title: [Improvement in blood lipids and lipoproteins by simple nutritional modification, exemplified by a high-fiber modified so-called "heart diet" of a West German clinic: the therapeutic gain due to expanding and high fiber foods].
abstract: In a clinical study with 40 patients with cardiovascular disease or severe hypercholesterolamia is shown the beneficial cholesterol-lowering effect of a high fibre diet with a high part of soluble plant fibres (pectines, beta-glucanes, psyllium hydrophilic mucilloid). This by fibre content selectet nutrition was integrated in a so called "prudent heart diet" over 3 to 33 weeks. Total cholesterol was lowered from 356 mg/dl (in average) to 246 mg/dl (-20.3%), APO B from 126.3 mg/dl to 103.1 mg/dl (-15.2%) triglycerides from 251 mg/dl to 222 mg/dl (-11.8%) HDL-cholesterol increased from 46 mg/dl to 49 mg/dl (+7.6%), APO A-I from 123 mg/dl to 136 mg/dl (+10.1%).
