PROBIOTICS SUPPORTING THE REDUCTION
OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE RISK
Probiotics
(especially L. reuteri, L. plantarum, B. longum, B. breve) help reduce total
cholesterol, LDL-C, and triglycerides; increase HDL-C; regulate blood pressure
through increased endothelial NO, reduced angiotensin II, decreased
inflammatory response, and TMAO—risk factors for atherosclerosis.
Supplementing probiotics in functional foods is a potential supportive treatment for cardiovascular disease prevention, in accordance with FAO/WHO standards (2001).
