If you need support for maintaining healthy cholesterol levels Red Sterol Complex is for you. A unique combination of plant sterols, red yeast rice, a traditional Chinese extract from rice fermented with monascus purpureus, and policosanol extract.
Plant sterols block the absorption of cholesterol from your diet to help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels, whilst red yeast rice has been used for centuries for its potent health-giving properties. Policosanol is found naturally in sugar cane waxes. The formula also includes cinnamon bark extract and vitamin E for complete support. Vitamin E helps protect against the oxidation of cholesterol.
Oxidation is a chemical process in the body where molecules in our cells, or in this case, fats such as cholesterol become damaged by unstable molecules called free radicals. It is believed that the oxidised cholesterol is harmful to the health of the arteries, causing inflammation and hardening. Excessive oxidation may be caused by factors such as stress, smoking and alcohol.
Cleverly formulated with a two-pronged natural approach – this unique product targets cholesterol in the diet and cholesterol made by the liver itself. Giving you dual benefits when you need them most.
Ideal for anyone who is not currently taking conventional statin medication but may be concerned about raised cholesterol levels and wishes to lower them naturally, without side effects. Higher Nature formulated this product so that it can be used at a higher initial dose and then results maintained at a lower maintenance dose.

Body HealthVIEW PRODUCTComplete Omegas 3:6:7:9
You may already be aware of omega-3 fatty acids, but did you realise that other omega fats are needed for health?
Higher Nature’s Complete Omegas blends the essential omega 3 and 6 fats which must be sourced from the diet or supplementation, along with omegas 7 and 9.
The key omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, contribute to many aspects of cardiovascular health. DHA is also needed for healthy vision and brain function. This balanced blend provides omega-3 fats in triglyceride form from cold-pressed, unrefined & filtered oils from wild sardines, anchovies and mackerel.
Omega 6 provides the essential fatty acid, GLA which plays an important role in hormone balance by the production of prostaglandins – chemical messengers with hormone-like activity. Complete Omegas also provides omega 7 from Sea Buckthorn oil which has been found to have an affinity for the skin and mucous membranes and may be particularly useful for post-menopausal women.
Omega 9 (oleic acid) commonly known as a monounsaturated fat, is derived from Virgin Olive Oil, a principal ingredient of the Mediterranean Diet, which is associated with a range of heart-healthy benefits. Complete Omegas 3:6:7:9 provides a perfect combination of omega fatty acids in easy-to-swallow gelatine capsules that can be taken by adults and children over 13 years.
