FAQ
Is Diminicol safe?
Plant sterols and their effect in reducing serum cholesterol levels have been researched for over fifty years. The absorption of plant sterols into the human body is considerably minor. No side-effects have been detected on healthy persons.
In the case of an extremely rare disease, sitosterolemia, the absorption of plant sterols is exceptionally strong. When this happens, the effect of plant sterols in the human body is harmful, similar to that of cholesterol.
Some research results have shown that at the same time that plant sterols prevent cholesterol absorption, they might prevent some fat-soluble vitamins from absorbing into the body. This seems to be preventable by consuming fruits and vegetables at least five portions a day.
How much do you have to consume Diminicol in order to lower cholesterol?
An adequate amount of plant sterols is about 1.5 grams per day. This amount is delivered in 5 grams of Diminicol. It can be divided into several portions.
What is the effective mechanism of Diminicol?
When plant sterols occur in the digestive tract at the same time with cholesterol, they prevent cholesterol from absorbing through the small intestine walls into blood circulation. Plant sterols are at their most effective when consumed together with a meal, because this way they occur in the digestive tract at the same time with the cholesterol that is induced from the meal.

Why are antioxidants essential to human health?
Oxidation of human cells appears to play a critical role in processes of aging and many degenerative diseases. Oxidation is caused by free radicals that are generated by body functions and lifestyle. Antioxidants can decrease oxidation by neutralising free radicals. This can result in a slower aging process.
How does Oxiant prevent oxidation?
Oxiant is a radical scavenger and it is effective in the aqueous parts of human body. It can possibly recycle vitamin E. In practice this means that it enhances the effect of vitamin E.
