Putting the Zest in Your Heart
Tring, United Kingdom, January 12, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Solgar Vitamin & Herb is proud to announce the launch of Sytrinol, a new breakthrough product aimed at supporting the maintenance of cardiovascular health. Sytrinol is a proprietary patented formula that contains polymethoxylated flavones (PMFs) from citrus fruits and and a range of alpha, delta, and gamma tocotrienols that are derived from palm fruits.
PMFs belong to a vast group of plant compounds known as citrus bioflavonoids, which are widely regarded as being an important part of a varied diet. This is primarily due to their impressive antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Tocotrienols are part of the vitamin E family and are known to possess antioxidant potential far greater than that shown by vitamin E itself.
Figures published in 2003 show that cardiovascular disease (CVD) cost the European Union €169 billion, this cost equated to €230 for every man, woman, and child in the EU's 25 member states. CVD severely affected the daily lives of 4.4 million people – one in every 100 citizens and resulted in 2 million deaths and 126 million hospital bed days per year. These are shocking statistics and help to illustrate the severity of this disease.
The PMFs and tocotrienols found in Sytrinol have been researched for their role in the maintenance of cardiovascular health. Research suggests that they may help to promote healthy cholesterol levels and protect LDL cholesterol from oxidation. This occurs by blocking key enzymes in triglyceride formation and increasing the rate of degradation of key enzyme in LDL cholesterol synthesis. It is also suggested that the blend of PMFs and tocotrienols within Sytrinol possess far superior cholesterol balancing properties than other natural alternatives such as guggulipids, plant sterols and red yeast rice extract.
Furthermore, Sytrinol does not have the side effects associated with cholesterol-lowering drugs and does not have an adverse effect on CoQ10 levels, unlike statins.
Sytrinol is marketed in the UK by Solgar Vitamin & Herb and will have an RRP of £27.95, available from 1st January 2007. For more information, please contact either Marie Kendall or Sarah Hibbert on +44 (0) 1442 890355 who are immediately available for interview, or click on www.solgar-vitamins.co.uk.
