It lowers so call bad cholesterol (LDL), (LDL) is not a cholesterol, it is a protein that carries cholesterol from the liver to the arteries. while elevating the so call good cholesterol (HDL), (HDL) is not a cholesterol it is a protein that carries cholesterol from the arteries to the liver, so (HDL) & (LDL) is really a transporter of cholesterol from one place to another in the body.
