What is HEP
How HEP-40™ works
HEP-40 works in the intestine. It is an all natural substance that acts like a magnet, attaching and bonding to fats and lipids, and forcing their elimination before they can be absorbed into the blood stream.
 
Like phytosterols, HEP-40 reduces cholesterol absorption naturally. HEP-40 binds to fats and lipids in the digestive tract, forming an insoluble complex. This binding process prevents fats and lipids from being absorbed. As a result, more cholesterol passes through the digestive system and is eliminated naturally, without entering the bloodstream.
 
HEP-40 is an insoluble dietary fiber, and it is not absorbed into the blood stream. This is the principal reason that it does not produce side effects. And because HEP-40 is hydrophilic, it becomes hydrated in the intestine and does not irritate the digestive tract.
 
The optimal dosage is three 800mg capsules of HEP-40 20 minutes before the evening meal.
