- Abstract
The article assesses the impact of a diet comprised of foods with cholesterol-lowering properties, administered at two different intensity levels, on low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) level changes among subjects following self-selected diets. According to the authors, foods that have the ability to lower cholesterol have been proven to be effective in lowering serum cholesterol in conditions where metabolism is controlled. They reported that in their study, the overall attrition rate was not much different between treatments. They added that the use of the dietary portfolio resulted in greater decline in LDL-C compared with the results produced by a low-saturated fat dietary program.
