Policosanol

Introduction

Policosanol, a mixture of nine high primary aliphatic alcohols, is a derivative of sugar cane wax that has been found to have the same mechanism of action as many cholesterol medications without harming levels of CoQ10. Octacosanol, the main component in policosanol, works as a powerful antioxidant to help maintain healthy arteries. This in turn lowers LDL in the bloodstream, helping to support healthy cholesterol levels. In addition to octacosanol, policosanol is made up of eight other aliphatic alcohols that are also helpful in promoting cardiovascular health.
