Abstract

Numerous evidences in vivo and vitro have showed that administration of lactic acid bacteria and related products were able to reduce medium and serum cholesterol.We reviewed the research progress in lactic acid bacteria which could reduce the cholesterol in vivo and vitro,and also discussed the mechanism of lactic acid bacteria in reducing cholesterol,proposed some issues existed in the current research,hoping this will be useful for the exploitation and utilization of lactic acid bacteria.
