血脂康是以特种大米、特制红曲霉菌种为原料,运用现代生物技术发酵而成。血脂康作为现代中药的代表,有效成分明确、作用机理比较清楚,通过抑制肝脏HMG-COA还原酶,降低胆固醇合成,减少细胞内胆固醇的贮存;促进LDL受体合成,增加LDL受体的活性和数量,加强LDL胆固醇的摄取与代谢,降低血中胆固醇浓度;抑制肝脏内脂肪酸及甘油三酯的合成,促进脂质的排泄, Xuezhikang is made from special rice and special strains of Monascus sp. Xuezhikang, as a representative of modern Chinese medicine, has a clear active ingredient and a clearer mechanism of action. It inhibits liver HMG-COA reductase, lowers cholesterol synthesis, and reduces the storage of intracellular cholesterol; promotes LDL receptor synthesis and increases the activity of LDL receptors. The quantity enhances the uptake and metabolism of LDL cholesterol, lowers the concentration of cholesterol in the blood, inhibits the synthesis of fatty acids and triglycerides in the liver, and promotes the excretion of lipids.
