• PCOH-Plus (Policosanol) is a mixture of open-chain alcohols isolated and purified from cane sugar that will induce cholesterol-lowering effects in experimental models and human subjects.

• Policosanol extracted from sugar cane has also been shown to be helpful with non-insulin dependant diabetes and intermittent claudication.

• PCOH-Plus should be used in combination with GlucoBalance and Flax Seed Oil to help reduce Type II Hyperliproproteinemia (tryglycerides higher than cholesterol on blood test).

• Dietary changes to eliminate or significantly reduce hydrogenated fats, refined carbohydrates, dairy products, gluten containing grains and alcohol should also be initiated along with an increase in exercise.

Some so-called "policosanols", are actually solated from beeswax and rice bran. Beware of cheap discounts, you get what you pay for.

Biotics Research PCOH-Plus utilizes Policosanol from sugar cane, which is the source supported by clinical research*, and emulsified CoQ10, which has been shown to be better absorbed that the most commonly used form. These extracts have even been shown in clinical trials to provide the health benefits of policosanol derived from sugar cane*.

Why the confusion? The term "policosanols" generally means a group of, or many cosanols. (Policosanol is the generic term used for a mixture of long chain fatty alcohols.) However, the term was originally given to the isolate from sugar cane, which has as its main component, Octacosanol.

On the other hand, so-called policosanols from beeswax consists mostly of other alcohols (not the Octacosanol which gives the best therapeutic effect) as is the case with rice bran extracts.

Policosanols from sugar cane has been well studied and proven safe and effective. The results have been published in high quality, peer review journals such as the American Heart Journal, International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology Research, and Diabetes Care.
