From the historical expertise of ROELMI HPC at the service of the Life Science sector, with its entrepreneurial roots in the long Mediterranean tradition, and from the spirit of sustainable innovation and deep technological knowledge, comes SelectSIEVE® OptiChol. It is a natural active ingredient intended for nutraceutical applications for the promotion of a healthy cardiovascular system, through the balance of cholesterol levels by decreasing LDL and boosting HDL.
SelectSIEVE® OptiChol is based on balanced and highly standardized polyphenols from olive (Olea europaea), targeting hypocholesterolemia conditions.
Derived from a circular economy involving only olive by-products of the variety Coratina, an Apulian native cultivar, the ingredient is particularly rich in hydroxytyrosol, widely described in literature and recognized by EFSA for reducing oxidative stress, being active in lipid metabolism and protecting body cells or LDL from oxidative damages.
This is the result of the company’s proactive commitment to eco-responsible phytocomplexes, developed through modern extraction processes, which allow not only to preserve the properties of natural active ingredients contained in selected plants, but also to promote the environmental sustainability, through the setting up of a circular economy focused on the enhancement of plant matrices.
The effectiveness of SelectSIEVE® OptiChol is clinically proven. In fact, the ingredient is able to modulate of the whole lipidemic profile and related dyslipidemia parameters by downregulating total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol, together with an increase of HDL cholesterol. It also demonstrated activity in reducing other risk factors of cardiometabolic disease by: improving systolic blood pressure and pulses, reducing fasting plasma glycaemia and decreasing serum uric acid.
SelectSIEVE® OptiChol by ROELMI HPC is the ideal ingredient for the development of food supplements dedicated to the control of unbalanced levels of cholesterol, leading to satisfactory benefits in reducing of oxidative stress and systemic inflammatory levels.
