New study finds chocolate chip cookies lower cholesterol

ease Control, a 10 percent decrease in total cholesterol levels may result in an estimated 30 percent reduction in the incidence of coronary heart disease.

The soluble fiber in Right Direction Cookies absorbs fluids, cholesterol, fat and bile, carrying them through the digestive tract and out of the body in the stool. The plant sterols lower blood cholesterol by blocking cholesterol absorption from food during digestion. Psyllium is an excellent source of soluble fiber and when consumed regularly, it has a positive effect in the treatment of obesity, high blood pressure, irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, hemorrhoids and coronary artery disease.

"Our results suggest dietary treatment with Right Direction Cookies significantly affected the total number of lipoprotein particles and reduced plasma concentrations," said Jay Udani, a key researcher of the study and Medical Director of Medicus Research. "LDL levels dropped due to the high amount of plant sterols and soluble fibers in Right Direction Cookies."
