13 Amazing Benefits of the Lactobacillus reuteri Probiotic

I've been taking this as well as a 'multiple stain' probiotic for about a year now.

L. reuteri Lowers Cholesterol

In one study, L. reuteri reduced LDL cholesterol by 11.64%, reduced total cholesterol by 9.14%, non-HDL-cholesterol by 11.30% and apoB-100 by 8.41% (R).

Hs-C-reactive protein and fibrinogen were reduced by 1.05 mg/l and 14.25%, respectively (R).

Another study used microencapsulated L. reuteri NCIMB 30242 yogurt taken twice a day over 6 weeks by adults with high cholesterol. Results included a reduction of LDL by 8.92% and total cholesterol 4.81% over the course of the study (R).

The L. reuteri in that form and delivery method was found to work better than probiotics traditionally used and comparable to other cholesterol-lowering methods (R).

L. reuteri lowers cholesterol, in part, by reducing the absorption of bile (by increasing the deconjugation of bile in the intestines) (R).
