Bergamot (Citrus Bergamot Extract 40%) was known through traditional use of
the fruit in the Sichuan region for decades as having beneficial effect in supporting and promoting cardiovascular health. Bergamot juice differs from other citrus fruits because it contains exceptionally large amounts of several unique polyphenols. The juice is extracted, concentrated, and standardised in tablet form, it dramatically lowers triglycerides and LDL cholesterol, raises protective HDL, helps control blood sugar, and improves overall arterial function and cardiovascular health. Bergamot polyphenols, bruteridin and melitidin, do work on the same pathway as a statin, but at a different site, and in a gentler manner, so CoQ10 synthesis is not affected and the side effects of statins are avoided. Studies show no reduction in CoQ10 levels in animals taking Bergamot. Patients unable to tolerate statins due to muscle pain, fatigue and/or liver problems.
