About Cardio-Edge

Now you can take the edge off your cholesterol with Cardio-Edge. Cardio-Edge supplies Sytrinol (a patented combination of polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) from citrus fruit and tocotrienols from palm), plant sterols and standardized pomegranate extract. The combination of Sytrinol, plant sterols and pomegranate extract results in a formula that embodies the most recent science to help maintain cardiovascular health and support healthy cholesterol levels.

Sytrinol - A unique and powerful ingredient for maintaining cholesterol health. 3 mechanisms to modify cholesterol and triglycerides:

1) Decrease apoprotein B, needed for LDL synthesis

2) Decrease action of an enzyme in the liver that makes triglycerides

3) Inhibit HMG-CoA reductase in the liver

Patented combination of citrus PMFs and alpha, delta and gamma tocotrienols derived from palm fruit (U.S. patents #6,251,400, and #6,239,114). Palm tocotrienols have been shown to inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the enzyme responsible for regulating cholesterol synthesis in the liver.

Clinical studies in both animals and humans support Sytrinol's role in reducing total and LDL-cholesterol as well as triglycerides.

Plant Sterols

Blood cholesterol is derived from the diet and synthesized in the liver. Sterols work by reducing the absorption of both forms of cholesterol - Sterols compete with cholesterol for absorption. Sterols and sterol esters can now be found in many foods including orange juice, rice drink, and margarine.

Pomegranate

Recent science has been focusing on the cardioprotective aspects of pomegranate. These brightly colored fruits contains numerous cornpounds known for their antioxidant capabilities, induding anthocyanidins, catechins, tannis, and gallic and ellagic acids. Research has shown that supplementation with pomegranate juice can decrease macrophage lipid accumulation, and cellular cholesterol accumulation in mice. Recently, research in humans has confirmed a beneficial effect of consuming pomegranate juice on parameters such as LDL oxidation, blood pressure, and blood vessel health.

Warning:

Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effect

No adverse side effects reported. Interaction with Statin not expected.

Clinical Studies

In human clinical studies involving hypercholesterolernic subjects:

4 weeks of supplementing with a daily dose of 300 mg of Sytrinol resulted in:

• Average reductions of total cholesterol by 20-24%

• Average reductions of LDLcholesterol by 19-22%

• Average reductions of triglycerides by 24~28%

• LDL/HDL ratio was significantly improved.
