Bergamot for Heart Health and Cholesterol ManagementHelps maintain healthy cholesterol levels by reducing total cholesterol, LDL, and triglycerides and increasing HDLPromotes the maintenance of healthy blood sugar levelsFlavonoids provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support for healthy blood vesselsMany lifestyle factors, especially diet, can contribute to cardiovascular health. Consumption of highly processed, high-fat, low-fiber sugary foods has been linked to increased total cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar levels.While cholesterol is necessary for several physiological processes in the body, excessive amounts cause atherosclerosis. Furthermore, the HDL ratio is an equally important parameter regarding the risk of cholesterol-related health problems. Conventional treatments aim to stop cholesterol production in the liver by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, which is the key enzyme. However, this approach does not increase HDL levels to eliminate excess cholesterol already present, it does not resolve the glucose metabolism deregulation, and it can lead to significant negative side effects. For these reasons, a multi-targeted approach would be more beneficial. Cholesterol control is bergamot (Citrus bergamia), a citrus fruit with a diverse and highly concentrated flavonoid profile, making it very beneficial for many cardiovascular processes. The polyphenols in bergamot possess antioxidant properties. Some of the flavonoids in bergamot have a mechanism of action similar to that of conventional cholesterol-lowering drugs, while others offer the added benefit of also increasing HDL to trap free cholesterol. Additionally, its antioxidant properties can prevent inflammation related to vascular damage, giving Cholesterol Control a holistic role in managing the risks associated with cardiovascular problems. AOR Cholesterol Control contains a proprietary bergamot extract that has been extensively researched for its cardiovascular benefits. Other bergamot extract products may not be as effective because they are not standardized for the same amounts of active ingredients as Cholesterol Control.
