While each of the nutrients offers individual benefits, science is proving the synergy of these ingredients when used together at therapeutic levels is best.

Omega-3 Fish Oils
Supportive but not conclusive research shows that consumption of EPA and DHA omega-3 fatty acids may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Orthomega fish oils also meet the strictest international trade criteria for trace heavy metals such as mercury, as well as pesticide concentrations such as PCBs and dioxins. Studies show that Omega-3 fatty acids from fish are efficacious agents to reduce cardiovascular and overall mortality.

Plant Sterols
Foods containing at least 0.65 g per serving of plant sterol esters, taken twice daily with meals for a daily total intake of at least 1.3 g, as part of a diet lowin saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of heart disease. The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute of Health suggests the use of plant sterols in conjunction with other lifestyle changes to support LDL cholesterol reduction.

Pantethine
Pantethine is the precursor to cysteamine and pantothenic acid. Pantethine supports normal platelet function, endothelial responsiveness, and has overall antioxidant benefits.Two packets of Triplichol provide 900 mg of pantethine, the recommended daily dose in clinical studies.

Time-Release Niacin
Niacin is considered a first-line approach by nearly every panel, including NCEP (The National Cholesterol Education Panel), for maintaining blood lipid levels that are already in the normal range. Our wax-coated technology permits are lease that is complete in 6-8 hours, considered ideal for time-released niacin, while dramatically reducing the flushing effects found in other forms.
