Formula CT™ is a combination of seven compounds formulated to promote the metabolism of lipids. Clinical research has determined that high levels of lipids in the blood are considered one of the main causes of heart disease.

Studies in the United States have shown that red yeast rice extract can pro-mote the reduction of cholesterol levels. The effects of red yeast rice extract were also tested in China in a study that included a group of almost 5,000 people. The study looked at how many people had a major cardiovascular event, like a heart attack, or died from CAD. Most of them had coronary artery disease (CAD). The study showed that the people who took red yeast rice were 30-33% less likely to die from CAD or any other cause. They were also about a third less likely to need revascularization, such as angioplasty.

Beta -1,3 -glucan is used primarily to support the improvement of immune system function and promote the reduction of cholesterol. Beta-glucan is the key factor for promoting the cholesterol-lowering effect of oat bran. As with other soluble-fiber components, the binding of cholesterol (and bile acids) by beta-glucan and the resulting elimination of these molecules in the feces is very helpful for supporting the reduction of cholesterol.

Oat Bran can also significantly help the body by promoting the reduction of total cholesterol as well as low-density lipoprotein, also known as "bad" cholesterol. A lower percentage of "bad" cholesterol will do wonders for the heart and arteries, as well as increase metabolism and energy. Oat bran can also support the decrease of cholesterol that is absorbed from other foods that are consumed.

Standardized extract of artichoke has also been used to promote the reduction of cholesterol and triglycerides. In one preliminary trial and one controlled trial, use of standardized artichoke extract was found to decrease cholesterol and triglycerides significantly when taken in amounts above 900 mg per day.

Flaxseeds have been used as food and medicine in both traditional Indian and Chinese medicines for thousands of years. Flaxseed has become popular as an important functional food ingredient because it is rich in dietary fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and lignans which are constituents known to promote cardiovascular health.

In an article published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry, researchers from Hong Kong University found that capsaicin from cayenne promotes the reduction of blood cholesterol levels.

Spirulina algae has shown to promote the improvement of the lipid profile by promoting the increase of HDL levels while decreasing LDL, total cholesterol, and triglycerides.
