Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE

Why It Works

Drawing on his 20+ years of clinical practice, Dr. Kevin Passero formulated Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE to provide the most powerful natural solution for balancing cholesterol levels. It provides five clinically proven ingredients that he has found to be the most effective for his patients who need advanced support to bring their cholesterol levels into a healthy range quickly.

Organic Red Yeast Rice (1,600 mg)
Used as a cardiovascular remedy in Traditional Chinese Medicine for over 700 years, red yeast rice is one of the most well-researched and validated natural ingredients ever studied for lowering cholesterol and reducing cardiovascular risk factors. And it can be pivotal in helping you achieve the healthy, balanced cholesterol levels you need for long-term heart health—without undesirable side effects.

Dozens of clinical studies confirm red yeast rice's effectiveness and safety. One landmark clinical trial on participants who took red yeast rice extract daily (1,200 mg) produced compelling results after just 8 weeks with total cholesterol down 23% and LDL cholesterol down 31%. Best of all, 93% of study participants experienced improvements. This last statistic is incredible because very few studies show this high of an effectiveness rate for natural cholesterol control.

Red yeast rice is made by fermenting white rice with a type of yeast called Monascus purpureus. As a result of the fermentation process, the rice turns bright reddish purple. Red yeast rice contains an array of natural cholesterol-lowering compounds, including plant sterols, flavonoids and isoflavones which block an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver.

In addition to its clinically proven ability to lower cholesterol levels, red yeast rice supports cardiovascular health in several other ways:

• Lowers levels of C-reactive-protein (CRP), a key inflammatory marker known to have negative impacts on the cardiovascular system
• Promotes healthy blood pressure, as confirmed by a 2019 systematic review of clinical studies and a 2021 multicenter study
• Supports healthy blood sugar metabolism, with studies showing reductions in fasting blood sugar with the daily intake of red yeast rice

Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE is made with exceptionally pure, organic red yeast rice, which helps ensure that our product contains no harmful pesticide or herbicide residues. This, along with a cutting-edge fermentation and extraction process and our rigorous safety and quality control measures, ensures that Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE is made with the safest, most effective red yeast rice available on the market.

Plus every single batch is lab tested to be 100% free of citrinin, a potentially unhealthy by-product of the red yeast rice fermentation process.

Bergamonte® Citrus Bergamot (1,000 mg)
Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE features a 1,000 mg extra-strength dose of standardized, patented Bergamonte® citrus bergamot extract. There's no other nutrient available that's so effective at addressing a wide range of common cardiovascular risk factors. It does this by delivering a >38% concentration of the potent polyphenols scientifically proven in 200+ research papers to dramatically improve multiple aspects of cardiovascular health.

Remarkably, Bergamonte® has been shown to reduce “bad” LDL cholesterol by 36%, increase “good” HDL cholesterol by 40%, and decrease triglycerides by 39% within 30 days. And it’s the only citrus bergamot backed by 14 published human clinical trials demonstrating its effectiveness.

Bergamonte® is the only citrus bergamot extract standardized to provide specific, clinically proven levels of five active polyphenols (naringin, neohesperidin, neoeriocitrin, melitidin and brutieridin) shown to improve multiple aspects of cardiovascular health. Bergamonte® is also the only citrus bergamot extract that has been validated in 14 published, high-quality human clinical trials. And it’s the only citrus bergamot extract validated to be free of compounds known to interfere with other medications.

In a landmark scientific study led by a leading university, participants took 1,000 mg of Bergamonte® daily, producing these astounding results in just 30 days, with results that kept improving over time:

• Total cholesterol dropped 29%
• LDL cholesterol plunged 36%*
• Triglycerides dropped 39%*
• Blood sugar levels fell 22%*

And perhaps the most amazing part of this study is that “good” HDL cholesterol jumped by 40%! This is impressive because this type of cholesterol is responsible for removing the dangerous form of cholesterol from your blood stream, and very few nutrients have a positive impact like this.

Bergamonte® is made from citrus bergamot grown and harvested in Southern Italy, where it is indigenous. Most citrus bergamot formulas feature generic citrus bergamot (usually grown in Asia) that is inferior in effectiveness and purity.

Beware of supplements that contain untested or generic citrus bergamot that has no clinical backing, or a significantly lower 500 mg dose of Bergamonte®, which is shown to be not nearly as effective as the 1,000 mg dosage.

Ubiqsome® CoQ10 Phytosome™ (50 mg)
Maintaining adequate levels of CoQ10 is critical to your cardiovascular and overall health. This unique antioxidant plays a major role in producing the energy needed to power your body’s hardest working organ—your heart.

Plus, red yeast rice has the potential to deplete CoQ10 levels. While our formula is designed to minimize CoQ10 depletion, Dr. Passero felt it was important to include CoQ10 to counterbalance any possible depletion—and because CoQ10 is so vitally important for overall cardiovascular health. Inferior red yeast rice products that are not formulated with CoQ10 can deplete levels, causing unanticipated health problems.

Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE includes a clinical strength 50 mg dose of Ubiqsome® CoQ10 Phytosome™. Clinically proven, Italian-sourced Ubiqsome™ leverages cutting-edge phytosome technology to deliver CoQ10 directly into cells with absorption that’s up to 900% better than what standard CoQ10 provides.

Notably, Ubiqsome® is also the only supplemental CoQ10 on the market backed by scientific evidence proving its ability to be absorbed into muscle cells.

Standardized Olive Leaf Extract (100 mg)
Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE is enhanced with a potent 100 mg dose of ultra-pure, standardized olive leaf extract for additional cardiovascular support. Rich in a powerful inflammation-fighting polyphenol called oleuropein, olive leaf extract has been clinically proven to provide extra support for healthy lipid metabolism and arterial health.

Unlike typical olive leaf extracts, ours is made with freshly picked leaves sourced from olive trees grown in Spain. The leaves are processed immediately after harvest to retain the full potency of their polyphenols, yielding a highly effective full-spectrum extract that is standardized to provide 20% oleuropein.

Non-GMO Vitamin C (50 mg)
This advanced formula also features 50 mg of non-GMO vitamin C. Studies have shown that bergamot enriched with vitamin C helps your body more efficiently utilize the cholesterol-balancing properties of citrus bergamot. Vitamin C also provides additional antioxidant benefits. Most vitamin C on the market comes from genetically modified sources. We are sure to use premium-grade, non-GMO vitamin C in Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE. Very few supplements featuring citrus bergamot also include vitamin C, thus missing the mark on important synergies.

A Superior, Holistic Approach to Balancing Cholesterol
Dr. Passero has found that combining the five ingredients in the formula provides the most comprehensive and effective natural approach to managing cholesterol levels and promoting optimal cardiovascular health.

If you are looking for the best umbrella of protection for your heart and overall cardiovascular system, Durable CHOLESTEROL COMPLETE is the solution you need.
