FEATURES AND BENEFITS
- The only product approved by Academia Del Bergamotto.
- Supports cardio & cholesterol health.
BergaMet is a powerful, natural cholesterol lowering supplement containing citrus bergamot.
Bergamot differs from other citrus fruits not only because of the composition of its antioxidant polyphenols, but because of their particularly high content. Two Bergamot polyphenols, bruteridin and melitidin, are very potent antioxidants that protect against free radical damage throughout the body, including the all-important vascular endothelium.
The condition and function of the endothelium—the thin layer of cells lining the blood vessels—is perhaps the most important determinant of cardiovascular health, as it is intimately involved in vasoconstriction/dilation and artery health.
Bergamot is endemic to the Calabrian region in Southern Italy. In fact this region accounts for 80% of the worldwide production. Bergamot was known through traditional use of the fruit in Calabrian regions for decades as having beneficial effect in supporting and promoting the health of the cardiovascular system and supporting normal, healthy cholesterol in healthy people. Bergamot differs from other citrus fruits not only because of the composition of it’s antioxidant flavonoids, but because of their particularly high content. Flavonoids polyphenols such as Naringin and Neohesperin show the ability to help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
A double blind placebo clinical trial conducted at the Dept of Cardiology of the University of Rome “ Tor Vergata ” and at the Vascular Medicine and Artherosclerosis Unit Cardiology, Villa Salus Medical Center, Marinella on 237 patients produced the following conclusion*:
- Bergamot could be an effective nutriceutical approach to promote cardiovascular health.
- Bergamot contributes to maintaining healthy normal cholesterol in healthy people.
- Bergamot supports healthy blood glucose controls.
