We investigated the qualities of faba bean blanching water, especially its potential effects on cholesterol levels. This study showed that the processing water, packed with protein and minerals, especially potassium, might have cholesterol-lowering abilities due to its inhibitory effects on HMG-CoA reductase—a key enzyme in cholesterol production.

Excellent product and top quality. The potassium gluconate 99 mg supplement was prescribed to me due to an imbalance in salts and minerals, alongside a notable potassium deficiency. I struggled with symptoms of high cholesterol, and this supplement significantly helped lower my levels to within the average range. It has been beneficial on various levels, improving the balance of my salts. The package is sizeable, containing 250 tablets, which lasts a long time, thus saving me from frequent repurchases.
