Arboris LLC has released a new paper that substantiates the safety and efficacy of its Protanica plant sterol, authored by food scientist Dr. Jerzy Zawistowski of the University of Manitoba.
In its conclusion, the study review stated that Protanica is highly efficacious in lowering the plasma total and LDL cholesterol levels without adversely affecting absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and vitamins precursors. In addition, Protanica -enriched yogurt was found to be a safe and convenient functional food for the dietary management of cholesterol and risk of coronary heart disease.
“We are very pleased that a review of the research on Protanica consistently supports what is widely known in the worldwide functional ingredient marketplace — that plant sterols are safe and effective in reducing LDL ‘bad’ cholesterol and should be considered as an important additive by food manufactures looking to increase the heart-healthy properties of their product offerings,” stated Manuel Canales, president and CEO of Arboris, LLC.
