New research is suggesting that, in addition to other benefits such as improved digestion and nutrition, appropriate GI flora may help reduce cholesterol as much as 9%!! Including healthy fermented foods can help support healthy GI flora: plain yogurt, kimchi, sauerkraut, kombucha, etc. If you choose to supplement, be careful: many over-the-counter products do not contain viable “bugs” and may even contain those you don’t want.
