CHOLESTEGEM gemmotherapy complex controls your cholesterol. It helps to equilibrate the lipid profile by stabilizing the levels of "good cholesterol" and in reducing the levels of "bad cholesterol".

This concentrated organic herbal remedy is an association of five bud extracts ...

• Sweet Almond bud extract - organic buds have the property of lowering blood triglycerides and play an important role in hyperlipaemia and thrombophilia, especially for ageing people. It improves blood circulation and is thus useful in hypercoagulation phenomena of people with "too thick" blood. An excellent bud with action complementary to the one of rosemary.
• Olive bud extract - organic tree young shoots, because of their effect on blood, are recommended for atherosclerosis and cerebral arteriosclerosis (without thrombosis). Great remedy for blood circulation, olive tree extract reduces the total fats and cholesterol (which it destroys), balances the phospholipids and makes "thick blood" more fluid. It is an excellent remedy complementary to rosemary.
• Rosemary bud extract - organic 's young shoots normalize the blood sedimentation rate, capture free radicals and increase the level of red blood cells. Rosemary extract detoxifies the body, lowers triglycerides, urea, uric acid and cholesterol and restores the mineral and ionic balance.
• Birch bud extract - organic buds stimulate every catabolism; they activate the diuresis and the elimination of organic wastes such as uric acid and cholesterol. This bud extract is a general drainer for the liver (anti-toxic).
• Linden tree bud extract - organic buds contribute to the detoxification of the body, mainly of cholesterol and uric acid, which softens gout and promotes weight loss. They also help to make blood more fluid.

… and three essential oils working in synergy:

• Pepermint essential oil - organic essential oil is well known for softening the fire element (PITA) and shows thus a cooling effect traditionally used for food. Its contribution in this complex is an energetic dispersion of internal heat excess (cholesterol) and a digestion-enhancing function by activation of bile, liver and pancreas functions.
• Atlas Cedar essential oil - organic essential oil acts on the lymphatic circulation and has a congestion relieving effect.
• Rosemary Verbenone essential oil - organic essential oil has at the same time a circulatory and a hepatic function which are good complements to the action of rosemary mother macerate. This oil has a cholesterolitic action, supports hepatic regeneration and allows a better biliary fluidity, preventing gallstones (cholesterol) at the same time. It regularizes the general hepatobiliary function and acts in dyslipemia (hypertriglyceridaemia).
