Food supplement useful for normal blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
Indications
Insulipid is a food supplement based on Berberine, Fermented Red Rice, Trans-Resveratrol, Chromium, Q10. Spirulina algae has a supporting and restorative action, Chromium contributes to the normal metabolism of macronutrients and the maintenance of normal blood glucose levels.
Components
- Berberine: has cholesterol-lowering properties and hypoglycemic activity. A scientific study published in Nature in 2014 showed that the lipid-lowering action of berberine (anticholesterol and antitriglyceride) is produced by a completely different mechanism than that of statins, which, as mentioned, inhibit the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase. In fact, treatment with berberine is associated with increased membrane expression of a receptor protein capable of internalizing LDL, which does not involve the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase. Essentially, berberine is able to increase the expression of the LDL receptor but could likely also reduce cholesterol levels by inhibiting cholesterol absorption and increasing its secretion. The hypoglycemic action is produced by the increase in the expression of the GLUT-4 receptor which promotes the uptake of glucose by muscle or adipose cells.
- Monacolin K: inhibits the synthesis of the HMG-CoA-reductase enzyme in the biosynthesis of cholesterol.
- Coenzyme Q10: intervenes in the redox reactions involved in the synthesis of ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
- Spirulina Algae: phycocyanin is the main active ingredient of Spirulina responsible for the hypolipidemic activity. It affects the solubility of cholesterol itself, leading to increased fecal excretion of cholesterol and bile acids.
- Chromium Picolinate: regulates carbohydrate metabolism and appetite, aiding in insulin resistance and glucose intolerance. It promotes the reduction of fat mass and increase of lean mass.
- Trans-Resveratrol: has antioxidant and cardioprotective properties. It inhibits some processes that lead to the development of cardiovascular diseases, protects vessels from plaque formation and the proliferation of smooth muscle tissue, stimulates the production of nitric oxide responsible for vasodilation processes, and inhibits platelet activation and aggregation, the first step in the formation of clots that can cause heart attacks and strokes. It lowers total cholesterol levels and reduces circulating fat.
