How Does Profibe Help in the Treatment of Arteriosclerosis?
While water-insoluble fibers such as those from wheat bran, whole grain breads, and brown rice promote more regular movement and alleviate intestinal ailments such as irritable bowel syndrome, water-soluble fibers are known to have a cholesterol-lowering effect.
They contribute to the reduction in the intestinal absorption of cholesterol and fatty acids, in the removal of bile acids, and in the reduction in cholesterol synthesis. Soluble fibers, such as those present in ProFibe, also bind cholesterol and aid in its elimination from the body.
