Cholesterol Lowering Effects Of Milk With Added Phytosterols, Laura Kells Cusack
Master's Theses
Foods incorporating plant sterols (PS) reduce Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) on average approximately 10%. PS with a higher lipid solubility may promote greater reductions. We examined the cholesterol lowering effect of a novel triglyceride recrystallized phystosterol (TRP).
