cholesterol-lowering properties. Though a doctor should be consulted before stopping any prescription drugs, using a natural health product might prove to be just as effective if not more so than those prescribed. The key is to find health products that work for your needs and fit your lifestyle and budget.

Herbs and other nature-based health products have been around for thousands of years and come from natural sources including plants and trees. Though not all herbs affect cholesterol levels, there are some that can lower cholesterol tremendously while also promoting overall good men's health or women's health as well as natural weight loss. Some of these are vitamin B, chromium, fiber, coenzyme Q10, garlic, pantothine, grape seed extract, red yeast rice, vitamin c, soy, and royal jelly.

What is Cholesterol?

Cholesterol is the most potent steroid found in animal tissues, particularly in gall and bile stones. It is present in the foods we eat, mostly in animal fats. Within the body's blood cells, cholesterol forms into a waxy substance. There is "good" and "bad" cholesterol. The good cholesterol called HDL (high-density lipoprotein) can protect your body and reduce risk of cardiovascular disease. Bad cholesterol is called LDL (low-density lipoprotein), and too much of this type can cause plaque to form within and clog your arteries, thus, increasing your risk of heart disease.

It's normal for everyone to have certain amounts of good and bad cholesterol. The key to healthy cholesterol levels is to use health products or medicines to help balance the amount of good and bad cholesterol in your body. Certain health products and nutritional supplements along with a good diet and regular exercise can reduce your risk of heart disease and help you feel better overall.

Finding a Solution

Though there are many health products on the market that claim to lower your cholesterol naturally, one product called Bios Life by Unicity has been clinically proven to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) by an average of 20 percent. In a recent study, participants with high LDL levels experienced an LDL cholesterol reduction of 31 percent. Participants with low amounts of good cholesterol (HDL) reported an average increase in HDL levels of up to 29 percent. With results like this, it's no wonder Bios Life is raising eyebrows in both the medical and natural health worlds.

Bios Life is a fiber and nutrient drink that combines all four known approaches to lowering harmful cholesterol. It helps to block re-absorption of cholesterol in the intestinal tract and block absorption of cholesterol that comes directly from food after digestion. It reduces the cholesterol produced by the liver and enhances enzymatic breakdown and removal of bad cholesterol. The ingredients used in Bios Life to combat cholesterol are soluble and insoluble fibers, policosanol, phytosterols, and chrysanthemum extract.

Natural health products such as Unicity's Bios Life are easy to use, affordable when compared to many medications, and can provide a great source of nutrition for other health needs or for natural weight loss. With nutritional supplements, you can lower your cholesterol without fear of negative side effects.

Speak with your doctor about natural alternatives to lower your cholesterol, and go online today to check out Bios Life and other natural, cholesterol-lowering health products. Your good heart health is definitely worth the extra research!
