Policosanol is a natural mixture of higher aliphatic primary alcohols which can either be derived from sugar cane or bees wax. Research shows that policosanol from sugar cane has a better effect on cholesterol levels than from bees wax. It works by slowing down the production of cholesterol in the liver while increasing the livers ability to reabsorb LDL unlike statin drugs which can damage the liver.
