Policosanol
Policosanol is a blend of compounds isolated from natural plant waxes. Policosanol is derived mainly from sugar cane. Policosanol contains several long chain fatty alcohols, including octacosanol, hexacosanol and triacontanol. Numerous clinical studies have shown that these compounds may support the cardiovascular system and inhibit lipid peroxidation as well as support macrophage activity.Policosanol appears to work by inhibiting the body``s synthesis of cholesterol. It is also shown to help maintain normal cholesterol production in the liver, and to promote normal ldl-cholesterol uptake by the body``s tissues. It has been proved from the clinical studies that policosanol does not inhibit the hmg-coa enzyme, but it may inhibit a different enzyme. What makes policosanol exciting is that it has other actions against heart disease in addition to lowering cholesterol.
