Policosanol

Short Description:

Sugar cane wax extract policosanol powder, a natural compound derived from sugar cane wax,has shown promising results in clinical studies (primarily performed in cuba) and is well tolerated.Since it is derived from a food a source,sugar cane wax extract policosanol powder is classified as a nutraceutical ,or natural product.Commercial products are derived from a variety of different source (sugar cane wax, rice bran wax, beeswax,)but it is important to note that the sugar cane wax derivative was used in the Cuban studies.Policosanol powder contains about 60% octacosanol, followed by triacontanol. There is a much lower concentration of several other fatty alcohols: behenyl alcohol, lignoceryl alcohol, ceryl alcohol, 1-heptacosanol, 1-nonacosanol, 1-dotriacontanol, and geddyl alcohol. Sugar cane wax extract policosanol powder is used as a nutritional supplement intended to lower LDL cholesterol and increase HDL cholesterol and to help prevent atherosclerosis, though some studies have raised questions about the effectiveness of policosanol.

What is Policosanol?

Policosanol is a natural blend of long-chain fatty alcohols derived from plant waxes, primarily sugarcane and rice bran . Key components include octacosanol (66%), triacontanol, and hexacosanol, which work synergistically to support lipid metabolism and cardiovascular health .

Key Benefits

Cholesterol Management
- Reduces LDL (“bad” cholesterol) and increases HDL (“good” cholesterol) through dual mechanisms: inhibiting cholesterol synthesis and enhancing LDL receptor activity .
- Clinical studies show LDL reduction by up to 27% and HDL increase by 17% with 20mg daily doses .
Cardiovascular Support
- Improves endothelial function and reduces oxidative stress, lowering risks of atherosclerosis and hypertension .
- Exhibits antiplatelet activity, potentially preventing thrombosis without increasing bleeding risk .
Antioxidant & Anti-inflammatory Properties
- Neutralizes free radicals and reduces inflammatory markers like TNF-α, supporting vascular health .
Diabetes & Metabolic Health
- May improve insulin sensitivity and glycemic control, beneficial for individuals with metabolic syndrome .
