LipidMAX is a simple solution to supporting cholesterol, with most benefit in reduction in LDL cholesterol related damage through a Pauling Protocol approach (High dose Lysine and Vitamin C) but also some general LDL reduction and HDL raising actions from the Citrus Bergamot, Grapeseed Extract, and CoQ10.
This is a formula we've tested with numerous patients using bloodwork at Strom, you can see the results of a semi-formal in house trial at the bottom of the page.

THE FORMULA
Each tub of LipidMAX includes 40 servings and is available in Mango flavour.
Each serve includes the following:
PAULING THERAPY PROTOCOL FOR ARTERIAL HEALTH
Linus Pauling was, a renowned chemist, who studied at Oregon State University and the California Institute of Technology, during his scientific career he won two individual Nobel Prizes for his work, among numerous other awards and accreditation.
The Pauling Therapy protocol for cholesterol involves the use of high doses of vitamin C and Lysine. He suggested that a combination of vitamin C and lysine could help prevent the formation of plaque in the arteries.
INCREASING LYSINE TO NEUTRALISE LIPOPROTEIN (a)
LDL cholesterol is what is often considered "bad" cholesterol, and in that context Lipoprotein (a) is a LDL that would be considered "very bad". It creates damage in your arterial walls due to a high number of attractive receptor sites which bind to the walls making it "sticky" to carry a high number of oxidised phospholipids. This is what is recognised to be the a primary reason Lipoprotein (a) is so damaging to arterial walls. In fact, it was this work that led to the 1987 Nobel prize in medicine discovered that lysine binding sites is a cause the formation of atherosclerotic plaques.
Thankfully this leads to the simple concept that Pauling introduced, increasing Lysine concentrations significantly in order to fill up these receptors, making them less likely to bind to arterial walls. Think of a parking lot that has all its car parks full, there isn't any room for more to come in. This therefore reducing the damage caused by Lipoprotein A signficantly.
VITAMIN C TO REDUCE PLAQUE BUILD UP
When cholesterol becomes oxidized, it can form plaque on the arterial walls, leading to atherosclerosis and an increased risk of heart disease. By acting as an antioxidant, vitamin C helps neutralise free radicals and reduce oxidative stress in the body. This can help prevent the oxidation of cholesterol and inhibit the formation of plaque. Additionally, vitamin C has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. Chronic inflammation plays a role in the development of atherosclerosis and plaque formation. By reducing inflammation, vitamin C may further contribute to the prevention of plaque buildup in the arteries. Vitamin C is also a necessary component in making the other potent antioxidant "CoQ10" which performs similar functions. This ingredient is discussed further below.
VITAMIN C & LYSINE FOR COLLAGEN
An additional value point of both Lysine and Vitamin C is that both are critical in the process of building collagen, which is required for the maintaining and repair of arterial walls. This will help recover after damage has been done, before it goes too far.
PAULING: NOT A CURE ALL, BUT STILL DAMN GOOD.
Together, lysine and vitamin C are thought to work synergistically to support the health of blood vessels, reduce oxidative stress, and inhibit the formation of arterial plaque. This is the primary principle of the orginal Pauling therapy protocol, however since the late 90's further improvements have been made.
Worth noting is that this approach is not an absolute cure-all, with some more recent evidence around other mechanisms regarding lipoprotein A, the bioavailability and half life of Vitamin C in blood, and that the Pauling approach is an oversimplification, and not as significant a cure as he claimed. This may be true in part, however in real world experimentation with the Pauling protocol alone we have seen good outcomes, the safety profile of both ingredients is excellent making risks negligible, and both ingredients are certainly valuable in other ways.
Additionally, understanding that cholesterol related health concerns do have multiple factors that will extend beyond Pualing's hypothesis, LipidMAX utilises multiple other efficacious ingredients to work on these various issues, including the Citrus Bergamot, Grape Seed Extract, and CoQ10 of which all have their own value independently shown in modern clinical research. These will be discussed below soon.
