The Best Citrus Bergamot Supplement For Cholesterol—Backed by Real Clinical Results

Dr. Kevin Passero

Hello, I’m Dr. Kevin Passero. For more than 20 years, I’ve reviewed thousands of cholesterol panels and guided patients through diet, lifestyle, natural solutions, and, when necessary, conventional therapies. More and more, I hear the same question: “What about citrus bergamot? What’s the best bergamot supplement to take?

It’s a smart question—because of all the nutrients I’ve studied, citrus bergamot is among the most researched and clinically validated, shown to support healthy cholesterol, triglycerides, and overall cardiovascular and metabolic balance.

Hello, I’m Dr. Kevin Passero. For more than 20 years, I’ve reviewed thousands of cholesterol panels and guided patients through diet, lifestyle, natural solutions, and, when necessary, conventional therapies. More and more, I hear the same question: “What about citrus bergamot? What’s the best bergamot supplement to take?

It’s a smart question—because of all the nutrients I’ve studied, citrus bergamot is among the most researched and clinically validated, shown to support healthy cholesterol, triglycerides, and overall cardiovascular metabolic balance.

But here’s the truth: most bergamot supplements simply don’t deliver meaningful results.

Why 9 Out of 10 Citrus Bergamot Supplements Fail Clinical Standards

Why 9 Out of 10 Citrus Bergamot Supplements Fail Clinical Standards

The supplement market is crowded with low-quality, ineffective formulas. Most bergamot products are made with:

  • Non-standardized bergamot extracts with no clinical backing
  • Ineffective dosages far below the 1,000 mg proven level
  • No absorption support such as vitamin C to enhance bergamot’s effectiveness
  • No complementary compounds like olive leaf extract for cardiovascular synergy
  • No third-party testing to ensure purity and potency

Without the right standardized extract, dosage, and supporting nutrients, you could take citrus bergamot for months without seeing any improvements.

This is exactly why so many patients come to me frustrated. They’ve tried the popular citrus bergamot supplements and seen little to no change.

That’s Why I Developed Durable HEART®

In my practice, I’ve found that only one citrus bergamot extract consistently delivers results backed by clinical trials—Bergamonte®.

But here’s the problem: most products don’t use Bergamonte® at all. And the few that do often cut corners with just 500 mg per day, a dose shown to be up to 80% less effective than the full clinical amount. The rare formulas that actually provide the full 1,000 mg clinical dosage are usually prohibitively expensive.

On top of that, my patients had to buy vitamin C separately to maximize absorption and olive leaf extract separately for arterial and cardiovascular support. For most people, the regimen quickly became too costly and inconvenient to follow long-term.

I knew there had to be a better way—for my patients and for anyone looking for a safe, effective solution to support healthy cholesterol and triglycerides.

That’s why, as Chief Science Officer of Durable®, the company I co-founded with my good friend and natural health advocate, Josh Corn. I developed Durable HEART®: a convenient, affordable, all-in-one formula that delivers Bergamonte® at the full 1,000 mg clinical dosage—along with vitamin C and olive leaf extract—in a single clinical-grade supplement.

And the results speak for themselves. Validated in 14 published human trials and standardized to >38% polyphenols, Bergamonte® has been shown to deliver real, measurable improvements:

Why Citrus Bergamonte® Works for Natural Cholesterol Support

Why Citrus Bergamonte® Works for Natural Cholesterol Support

Citrus bergamot is a polyphenol-rich fruit grown in Calabria, Italy. But not all extracts are equal. Only Bergamonte® is grown exclusively in this region and standardized for clinical potency.

Its bioactive compounds—especially brutieridin and melitidin—work on multiple cholesterol-regulating pathways, without the common side effects often seen with conventional approaches.

Bergamonte® supports cardiovascular and metabolic health through these mechanisms:


Reduces LDL
(bad) cholesterol

Helps prevent plaque
buildup in arteries*


Inhibits HMG-CoA
reductase

A key enzyme in
cholesterol production*


Activates Cholesterol
7α-hydroxylase

Converts cholesterol into
bile for elimination*


Stimulates
AMPK

The “master switch” for balanced
blood sugar and lipids*

Unlike conventional approaches, Bergamonte® works peripherally—lowering harmful cholesterol in the body while preserving healthy brain cholesterol important for memory and mood.

Why Olive Leaf Extract Makes Durable HEART® Better

While Bergamonte® delivers unmatched cholesterol and triglyceride support, Durable HEART® takes it a step further with 100 mg of pure olive leaf extract, sourced from freshly picked Spanish olive leaves and processed immediately after harvest to preserve maximum potency.

Olive leaf extract is rich in oleuropein, a powerful polyphenol that:

  • Supports healthy lipid metabolism to help maintain optimal cholesterol balance*
  • Promotes arterial health by protecting vessel walls from oxidative stress*
  • Helps regulate inflammation for better cardiovascular resilience*

Most bergamot supplements skip this critical companion ingredient. We include it because olive leaf’s benefits perfectly complement Bergamonte®—providing broader heart and arterial support for a more complete cardiovascular solution.

What Makes Durable HEART® the Best Choice for Cholesterol & Triglyceride Support

What Makes Durable HEART® the Best Choice for Cholesterol & Triglyceride Support

In my clinic, I’ve seen too many patients frustrated by citrus bergamot supplements that simply don’t deliver. They’re often underdosed, unstandardized, or missing the key companion nutrients that make all the difference. That’s why I created Durable HEART®a clinical-grade citrus bergamot supplement built on the same protocol I trust with my own patients.

1. Bergamonte® — The Gold-Standard, Full-Spectrum Extract

Durable HEART® delivers a full 1,000 mg clinical dosage of Bergamonte®—the only patented extract grown exclusively in Calabria, Italy and standardized to >38% polyphenols.

Backed by over 200 research papers and validated in 14 published human trials, Bergamonte® is also the only bergamot extract proven free of compounds known to interfere with other medications. That makes it the most clinically validated—and safest—form available, and the only one I trust in my clinic.

2. Full Clinical Dosage — Proven in Human Trials

Most supplements that feature Bergamonte® provide only 500 mg per serving. Durable HEART® doubles that amount, delivering the exact 1,000 mg daily dosage used in human trials—shown to lower LDL, raise HDL, reduce triglycerides, and support healthy blood sugar in as little as 30 days. Research shows this level to be up to 80% more effective.*

3. Vitamin C for Enhanced Bergamot Benefits

Most formulas leave out this critical cofactor. Durable HEART® includes 50 mg of premium non-GMO vitamin C to help your body fully utilize Bergamonte® while providing additional antioxidant support.* See the study →

4. Olive Leaf Extract for Artery & Inflammation Support

To further strengthen the formula, I included 100 mg of pure olive leaf extract, sourced from freshly picked Spanish olive leaves and processed immediately after harvest to preserve potency. Rich in oleuropein, this powerful polyphenol supports healthy lipid metabolism, arterial flexibility, and balanced inflammation—making it the perfect complement to Bergamonte®.* See the study →

5. Doctor-Formulated for Quality and Safety — Down to the Bottle

With over 20 years of clinical experience, I designed Durable HEART® to meet the highest standards of safety, purity, and effectiveness:

  • Clinical-grade ingredients at the dosages proven in human trials
  • Clean, non-GMO formula—no fillers, dyes, or unnecessary additives
  • Made in the USA in an FDA-approved, cGMP-certified facility
  • Third-party tested for purity, potency, and safety
  • Packaged in amber glass bottle to protect against UV light and plastic leaching
  • Backed by our 1-Year “Better Labs or Your Money Back” Guarantee
