Résumé
Background
Lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is an effective strategy to reduce coronary heart disease risk. Plant sterols/stanols, soluble fiber, and soy protein have each shown LDL-C-lowering effects. This study compared the effects of plant sterol-and soluble fiber-enriched soymilk (SFSM) versus plain soymilk (SM) on LDL-C over 8 weeks.
