What is Cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a white, fatty substance found in the bloodstream. There are two types of cholesterol: LDL and HDL. LDL cholesterol is considered bad because it transports cholesterol from the liver through the bloodstream, where it can be deposited . HDL cholesterol is considered good because it acts as the bus that picks up cholesterol from the bloodstream and carries it back to the liver for disposal.
About 30% of American adults have total cholesterol levels above 200 mg/mL. That's why it's important to know about tocotrienols.
What are tocotrienols?
Found within select natural botanicals, tocotrienols are a specialized class of phyto-nutrients that can help you effectively manage your cholesterol levels.* These powerful antioxidants also protect against free radical damage.
Manage your cholesterol with tocotrienols
Over a dozen studies have been published on the pharmacological effects of tocotrienols. Several have found that tocotrienols help maintain cholesterol levels that are already within the normal range.* Others show that tocotrienols protect cholesterol from oxidation - which further supports the health of the arteries.*
But keep in mind...not all tocotrienols are the same. There are four types of tocotrienols: alpha, gamma, delta and beta. Research suggests that the delta variety may be 30 times more effective than the others!
LIPIDEME™. The Natural and Advanced Way to Promote Heart and Cardiovascular Health.
According the American Heart Association,
Evidence from prospective secondary prevention studies suggests that taking EPA+DHA ranging from 0.5 to 1.8 grams per day (either as fatty fish or supplements) significantly reduces deaths from heart disease and all causes.

Omega-3 fatty acids benefit the heart of healthy people, and those at high risk of — or who have — cardiovascular disease.
We buy insurance to protect our homes, cars and health. Why not follow the American Heart Association recommendations and protect your most valuable possession, your Heart?
Thousands of clinical studies PROVE that taking Omega-3 fatty acids daily can significantly reduce the risk of dying from a major cardiac event such as heart attack or stroke.
It's clear that taking an Omega-3 supplement can boost heart health, in addition to the many other positive health benefits of Omega-3s including healthy eyes, brain and immune system.
Is LIPIDEME™ the BEST Omega-3 Supplement on the Market?
Answer: YES! LIPIDEME™ is the purest, most concentrated Omega-3 product and the only product to combine Omega-3s with three other potent, heart healthy and medically proven ingredients.
Why is LIPIDEME™ the BEST?
Concentrated Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids EPA & DHA.
Off the shelf, common store bought fish oil products are HIGH IN FAT! Look at the labels…typical fish oil products contain between 30-50% Omega-3s. That means 50-70% non-Omega-3 FAT!
LIPIDEME™ contains ultrapure, toxin free and molecularly distilled fish oil that is greater than 86% pure Omega-3 fatty acids.
The US Food and Drug Administration and the American Heart Association all recommend the consumption of Omega-3 fatty acids from fish and state that Omega-3s provide much needed protection for your heart.
With over 86% pure omega-3 fatty acids, LIPIDEME™ is the most concentrated Omega-3 fish oil you can buy without a prescription. Just one serving of LIPIDEME™ provides 1376 mg Omega-3s.
The dose-response relationship between phytosterol intake and LDL-cholesterol lowering effect. Based on Katan et al.
Phytosterols
Phytosterols are natural, plant derived compounds that when taken in appropriate amounts, block the absorption of cholesterol from your diet.* Phytosterol administration has been proven to result in lower serum levels of bad cholesterol (LDL), yet show no reduction in good cholesterol, (HDL).
Phytosterols used in conjunction with fish oil help to ensure that only the good omega-3 fatty acids are absorbed and not residual cholesterol.
Combined with a healthy diet high in vegetables and fruits, LIPIDEME™ provides the right amount of phytosterols to help lower your cholesterol naturally.
The US FDA issued an authorized health claim stating that:
"Foods containing at least 0.65 gram per serving of vegetable oil sterol esters, eaten twice a day with meals for a daily total intake of at least 1.3 grams, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease."

Tocotrienols
Tocotrienols, part of the vitamin E family, are 40-60 times more potent antioxidants than the common form of vitamin E, tocopherol*. Research shows that delta and gamma tocotrienols inhibit cholesterol production in the liver*. Tocotrienols act on the same enzyme as common statin drugs; however, there are no side effects associated with tocotrienol consumption. Tocotrienols do not affect liver health, do not deplete the body of Coenzyme Q10 and do not cause side effects such as muscle weakness or, in the extreme, rhabdomyositis.
Tocotrienols are not well absorbed in the presence of their tocopherol cousins (common vitamin E), so be sure to take LIPIDEME™ at least 2 hours apart from other dietary supplements containing common vitamin E.
Coenzyme Q10
The final ingredient in LIPIDEME™ is Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10 or ubiquinone). CoQ10 has been the subject of thousands of clinical trials and has been shown to be a potent antioxidant and to boost energy, especially in cardiac muscle tissue*. As we age, take statin drugs, or experience disease, our body's ability to manufacture CoQ10 is severely diminished. CoQ10 is commonly recommended by physicians such as Cardiologists in conjunction with treatments for coronary heart disease.
