What is Cholesterol?
Cholesterol is a fatty substance (lipid) found in animal tissue and fat. It is mostly made by the liver and circulates in the blood, and is produced by the body from dietary cholesterol and saturated fats in food.
Cholesterol is not harmful if kept within acceptable limits, so it is important to keep blood flowing freely through arteries and veins. The body uses cholesterol to perform a variety of vital functions, including building and maintaining cell membranes, hormone synthesis, aiding in fat digestion, and manufacturing Vitamin D.
In addition to making cholesterol, we also get a small percentage of the body's cholesterol from the foods we eat. Only animal-based foods such as meat, eggs, and dairy products contain cholesterol. The more cholesterol we consume in foods, the more cholesterol is produced by the liver. Plant foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains do not contain cholesterol.
The body manufactures two types of cholesterol - LDL (the 'bad' form of cholesterol) and HDL (the 'good' form of cholesterol). The body has a built-in mechanism to regulate these types of cholesterol, leading to systemic harmony.
The natural way
Support your body in its regulation of natural healthy levels of cholesterol. This can be done by following a healthy lifestyle and eating a balanced diet (foods rich in carbohydrates and fiber, such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains), increasing physical activity, and maintaining a healthy body weight.
Natural remedies have been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to support the health of the heart and liver. In more recent times, research has confirmed this traditional wisdom.
There are now many published clinical studies demonstrating the ability of a range of herbs to support the cardiovascular system and to promote healthy cholesterol within the normal range.
(Fuhrman B, Volkova N, Kaplan M, et al. “Anti-atherosclerotic effects of licorice extract supplementation on hyper-cholesterolemic patients: increased resistance of LDL to atherogenic modifications, reduced plasma lipid levels, and decreased systolic blood pressure”. Nutrition. 2002;18(3):268-273.)

- Red Yeast Rice (Monascus purpurea) is an ancient Chinese remedy that has been used for centuries, both medicinally and in the preservation and coloring of food. Containing natural statins, Monascus purpurea has been shown to help lower cholesterol when added to the diet. (Heber D, Yip I, Ashley JM, et al. “Cholesterol-lowering effects of a proprietary Chinese red-yeast-rice dietary supplement”. Am J Clin Nutr. 1999;69:231–236). Furthermore, in recent studies, this herb was shown to assist the body in regulating fats in the bloodstream (Lin CC, Li TC, Lai MM et al. “Efficacy and safety of Monascus purpureus Went rice in subjects with hyperlipidemia”. Eur J Endocrinol. 2005;153:679-86). (Huang CF, Li TC, Lin CC, et al. “Efficacy of Monascus purpureus Went rice on lowering lipid ratios in hypercholesterolemic patients”. Eur J Cardiovasc Prev Rehabil. 2007;14:438-440).
- Gugulipid is an extract of the herb Commiphora mukul, the gum resin of the mukul myrrh tree. It is a highly prized and well-known Ayurvedic herb, used medicinally for hundreds of years. This small, bushy tree grows in arid regions of India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, and produces a yellowish gum resin in ducts located throughout its bark. The active compounds in gugulipid are E- and Z-guggulsterone are believed to have antioxidant effects. (Singh RB, Niaz MA, Ghosh S. “Hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects of Commiphora mukul as an adjunct to dietary therapy in patients with hyper-cholesterolemia”. Cardiovasc Drugs Ther. 1994;8:659–664). Furthermore, Commiphora mukul has been shown to have positive effects with special regards to HDL-cholesterol. (Verma SK, Bordia A. “Effect of Commiphora mukul (gum guggulu) in patients of hyperlipidemia with special reference to HDL-cholesterol”. Indian J Med Res. 1988;87:356–360.) (Szapary PO, Wolfe ML, Bloedon LT, et al. “Guggulipid for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia: a randomized controlled trial”. JAMA. 2003;290:765-72).
- Aspalathus linearis (Rooibos) is a prized herb found only on the slopes of the Cedarberg Mountains in the Western Cape of South Africa, and has been used as a natural medicine for thousands of years by the indigenous people of that area. It is used as a supportive tonic to help digestive health, encourage healthy liver functioning, and promote healthy blood sugar levels. Rooibos also has powerful anti-oxidant properties, mainly due to its supeoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic properties. SOD is an enzyme in the body that is designed to neutralize unstable oxygen molecules (free radicals) as soon as they occur, and systemic SOD can therefore help to promote health. Due to its high mineral content, (Vitamin C, Alphahydroxy Acid, potassium, copper, magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, manganese and fluoride) Rooibos can promote healthy metabolism, bones, skin and teeth. These minerals have been shown to have great benefit with regards to cholesterol. (Freeland-Graves, J. H., et al, 1982: “Effects of zinc supplementation on plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and zinc”. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. 35:988). These minerals can also be beneficial in encouraging healthy blood sugar levels, supporting routine blood pressure, and acting as a promotional tonic for the immune system. It is an extremely nutritious herb, containing Vitamin C, Alphahydroxy Acid, potassium, copper, magnesium, calcium, iron, zinc, manganese and fluoride.
Cholesto-Rite contains no gluten, artificial colors, artificial flavors, preservatives or animal products.

Our Full Spectrum Approach™
Guaranteeing Quality, Effectiveness & Safety
With a wide range of natural remedies and treatments on the market today, we understand that it can sometimes be difficult to make sense of it all. We also know that since there is no standardization in the herbal industry, there is no guarantee as to the consistency, safety or potency of the herbal remedies you buy.
That is until now!
At Native Remedies, all of our remedies are developed using the Full Spectrum Approach (FSA) to ensure you get the quality, potency and protection you deserve. Our Full Spectrum Approach consists of a set of standards and processes that combine wild crafted herbs, cGMP manufacturing and a full spectrum extraction method.
Our 3 Point Promise
1. Formulation
The first step in formulating a new remedy is always determining a customer’s needs and to match them with natural ingredients that have proven effectiveness.
In doing so, we draw on a vast body of documented knowledge about traditional medicine, as well as more recent clinical research into herbal remedies and proven homeopathic ingredients. Together with a team of natural health experts, the final formulations are compiled and decided upon.
2. Raw Material Quality & Source
All of the raw ingredients we use in our remedies are purchased from reputable suppliers and our ingredients are organically grown whenever possible.
We also ensure that wild-crafted herbs are grown far away from sources of pollution and electricity pylons, and that their presence does not compromise the integrity and balance of their environment.
All of our raw ingredients are purchased with an accompanying Certificate of Analysis. On receipt, they go into quarantine until further in-house tests are completed and released by our responsible pharmacists, ensuring that the herbs are fresh and not contaminated by any impure substances (e.g. heavy metals or bacterial infections).
3. Manufacturing
We manufacture all our remedies in an FDA registered facility under sterile conditions to ensure that no contamination occurs.
All our remedies are manufactured in-house under the supervision of our expert team and none are brought in from elsewhere. This enables us to have full control over quality and safety.
All of our products are then manufactured according to the principles of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) ensuring the consistency, safety and effectiveness of our remedies.
Full Spectrum Method vs. 'Standardized' Extracts
You may have heard the term 'standardized' extract used in relation to herbal remedies, but do you know what this means?
Many pharmaceutical companies have begun manufacturing herbal remedies using a process of extraction whereby harsh chemicals are employed to extract the active ingredients of medicinal herbs.
You will recognize these extracts by the usage of the words 'standardized' extract on the labels. This method of manufacturing is often cited as being more scientific and able to produce a superior product with controlled and guaranteed amounts of active ingredients in each product.
Contrary to these claims, this process is not approved by the manufacturers of holistic medicines. One of the reasons is that the process of extracting so-called 'active ingredients' and isolating them from the rest of the herb is one that has resulted in an increase in side effects, as the herb in this way loses its natural ability to protect against side effects.
In addition, many manufacturers use all parts of the plants to create standardized extracts, whereas herbalists know that only certain parts of some herbs should be used.
In the case of Ginkgo Biloba, for example, it is well known that the seeds of this plant are poisonous and can cause seizures and that only the leaves should be used. Standardized extracts of Ginkgo Biloba have been associated with the risk of seizure in some trials.
The most recent example of the dangers of using this manufacturing process includes the development of liver toxicity from using Kava Kava extract, an herb which has been safely used for hundreds of years!
It must also be added that this process of extraction requires the use of harsh chemicals and solvents, traces of which are difficult to remove completely from the final product.
To us, it makes little sense for companies to go the natural route, while being unable to guarantee that their product is free of contamination with chemicals known to be harmful to health!
Unlike many so-called natural remedies manufactured according to the methods described above, at Native Remedies, we avoid standardized extracts completely and use the Full Spectrum method of extraction, which is recommended by all the authoritative Materia Medica dealing with herbal medicine.
This helps us to maintain the integrity, balance and therapeutic effect of herbs with the least risk of side effects or harm to your health!
When you buy herbal and homeopathic medicines from Sage and Wisdom, you can be confident that you’re receiving a product manufactured to the highest standards of health, production and effectiveness!
