Glucavena and Cholestree work excellently together

There are two natural, well-researched ingredients that lower high cholesterol: beta-glucan and plant sterol.  Both have been granted a health claim approved by the European health authority for lowering high cholesterol. Our selection includes two effective products, of which Glucavena contains more beta-glucan than any other product on the market, and it is designed to be used together with Cholestree, a capsule-form product that contains plant sterol. Together, Glucavena and Cholestree form an effective and complementary combination. Now, let's go through why these products work well together.

Glucavena is a drink powder that contains a very high amount of oat beta-glucan – a water-soluble fiber that lowers total and LDL cholesterol levels. The mechanism is very clear and scientifically recognized:

 Beta-glucan binds bile acids in the intestine. Since bile acids are formed in the liver from cholesterol, their binding to beta-glucan and removal from the body forces the liver to use more cholesterol to form new bile acids, resulting in a decrease in LDL cholesterol and an overall improvement in cholesterol levels.

But the benefits of beta-glucan do not end here.It also promotes blood sugar control by slowing down the absorption of carbohydrates and stabilizing blood sugar spikes. Beta-glucan supports gut health by acting as a prebiotic, providing nourishment for beneficial gut bacteria. Several studies also demonstrate the anti-inflammatory effects of beta-glucan, which is significant for cardiovascular health and our overall well-being.

Cholestree, on the other hand, contains plant sterols, which are compounds derived from pine oil and are structurally very similar to cholesterol. They affect cholesterol reduction through a completely different mechanism than beta-glucan.

Cholesterol in the diet – as well as cholesterol excreted from the body's own metabolism – ends up partially in the intestine.In the intestine, plant sterols compete with cholesterol for absorption, preventing it from re-entering the bloodstream. This results in less cholesterol being absorbed back into the blood, and the blood LDL level decreases.

These two, beta-glucan and plant sterols, along with Glucavena and Cholestree, thus affect different points in metabolism, but both aim for the same goal: to effectively and naturally reduce LDL cholesterol, without side effects.

When used together, they support each other. Glucavena is taken in the morning, and Cholestree capsules are taken in the morning and evening.
