Product Description
Pure Encapsulations CholestePure Plus has phytosterols are naturally occurring plant compounds structurally similar to cholesterol, with over 30 years of research and 40 clinical trials supporting their role in promoting healthy lipid metabolism. CholestePure Plus combines a unique blend of phytosterols, berberine, and clinically studied bergamot extract to support cardiovascular and metabolic health. Phytosterols help regulate cholesterol absorption by competing for space in micelles—particles responsible for transporting cholesterol across the intestinal lining—thereby promoting cholesterol excretion through bile acids. The pine-derived phytosterols in this formula offer benefits comparable to those from other sources, ensuring comprehensive lipid support.
Bergamot, a citrus fruit rich in flavonoids like hesperidin and naringenin, provides additional cardiometabolic benefits by modulating HMG CoA reductase, a key enzyme in lipid biosynthesis. Clinical studies have demonstrated that bergamot extract helps maintain cholesterol and lipid levels within a healthy range, with a 30-day study involving 192 participants showing positive effects on lipid balance. Additionally, berberine, an alkaloid known for its activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), plays a crucial role in energy regulation and cardiovascular function. Research indicates that Berbervis berberine phytosome, featured in this formula, is four times more bioavailable than standard berberine, enhancing its effectiveness in maintaining lipid levels within the normal range. Together, these clinically backed ingredients in CholestePure Plus provide comprehensive support for heart health, metabolic balance, and overall well-being.
