Promising results in fight against dyslipidemia
Oral supplement containing Hydroxytyrosol and Punicalagin could help improve Dyslipidemia in an adult population without co-adjuvant treatment
According to recently published data from a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study , supplementation with Euromed’s ingredient Pomalive®, a precise combination of standardized olive and pomegranate fruits extracts, could help to improve dyslipidemia, a condition resulting from an unbalanced distribution of different lipids (triglycerides, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and LDL cholesterol).
Researchers from the Nutrition Department, University Hospital La Paz (Madrid, Spain) found that oral intake of patent pending combined olives and pomegranate extracts (Pomalive®) for 8 weeks (n = 84) significantly reduced plasma triglycerides (p < 0.05), decreased LDL-C (p < 0.01) and increased HDL-C (p < 0.05) in middle-aged participants with dyslipidemia, without co-adjuvant treatment, and no adverse effects were observed. Currently, statins are the most effective class of drugs for improving lipid profiles but up to 10% of patients experience side-effects that reduce compliance, thus limiting the risk reduction potential. Therefore, safe and effective alternatives are of great clinical interest.
According to the researchers, the described improvements in the plasma lipid profiles of dyslipidemic subjects could contribute significantly to the improvement in endothelial dysfunction, arterial prehypertension and hypertension, as well as circulating plasma levels of oxLDL, as reported in 2019 .
Pomalive® is a patent pending precise combination of standardized polyphenols obtained from pomegranate and olive fruits. Processed with an ecofriendly, water-only technology Pure-Hydro Process®, it is free from contaminants, organic solvent residuals and toxins. The raw material of the selected fruits is grown locally in the Mediterranean region - close to the manufacturing plant - according to strict and transparent quality control protocols.
