Inulin has been shown to be an effective therapeutic for reducing total cholesterol and triglycerides. In a Clinical Lipidology study, net changes in total cholesterol, LDL-C, HDL-C and triglycerides of hyperlipidemic and normolipidemic subjects with inulin compared with controls were calculated. The results indicate that a diet rich in inulin has beneficial effects on total cholesterol and LDL-C, as well as triglyceride concentration in the plasma of hyperlipidemic subjects.
Steve: Among the many products that contain inulin, two that we commonly recommend are Metamucil Clear and Natural and Sweet Leaf Stevia Plus packets.
