Nowadays, people's diet has become richer, but blood vessel has become unhealthy. Coupled with bad living habits, such as staying up late, sitting for a long time, not having sex for three meals, not loving to exercise, etc., more and more people have abnormalities in blood lipids . According to the latest statistics from the center for cardiovascular diseases in , the number of people with dyslipidemia in my country has exceeded 400 million, with a prevalence rate of more than 40%.

In order to better control blood lipids, people will choose to take health products that lower blood lipids, such as fish oil. But just last month, the Hong Kong Consumer Council tested 25 fish oil supplement samples and found that all samples contained contaminants, including 14 of which were found to be the carcinogen "epoxypropanol" and 6 were found to be the carcinogen "polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). The safety of fish oil is really worrying.

In fact, in addition to fish oil, phytosterols, red quince +natto are also the choices for people to control their blood lipids today. Today we will compare these mainstream health products horizontally to see which one is safer and more reliable.

fish oil

deep-sea cold water fish fat contains a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, which can esterify cholesterol , thereby reducing cholesterol and triglyceride . However, it should be noted that only high-purity fish oil has the health care effect of lowering blood lipids, while fish oil with insufficient purity has a weak lipid reduction effect.

Plant sterol

Plant sterol is mainly found in rapeseed oil, wheat germ oil, corn oil, Pistachio , and legumes and cereals. Studies have found that phytosterols containing functional foods or supplements can effectively control plasma LDL cholesterol levels and have a rapid cholesterol-lowering effect. The disadvantage is that their effect will be maintained only when ingestion of phytosterol is routine.

Natto + Red Qu

Natto is a fermented soybean, and Red Qu ferment is made from rice fermentation. Studies in my country have found that the natto kinase contained in natto has certain anti-platelet aggregation, in vitro dissolving thrombosis, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood lipids, etc., so that blood flow remains unobstructed at all times;

and red quarme monakolin K in helps maintain normal blood cholesterol concentration, and the statin-like substance it contains is a "plant statin" and also has the effect of assisting blood lipid-lowering. Not only that, the phytosterols, red chorionic pigments, etc. it contains can also cooperate to intervene in the four types of blood lipids.

It is reported that the "2021 Polish Lipid Disease Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines" clearly recommended the use of red chorizo ​​rice extract, and EFSA ( EU Food Safety Agency ) also recommended nattokinase as a food supplement.

There are also many nutritional supplements on the market that combine natto and red citrus, because compared with the current mainstream lipid-lowering health products (fish oil, phytosterol, lecithin , etc.), these two ingredients have a more comprehensive effect in combining them, and have a certain positive effect on assisting lowering blood lipids and protecting blood vessels.

Currently on the market in my country, there are many corresponding nutritional supplement doses to choose from, and Shubaining is one of them. It combines two plant components, natto and red qu, into one, which can lower blood lipids while also maintaining blood vessels. It has better effect than a single component, and dual-effect maintenance is also more suitable for people who have poor daily life habits and who know that they have three highs but have not reached the level of drug intervention.

In general, it is good to use fish oil, phytosterols, etc. to control blood lipids while ensuring safety and sustainability. However, compared with their uncertainty, red quince + natto has a positive intervention effect on the four items of blood lipids, both maintaining blood vessels and lowering blood lipids, and clinical verification from authoritative institutions can prove that it is safer and more scientific.
