Cholesterol lowering effect of jackbean (Canavalia ensiformis) seed protein

General Pharmacology: The Vascular System, 1990
1. Feeding jackbean (Canavalia ensiformis) protein to hypercholesterolemic rats considerably lowered cholesterol levels in the experimental animals than when the animals were fed casein (control) diets. 2. The cholesterol levels in various components of test animals fed the Canavalia diet ranged from 53.3 +/- 1.7 to 74.8 +/- 3.4 mg/g (plasma); from 11 ...
