Possible Interaction: Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Psyllium

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

In the second experiment, we have also found that psyllium feeding lowered significantly plasma total cholesterol and VLDL-cholesterol concentrations in hamsters fed n–3 PUFA but not in those fed n–6 PUFA.
Our data also showed that hamsters fed both high-cholesterol n–3 PUFA and n–6 PUFA diets had a significant decrease in hepatic cholesterol with intake of psyllium.
This study was conducted to determine whether psyllium is known to alter cholesterol metabolism modulate the hypercholesterolemic effect of a high cholesterol, n–3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) diet in hamsters.
