Gugulipid®
Plus Lactospore Gugulipid is a standardized
extract of the gum resin from Commiphora mukul (2.5% Guggulsterones
Z&E), and has been used to help support the maintenance
of healthy levels of cholesterol and blood serum lipids.
The active constituents are called Guggulsterones. Lactospore®
is a shelf-stable probiotic (minimum of 100 million sporogenes
per tablet) that produces the beneficial L(+) form of lactic
acid in the intestines. It is synergistic with Gugulipid
in healthy cholesterol maintenance. Plant sterols
such as gugulipid have been shown to be very effective in
maintaining normal cholesterol levels.

Gugulipid® (Commiphora mukul extract)
Gugulipid® is a standardized
extract for Guggulsterones Z & E used for healthy cholesterol
maintenance. It is extracted from the sap of the tree Commiphora
mukul, which is found in the rough and warm lands of India.
In multi centric studies performed on over 300 overweight
patients, Gugulipid effectively supported healthy levels
of cholesterol, total serum lipids, triglycerides, beta-lipoproteins
and HDL levels1. In addition, Gugulipid may also generate
energy by increasing metabolic processes.

Lactospore®
Lactospore® is a preparation
containing a superior sporulated strain of lactic acid producing
bacteria, Lactobacillus sporogenes. It is clinically proven
beneficial in the gastro-intestinal tract. It also restores
normal intestinal flora and supports healthy cholesterol
levels1. These spores, on activation in the environment
of the stomach, germinate and proliferate in the intestine,
producing lactic acid. The unique advantages of Lactospore®
include room temperature stability, compatibility with other
ingredients and proven effectiveness. It produces L(+)-lactic
acid only.
