Journal ArticleDOI
Soybean-protein diet in the treatment of type-II hyperlipoproteinaemia.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that a soy protein has a hypocholesterolaemic action per se is supported by the results of a subsequent experiment in 8 type-II patients in whom the addition of cholesterol (500 mg/day) to soy protein did not modify the hypocholesterololaemic response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled evaluation of fat intake in the Mediterranean diet: comparative activities of olive oil and corn oil on plasma lipids and platelets in high-risk patients
Cesare R. Sirtori,Elena Tremoli,E. Gatti,G Montanari,Marina Sirtori,Susanna Colli,Gemma Gianfranceschi,Paola Maderna,C Z Dentone,G Testolin +9 more
TL;DR: An olive oil diet with a moderate fat intake leads to favorable plasma lipoprotein and platelet changes, and changes in platelet function were characterized by a reduced sensitivity to arachidonic acid and to collagen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical experience with the soybean protein diet in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia
Cesare R. Sirtori,E. Gatti,O. Mantero,Franco Conti,E. Agradi,Elena Tremoli,Marina Sirtori,L Fraterrigo,Luigi Tavazzi,David Kritchevsky +9 more
TL;DR: Treatment with the soybean diet is an effective regimen for inducing a significant cholesterol reduction in type II patients refractory to standard low lipid regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Soy and cholesterol reduction: clinical experience.
Cesare R. Sirtori,Maria Rosa Lovati,Cristina Manzoni,Marco Monetti,Franco Pazzucconi,E. Gatti +5 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that, in man, similar to experimental animals, soy protein may in some way up-regulate LDL receptors depressed by hypercholesterolemia or by dietary cholesterol administration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypercholesterolaemia treated by soybean protein diet.
A. Gaddi,G. C. Descovich,G. Noseda,C. Fragiacomo,A Nicolini,G Montanari,G Vanetti,M. Sirtori,E. Gatti,C. R. Sirtori +9 more
TL;DR: In view of the psychological difficulties of prescribing treatment with drugs to children with severe hypercholesterolaemia before puberty and of the relative ineffectiveness of standard low lipid diets in this condition the soybean protein diet may offer a satisfactory alternative.
