Beyond just “levels,” RAYDEL’s leading
researchers in South Korea are redefining heart health by focusing on the
“quality” of HDL, often called good cholesterol, a 30 year scientific journey
from the lab to your doorstep.

SINGAPORE, [March 16, 2026] Global
healthcare brand RAYDEL is proud to spotlight the scientific engine behind its
success: the RAYDEL HDL Research Institute (Korea). Led by Director Dr. Kyung-Hyun
Cho, who has been recognized as one of the “Top 1% Researchers Worldwide,” the
institute is advancing cardiovascular science by focusing on the quality of
High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL).

For decades, HDL, commonly known as “good cholesterol”,
has been associated with maintaining healthy cholesterol levels. However,
researchers at the RAYDEL HDL Research Institute have emphasized a different
perspective: HDL quality over quantity.

At the institute, scientists use advanced analytical technologies, including a transmission electron microscope, to closely examine HDL particles. This sophisticated imaging technology allows researchers to observe the shape, size, and structural characteristics of HDL particles at the microscopic level.

Such detailed analysis provides deeper scientific
insight beyond standard cholesterol measurements, helping researchers better
understand the functional characteristics of HDL.

“A high HDL number is like having a
large fleet of garbage trucks; if the trucks don’t work properly, the city
stays dirty,” says the Director of the RAYDEL HDL Research Institute. “Our
research focuses on making those ‘trucks’, your HDL particles, stronger,
faster, and more efficient.”

Proven Impact: Advancing HDL Research

The
institute’s efforts have contributed to the global success of RAYDEL
Policosanol 10, which contains the original active ingredient derived from Cuban
sugar cane wax.

Years of clinical data and
peer-reviewed studies associated with the institute’s research have
consistently shown that this original policosanol supports the quality and
functionality of HDL.
