• Cholesterol is required to build and maintain cell membranes
• It is the major precursor for the synthesis of vitamin D and of the various steroid hormones
• Cholesterol is primarily synthesized from
acetyl CoA through the HMG-CoA reductase pathway in many cells and tissues.

Gugulipid(Gum Guggul, Guggulu )
Species : Commiphora mukul Local Name : Bdellium Gum, Guggulipid, Gum Gugal, Salaitree Gugulipid, gum guggulu. Parts Used : Gum resin extract. Origin:

Traditional use:guggul lipid has been used to treat arthritis, rheumatism, haemorrhids, urinary disorder, obesity, skin diseases and high cholesterol. It has been claimed to be widely used for over 2,000 years.
![Page 46: What is Hyperlipidemia ? Hyperlipidemia is an excess of fatty substances called lipids, largely cholesterol and triglycerides, in the blood.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110208/56649d9e5503460f94a88861/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
active constituents: Ketone fraction that is extracted from the resin
contains the most potent cholesterol lowering components. This is composed of C21 or C27 steroids, with the
major components being Z- and E-guggulsterone.
Guggul contains resin, volatile oils, and gum. The extract isolates ketonic steroid compounds
known as guggulsterones. These compounds have been
shown to provide the lipid-lowering actions noted for guggul.

After taking the product for 4 to 12 weeks, total cholesterol levels can drop, triglyceride levels can drop and an increase in HDL (the good cholesterol) of approximately 16% can occur.
Guggul can lower blood cholesterol by 14-27% and can lower triglycerides by 22-30%
