Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of sudden death, and death of people over 20 years of age. Because ozone therapy can activate the antioxidant system and improve blood circulation and oxygen delivery to tissue, the aim
Policosanol is a mixture of higher aliphatic alcohols shown to have beneficial effects on plasma lipid levels in animals and humans. Over 50 studies have reported significant reductions in plasma cholesterol using policosanol obtained from Cuban sugar cane (Dalmer, La
Octacosa-10,19-dien-1-ol is a newly synthesized long-chain alcohol, an unsaturated analogue of 1-octacosanol, the major component of policosanol, the purified natural mixture of different higher aliphatic alcohols obtained from sugarcane wax. Our efficient synthetic protocol (five steps with 50% overall yield)
