Natural fast-acting liver protection for
metabolic syndrome prevention
and cardiovascular health
Clinically supported product
This innovative food supplement is based on an extract
from a specific type of prune traditionally used
in Asian diets for its hepatoprotective properties.
Ideally suited for individuals at risk of metabolic
syndrome or cardiovascular disease showing:
• High levels of liver enzymes (AST, ALT and GGT)
• Raised fasting plasma glucose
• Increased LDL/HDL cholesterol ratio
A randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial,
including 45 people, showed significant results vs placebo
with phenolic compounds contained in Livaker :
• Lower serum enzymes levels (ALT, AST, GGT):
-16 IU/L; -4 IU/L; -6 IU/L respectively
• Lower glycemia: -7.6 mg/dL
• Lower LDL/HDL ratio: -0.5
Why Livaker
