Cholesterol and triglycerides are the main source of fat that is stored in our body.
Triglycerides and cholesterol (as arterial blood pressure) are defining markers of a healthy heart. Increased triglyceride levels and cholesterols are dangerous for the appearance of heart disorders.
If we systematically consume more calories that we need and food rich in lipids and carbohydrates, triglyceride and cholesterol levels will be increased.
Clinical studies have shown that Spiroulina PLATENSIS has a lipid degradation action.
Concisely, administration of Spiroulina PLATENSIS in patients diagnosed with high lipid levels in Crete showed that after three months the levels of triglycerides, LDL-C and TC as well as the non-HDL-C and the TC/HDL-C levels were significantly lowered.
Therefore, it is considered that Spiroulina PLATENSIS has strong effect against lipids in patients with high triglyceride levels 48.
