LicoRich - reduces the level of oxidated cholesterol in the blood



summarized details for MD professionals.
 Dr. Yacov Fogelman, MD- Scientific  product advisor
 
Licorice Root Glycyrrhiza glabra has a long history of use by cultures throughout the world, including the Greeks, Egyptians, Chinese and Hindus. It grows wild in southern and central Europe and is extensively cultivated in Russia, Spain, Persia and India. Licorice is widely used as a flavoring, not only for candy but also in cough drops, syrups, tonics and laxatives.
 
The root of Glycyrrhiza glabra has been used forcenturies as antidotes, demulcents, expectorants, and remediesfor allergic inflammation, as well as flavoring and sweeteningagents in Asia and Europe (1). Licorice containsglycyrrhizin, oleane triterpenoids, glucose, and flavonoids.
 
Licorich  TM is made from the Licorice root, obtained though a unique extraction process.
 
 Licorice extract has been known to have an anti-inflammatoryeffect, and various components of licorice extract, includingglabridin, are reported to be involved in this effect by exertingan inhibitory effect on cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase activities(2;8).
A study(3) demonstrated that dietary supplementation ofeach E zero mouse with licorice (200 micrograms/d) or pure glabridin (20micrograms/d) for 6 wk resulted in a substantial reduction in thesusceptibility of their LDL to oxidation along with a reduction in theatherosclerotic lesion area.
 
    In a human study from Lipid Research Laboratory(6) , Technion Faculty of Medicine Rambam Medical Center, Haifa, Israel, demonstrated that  Licorice consumption(Licorich  TM) 1) reduced patients' plasma susceptibility to oxidation (by 19%); 2) increased resistance of plasma LDL against three major atherogenic modifications: LDL oxidation (by 55%), aggregation (by 28%), and retention, estimated as chondroitin sulfate binding ability (by 25%); 3) reduced plasma cholesterol levels (by 5%), which was due to a 9% reduction in plasma LDL cholesterol levels; and 4) reduced (by 14%) plasma triacylglycerol levels. After the 1 mo of placebo consumption, these parameters reversed toward baseline levels. Licorice extract supplementation alsoreduced systolic blood pressure by 10%.
 
In 2 recent random order and double blind studies (11,12) 22 subjects consumed Licorich  TM or placebo for 6 month. The subjects' oxidative stress level as well as plasma LDL oxidation decresed by 20%   .
 

In conclusion: Licorich  TM significantly reduces the level of oxidated cholesterol in the blood, thus preventing oxidated cholesterol from  sticking to the walls of the arteries. This significantly delays the formation of plaques and narrowing of arteries.It helps also decrease high blood pressure.
