Guggul Extract is produced from Commiphora mukul, a small, thorny plant distributed throughout India.

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. Guggul significantly lowers serum triglycerides and cholesterol as well as LDL and VLDL cholesterols (the "bad" cholesterols). At the same time, it raises levels of HDL cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol). As antioxidants, guggulsterones keep LDL cholesterol from oxidizing which protects against atherosclerosis. Guggul has been shown to reduce the stickiness of platelets; another effect that lowers the risk of coronary artery disease. One study found Guggul Extract similar to the drugclofibrate for lowering cholesterol levels. Clinical studies in India have consistently confirmed that Guggul Extract improves lipid levels in humans.

Uses:

• In chemical composition guggulu (extracted resin) consist of octanordammarana terpenes manusumbionic acid as obtained from chemical analysis.
• One of the main uses of guggul is treatment of high cholesterol. gum guggul both lowered cholesterol levels and also separately protected against the development of hardening of the arteries.  guggul can improve cholesterol levels.
• Guggul is also widely promoted as a weight loss agent.
• Helps prevent blood platelet aggregation and break up already-formed blood clots.  thus, this activity can help prevent heart disease and stroke. guggul lipids have been the subject of several scientific studies, the results of which have been extremely encouraging as to the product's nutritional value to the circulatory system.
• It is a heart tonic that strengthens the heart.
• Guggulsterone stimulates the thyroid gland, has anti-inflammatory properties, and protects against myocardial necrosis resulting from drug toxicity.
