16 gru 2019 · Ravn-Haren et al. have shown that a clear apple juice (total polyphenols, 108 mg/d; total pectin, 0.03 g/d; total sugars, 63 g/d) intake for 4 wk, in 23 healthy participants, increased LDL cholesterol compared with WAs (total polyphenols, 239 mg/d; total pectin, 2.87 g/d; total sugars, 51 g/d).

13 wrz 2024 · Pectin is a water-soluble fiber that can bind cholesterol in the gut, thereby preventing its absorption into the bloodstream. Research suggests that the proper dose for high cholesterol is 15 grams of pectin per day.
15 cze 2021 · Apple pectin may boost heart health by lowering cholesterol and blood pressure levels. This substance binds to bile acids in your small intestine, which may help improve...
26 maj 2015 · Apple pectin as a soluble, nondigestible and viscous fiber has the ability to increase bile acids and/or cholesterol passage to the colon and faeces through formation of complexes and may also interrupt the enterohepatic circulation and reduce plasma cholesterol levels [136,137,147,149].
5 wrz 2024 · Apple pectin lowered LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, considered "bad" cholesterol, by 4.94 to 9.26 millimoles per liter (mmol/L) and total cholesterol by 3.73 to 6.54 mmol/L. A collection of research (a meta-analysis) similarly found that apple pectin reduced LDL cholesterol levels.
3 maj 2022 · The intake of apples decreased atherogenic cholesterol levels (Chai et al., 2012), enhanced endothelial function (Bondonno et al., 2018), and decreased the bone mass index (Gayer et al., 2019) in clinical trials. These collective research findings could be crucial in preventing CVD.
18 cze 2022 · Studies found that the ingredients in apples most likely contributing to the improved cholesterol levels were pectin and polyphenols. A few studies found that the polyphenols contained in apples can lower also the oxidation of LDL, which could contribute to the formation of atherosclerosis.
