more about cholesterol and the liver

Cholesterol is a fatty substance, also called a lipid, that is produced by the liver. It is also found in foods high in saturated fat, like fatty meats, egg yolks, shellfish, and whole-milk dairy products. The body needs cholesterol in order to function. It is a fundamental part of the structure and functioning of the cells, and it is also needed for the formation of various hormones. Cholesterol moves around the bloodstream packaged inside a protein called a lipoprotein. There are two different types of lipoprotein low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). LDL carries cholesterol throughout the bloodstream as LDL-C, also known as "bad" cholesterol. If you have too much LDL–C in your bloodstream, it can become a danger to your health and can lead to potentially serious conditions. HDL carries cholesterol throughout the bloodstream as HDL-C, also known as "good" cholesterol because it helps return cholesterol to the liver, where it can be eliminated from the body.

boswellia serrata

Boswella (Boswellia serrata) is also known as boswellin or "Indian frankincense," comes from the Boswellia serrata tree. Boswellia. serrata is a large branching tree that grows in the hilly regions of India. Research has identified specific active anti-inflammatory ingredients in Boswellia, which are commonly referred to as boswellic acids. In studies, these acids have been shown to significantly decrease inflammation in several ways. Boswella appears to be able to inhibit inflammation by blocking the synthesis of leukotrienes. Leukotrienes cause inflammation by promoting free radical damage, calcium dislocation, autoimmune responses, cell adhesion and the migration of inflammation-producing cells to the inflamed body area. They improve blood flow to the joints. Boswellia can help to: ease osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis symptoms and decrease back pain. Boswellia's anti-inflammatory properties can help to reduce aching and stiffness, especially when associated with low back pain. Boswellia is one of the components in Joint and Bone Combo. The other ingredients are Glucosamine,Yucca root,Chondoiton Sulfate, Rose hip, Horsetail, and Flaxseed.

bitter melon

Bitter melon contains an array of biologically active plant chemicals including triterpenes, proteins and steroids, in numerous studies, at least three different groups of constituents found in all parts of bitter melon have clinically demonstrated blood sugar-lowering properties. Bitter melon has the ability to enhance a cells uptake of glucose, to promote insulin release and to potentiate the effect of insulin. Bitter melon lowers blood sugar by increasing the activity hexokinase and glucokinase- enzymes in the body that convert sugar into glycogen stored in the liver.

In the December issue 2003 of Journal of Phytotherapy, the Doctors W Jia, W Jao, and L Tang writes “Pharmacological and clinical evaluations indicate that bitter melon had a significant blood glucose lowering effect and that the long term use may be advantageous over chemical drug in alleviating some of the chronic disease and complications caused by diabetes. The use of natural agents in conjunction with conventional drug treatment, such as insulin, permits the use of lower doses of the drug and/or decreased frequency of administration which decreases the side effects most commonly observed”. Bitter melon (Momordica charantia) and Huereque (Ibervillea sonorae) are the ingredients of Blood Sugar Combo from Nepatica.
