Guggul Extract

This purified extract of crude guggul gum from the small mukul tree was first discovered in India, and has been used ever since. With its two active ingredients, Z-Guggulsterone and E-Guggulsterone active at an average of 2.5%, the refined resin supports healthy cardiovascular circulation. Some studies have also reported that these active guggulsterones may be able to assist the body in normalizing cholesterol levels while encouraging healthy immune system response.

Z-Guggulsterone and E-Guggulsterone are isomeric compounds which have been extensively studied for their ability to increase thyroid hormone output and metabolic rate in animals and humans. Guggulsterones also have recently been shown to reduce cholesterol levels by blocking a receptor in the liver called Farnesoid X, thus allowing more cholesterol to be excreted from the body in the form of bile salts.
