What are Bergamot Polyphenolic Fractions?

Bergamot (Citrus bergamia) is a citrus plant that grows almost exclusively in the narrow coastal Calabria region in southern Italy. The local population quickly discovered bergamot juice could be used to help support healthy cholesterol levels and maintain cardiovascular wellness.

Bergamot’s health benefits derive from its unique profile of phenolic compounds such as, neoeriocitrin, neohesperidin, naringin, rutin, neodesmin, rhoifolin and poncirin. Neoeriocitrin and rutin have been found to exhibit a strong capacity to quench free radicals and maintain healthy LDL cholesterol levels. Also, bergamot is rich in brutieridine and melitidine. Using a patented extraction technology through collaborative works of various universities and research institutions, Bergamot BPF contains Bergamonte®, the highest concentration available of these effective phenolic compounds.

Cholesterol-Balancing Properties
In a placebo-controlled, clinical trial consisting of 77 patients divided into four treatment groups, 1,000 mg of bergamot extract helped maintain healthy levels of all blood lipid markers (HDL, LDL, TC).1 Also, this same clinical trial showed that bergamot extract reduced malondialdehyde production in neutrophils.1 Another clinical trial conducted on 80 patients over six months showed 150 mg of bergamot extract maintained normal levels of small density LDL and supported normal carotid IMT thickness.2 In a placebo-controlled study involving 238 patients, 1,000 mg of bergamot extract maintained healthy cholesterol levels and outperformed the group receiving the traditional therapy.3 Several other recently published placebo-controlled clinical trials have also documented that bergamot extract can help maintain antioxidant potential and healthy cholesterol levels.

Formulations That Work

Evidence-Based

All Ortho Molecular Products are evidence-based. The most reliable evidence comes in the form of well-controlled human clinical trials, in populations demographically similar to our doctors’ patients, published in peer-reviewed scientific journals. This is the standard we are aiming for when we consider which ingredients to include in our formulas. However, we also honor the historical data of thousands of years of traditional use, as well as the direct observations of health care practitioners in clinical practice.

Raw Material Superiority

Equally important as which ingredients to include is which forms of ingredients to choose. After all, there can be tremendous variation in two ingredients both called CoQ10. At Ortho Molecular Products, we hold ourselves to a standard of raw material quality seldom seen in the supplement industry, and it starts with asking the right questions. For example, when evaluating a raw material, most companies’ first question is: How much does it cost? We ask: Does the ingredient match the specifications used in clinical studies? Is it bioavailable? Has it been tested for safety? What is its country of origin? Was it manufactured in a controlled facility? Simply stated, we do not use inferior raw materials. Ever.

Therapeutic Potency

Of course, even if you have chosen evidence-based ingredients and provided them in a superior form, the formula will not work if the dosages are too small. That’s why Ortho Molecular Products always include the right therapeutic dosing of each ingredient, based on established research. This approach is what separates good supplements from great supplements — formulas that truly help your patients get better faster. It is what drives efficacy and the reason we always formulate to the power of e.
