Effects of legume consumption on serum cholesterol, biliary lipids, and sterol metabolism in humans.
TLDR
The data suggest that legume consumption lower LDL cholesterol by partially interrupting the enterohepatic circulation of bile acids and increases cholesterol saturation of biles by increasing hepatic secretion of cholesterol.About:

Meta-Analysis of the Effects of Soy Protein Intake on Serum Lipids
TL;DR: It is found that the consumption of soy protein rather than animal protein significantly decreased serum concentrations of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides without significantly affecting serum HDL cholesterol concentrations.

A peroxidase-coupled method for the colorimetric determination of serum triglycerides.
TL;DR: This sensitive chromogen system not only permits use of unusually small sample volumes, it also facilitates a linear response to serum triglyceride concentrations up to at least 10 g/L while displaying good Ringbom (measure of accuracy) characteristics.
