Chitosan für High Cholesterol (Hyperlipidemia)

C Evidenz Begrenzte Evidenz aus kleinen Studien, aber es gibt einige positive Signale.

Cochrane review of 14 RCTs: modest total cholesterol reduction (6-14 mg/dL). Clinical significance is debated. Fat-binding mechanism has theoretical appeal but limited practical impact.
