Policosanol 10mg - Unique Blend of Waxy Plants Now in Capsules
Policosanol 10mg from EssentialSeries is a dietary supplement in vegetable capsules made from sugar cane wax extract (sugar-free), with a guaranteed 90% Policosanol content, equivalent to 10mg of the compound per vegetable capsule, and also standardized for the main characteristic alcohol of its composition and effects: Octacosanol, providing 6.6mg per capsule.
Policosanols are the chemical name for a mixture of high molecular weight primary aliphatic alcohols (20–36 carbons), which are constituents of plant epicuticular waxes. They consist of a mixture of long-chain alcohols such as docosanol (22:0), hexacosanol (26:0), octacosanol (28:0), triacontanol (30:0), and dotriacontanol (32:0) (Harrabi et al 2009). The relevance of policosanols lies in the physiological functions they have in plants.
HSN Policosanol is obtained from one of the best natural sources: Sugar cane wax.
Discover All the Quality Guarantees of HSN Policosanol
Natural Origin: From Sugar Cane Wax (Sugar-Free)
Policosanols are extracted from waxy plants, the most common sources being alfalfa leaves, wheat, wheat germ, yam, and sugar cane, with its wax (the part that contains no sugars) being the best natural source of policosanol.
The problem with other raw materials is the intrinsic or cross presence of allergens. Thanks to the use of sugar cane wax extract for our product, HSN Policosanol 10mg is allergen-free.
Standardization to 90% Policosanol (10mg / Capsule)
Each capsule of our Policosanol contains 11.1mg of sugar cane wax extract, with a standardized Policosanol content of 90%.
This guarantees a Policosanol content of 10mg per vegetable capsule, a high concentration considering that the determination of its content has been established using high-sensitivity measurement methods. This means, unlike other companies, its content is guaranteed and not variable.
Standardization to 60% Octacosanol (6.6mg / Capsule)
Policosanol is a mixture of alcohols, with one standing out due to being the most present in the mixture and because scientific studies seem to attribute much of the nutritional relevance to it: Octacosanol.
Very few policosanol products on the market standardize their octacosanol content, and those that do often use indirect measurement methods, making them very imprecise.
HSN Policosanol 10mg provides 6.6mg of guaranteed Octacosanol, measured by direct analysis and not by estimation.
Formula with Vitamin B1 to Amplify Its Effects and Properties
Vitamin B1 is an essential nutrient that is part of the B vitamins, those that are water-soluble and needed daily to maintain vital functions.
Vitamin B1 is the perfect addition to Policosanol as it contributes to the normal function of the heart.
What Scientific Research Supports the Use of Policosanol for Personal Care?
Policosanol is not a new compound. Since the last century, the most reputable researchers in the Cuban medical community have dedicated significant efforts to discover its properties and effects on the body.
After decades of research, science has culminated, although not concluded, in the search for its properties in important and representative meta-analyses with systematic reviews, as shown below:
