Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, and elevated levels of bad cholesterol (Low Density Lipoprotein, LDL) play a major role in their development. Although several chemical drugs are available to control cholesterol levels, long-term usage of such drugs is often associated with side effects. Therefore, there is a growing demand for safe, natural, and plant-based alternatives for cholesterol management. The present project focuses on the development of Cholestanol, a completely natural, plant-based powder formulation designed to reduce bad cholesterol levels through a holistic and chemical-free approach. Cholestanol is prepared using selected medicinal plant products known for their cholesterol-lowering, antioxidant, and cardioprotective properties. No synthetic chemicals, preservatives, or pharmaceutical drugs are used in the formulation, making it a safer option for long-term use. The main objective of this study is to formulate a natural powder that can help in the removal or reduction of LDL cholesterol while supporting overall heart health. The plant-based ingredients are processed using simple and sustainable methods to retain their bio-active compounds. The powder form ensures ease of consumption, better stability, and affordability. This project high-lights the potential of natural products in managing lifestyle-related disorders such as hypercholesterolemia. Cholestanol represents an innovative step towards preventive healthcare by integrating traditional plant-based knowledge with modern scientific approaches. The formulation has significant scope for further experimental validation, clinical studies, and commercialization, contributing to bio-entrepreneurship and sustainable healthcare solutions.
