Soy Protein
The U.S. Food and Drug Association has confirmed that soy protein can help lower cholesterol. Unlike animal protein, soy protein contains no harmful saturated fats or cholesterol. Soy protein contains high-fiber and heart healthy Omega-3 fatty acids and isoflavones. These fatty acids and isoflavones facilitate good cardiovascular health by inhibiting biological changes that narrow arteries and lead to heart disease. Del Mar Nutrition's products are packed with healthy Omega 3 fatty acids, often missing in Western diets.
Oats
Long recognized as an important part of a healthy heart diet, oats are nutritious and filled with cholesterol fighting soluble fiber. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has determined that a diet rich in oats contributes to a reduced risk of heart disease.
Chlorella
Chlorella reduces blood pressure and stimulates the body's immune function. This unicell algae is a whole food high in chlorophyll, proteins, enzymes, minerals, beta carotene, vitamins, and essential fatty acids. Rich in nucleic acid and Vitamin B-12, Chlorella can regulate and naturally lower cholesterol levels, control antiviral activity, and encourage the growth of healthy bacteria.
Spirulina
Spirulina is a tiny one cell algae widely acknowledged to lower cholesterol levels. Spirulina is 60% all vegetable protein, rich in beta-carotene, iron and Vitamin B-12. Twenty-first century scientists have verified the benefits of spirulina as an extraordinary food. It contains 8 essential amino acids, and 10 out of 12 non essential amino acids along with heart healthy fatty acids.
Walnuts
This delicious nut is an excellent source of omega 3 essential fatty acids, a special type of protective fat the body cannot manufacture. Walnuts' concentration of omega 3s (a quarter-cup provides 90.8% of the daily recommended intake) makes it an excellent heart healthy ingredient.
Bee Pollen
Bee pollen is one of nature's most potent nutritional antioxidants. It contains vitamins A, B complex series, C, D, E, K and Rutin. It is one of the few vegetable sources rich in vitamin B-12 and may contribute to normal serum cholesterol levels. Scientists have reported that, ingested regularly, bee pollen reduces low-density lipoproteins LDL (bad) and increases high-density lipoproteins HDL (good) cholesterol.
