Summary
This study tested whether a specific probiotic, Lactobacillus mucosae DPC6426, can lower cholesterol in adults with mildly high levels (between 5.5 and 8 mmol/L). Over 12 weeks, 94 participants took either the probiotic or a placebo. The goal was to see if this natural approach could help manage cholesterol without the side effects of statins.
