Information on your cholesterol-lowering and menopausal supplements

Dear Marina,

our Omega-3 supplements are helpful in normalizing blood lipid values:

• triglycerides
• HDL
• total cholesterol
• LDL

Your husband can continue taking 1-2 pearls of Omegor Vitality 1000: this can be combined with Cardiol, a cholesterol control supplement rich in active ingredients and vitamins that can promote cardiovascular health. In particular, Omega-3 EPA and DHA help to:

• Reduce blood triglycerides;
• Promote the elevation of "good" HDL cholesterol;
• Stabilizethe heart rate and rhythm.

Fermented red rice, bioflavonoids, policosanols, tocotrienols, and vitamin B3 work synergistically by effectively promoting the reduction of LDLcholesterol, the so-called"bad cholesterol." Cardiol, thanks to folic acid and vitamin B12, helps reduce levels of plasma homocysteine, a metabolite with damaging action on the vascular endothelium. Through the provision of optimal amounts of antioxidants, such as resveratrol, Coenzyme Q10, sesamin and piperine, it helps counter oxidative stress, a major cause of cellular deterioration.

The recommended dose for Cardiol is 1 pearl per day, taken preferably before dinner and for a period of at least 8 weeks. After this initial period, repeat testing will show the effect of supplementation. Please inform your treating physician if you choose to startdietary supplementation in conjunction with other drug therapies. You may instead take Omegor Antiage, a dietary supplement of Omega-3 EPA and DHA, gamma-linolenic acid GLA from borage oil, and a synergistic complex of antioxidants. Several scientific studies have shown that the combination of Omega-3 and Omega-6 is particularly useful for:

• Ensuring proper skin trophism;
• Play an effective anti-inflammatory action;
• Balancing mood.

Theanti-inflammatory effect of GLA has also been studied to counter excessive skin dryness, skin aging and atopic eczema. The formulation of Omegor Antiage also includes important nutrients with strong antioxidant activity (Resveratrol, Curcumin, Tocotrienols and Coenzyme Q10) that can:

• Counteract the formation of free radicals;
• Prevent the inflammatory and oxidative processes that underlie cellular aging.

The recommended dose is 1 pearl per day, taken before a main meal. If you want to increase your daily intake of Omega-3 fatty acids, you can combine Omegor Antiage with 1 pearl of Omegor Vitality 1000. I hope I have been helpful, I remain available for further information.

Sincerely,

Dr. Rosaria Ramondino Pharmacist and Pharmaceutical Chemist
