About Cholesterol Support

Cholesterol is a fatty substance used by the body to make hormones as well as substances that help in proper food digestion. But if cholesterol levels are too high, the LDL cholesterol circulating in the blood can build up to create deposits of plaque that narrow the arteries, making them less flexible and contributing to an increased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and stroke. It's important to participate in a plan of action for good cholesterol support, so that the levels of HDL, or good cholesterol, outweigh the levels of LDL, or bad cholesterol.

Consuming a low-fat diet, eliminating foods from the diet that contain cholesterol, and including more plant foods and fiber in the diet to help lower blood cholesterol levels are all good ways to achieve healthy cholesterol support. But there are also vitamins and minerals that specifically target cholesterol levels, helping to boost HDL cholesterol levels at the same time decreasing LDL levels.

Supplements containing plant sterols and stanols are an effective way to significantly decrease the amount of unhealthy LDL cholesterol in the bloodstream. Omega-3 from fish oil, a combination of EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), can help to thin the blood and prevent the build-up of plaque in the arteries.

Soluble fiber such as a psyllium soluble-fiber supplement has proven beneficial for providing proper cholesterol support. Coenzyme Q10, also known as CoQ10, is a potent antioxidant that works to prevent LDL cholesterol from sticking to blood vessel walls in addition to supporting good heart health. Niacin is a B vitamin that helps to boost HDL or good cholesterol levels at the same time reducing LDL or bad cholesterol levels.
