dc.description.abstractSynbiotics have been conventionally used to improve gastrointestinal health. Although current researches have found new health potentials of synbiotics, little information is available on possible cholesterol-lowering effects and the mechanisms involved. This randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled study investigated the effects of a synbiotic product on the lipid profiles of hypercholesterolemic subjects and the possible mechanisms entailed. Thirty-two hypercholesterolemic subjects with initial mean plasma cholesterol levels of 5.70 ± 0.32 mmol/L were randomly allocated to two groups and were given four capsules of either synbiotic (Lactobacillus acidophilus CHO-220 and inulin) or placebo daily.en_US
