Sugarcane's role in lowering cholesterol
An Australian study found that a polyphenol-rich sugarcane extract helps lower bad cholesterol levels and improve cardiovascular health. Forty-seven volunteers received daily doses of the extract for six months, which led to reductions in very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), triglycerides, and trans fats compared to a placebo. The results showed that the extract induced positive changes in gut bacteria associated with metabolism, increasing the likelihood of its use as a supplement to prevent heart disease, while emphasizing that it does not replace cholesterol medications.
