Juiced Up

A new study shows that the addition of plant sterols to a commercial orange juice product can actually lower LDL cholesterol. Cargill Health & Food Technologies' CoroWise[tm] plant sterols are featured in Minute Maid[r] Premium Heart Wise, a new product from the Coca-Cola Company. Since plant sterols inhibit the absorption of cholesterol, the addition of CoroWise to a healthy diet can reduce the risk of heart disease. By drinking two 8 oz. glasses of Minute Maid Premium Heart Wise orange juice, participants in the study showed lower levels of LDL and blood cholesterol overall.
