LIPIBOR 

Capsules 

Reduces Cholesterol 

Description 

Lipibor is a proprietary blend of natural ingredients, scientifically 

developed to lower blood cholesterol. It contains high quality 

standardized extracts of Policosanol, Beta-glucan and Niacin. Each 

ingredient plays an integral role in cholesterol management and 

together having complimentary and synergistic effects. 

Actions and Pharmacology

Policosanol works by blocking the body’s synthesis of cholesterol. It 

reduces total cholesterol, LDL (bad cholesterol), and increases HDL 

(good cholesterol). It also appears  to inhibit the oxidation of LDL. 

Oxidized LDL creates a chronic inflammatory response that promotes 

destruction of blood vessels. Policosanol has a direct effect on the liver 

cells and cholesterol metabolism. It helps binding LDL to receptors, 

transporting LDL to the liver and facilitating its break down. It inhibits 

excessive platelet aggregation. However, its effects on triglyceride are 

modest.  

Niacin has been proven to improve  the lipoprotein profile. It is 

effective at reducing total cholesterol, LDL, and triglyceride levels, 

while at the same time raising HDL levels. It lowers cholesterol and 

triglyceride by blocking their excess  production  by  liver.  It  has 

synergistic effect with statins in lowering cholesterol. Niacin inhibits 

lipoprotein lipids, decreases fatty acid transfer to the liver, decreases 

hepatic triglyceride synthesis and VLDL synthesis, and facilitates the 

excretion. Niacin stimulates HDL synthesis.  

Clinical trial shows that Niacin decreases VLDL and triglyceride by 35% 

to 40% within days, increases HDL by 10% to 14%, and decreases 

LDL by 20% to 30% within weeks.  

Beta glucan has been found to lower total cholesterol levels as well as 

to increase levels of HDL-cholesterol. The mechanism of the HDLelevation activity is unknown. Also, it is not well understood how beta 

glucan lowers total cholesterol  levels. It is thought that the 

cholesterol-lowering effect of beta glucan may be accounted for, in 

large part by, its promotion of the excretion of bile acids. 

Beta glucan appears to be a non-specific immune enhancer via its 

ability, among other possible mechanisms, to activate macrophages. It 

may have some anti-carcinogenic, anti-atherosclerotic and anti-inflammatory effects. It may enhance wounds healing and promote 

skin health in some circumstances. 

Combination Lipibor 

The three ingredients of Lipibor have synergistic and complementary 

effect in relation to lowering total cholesterol, LDL, VLDL, and 

triglycerides while at the same time  increasing  HDL.  In  addition, 

Lipibor is a platelet anti-aggregant and immunomodulator. 

 

Indications and Usage 

Lipibor is indicated as a supportive measure to dietary and lifestyle 

recommendations to reduce elevated cholesterol levels.  Lipibor lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol and increases HDL (good) 

cholesterol and helps prevent atherosclerosis. 

It may reduce platelet aggregation in both healthy and 

hypercholesterolemic individuals, which may be of beneficial to 

individuals with intermittent claudication.
