This project develops meat-based functional foods that can lower cholesterol levels by inhibiting cholesterol production and absorption. It utilizes extracts from edible mushrooms to create products like pâté and snacks, which are tested for their effectiveness in reducing cholesterol.
This proposal is focused on the development of a meat-based functional food (pâté, sausage, snacks etc.) able to effectively reduce cholesterol levels in serum by acting simultaneously at two different levels: (I) reducing endogenous
cholesterol synthesis by inhibiting the hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (the key enzyme in the cholesterol metabolism) and (II) impairing exogenous cholesterol absorption during digestion by its displacement from the dietary mixed
micelles and binding of bile ac…
