A Specific Sugar Can Help Get Rid of Cholesterol

Description

Scientists have discovered that a sugar that freshens air may also clean cholesterol out of hardened arteries. Researchers report this week in Science Translational Medicine that the sugar, which is called cyclodextrin, removed cholesterol that had built up in the arteries of mice that were fed a high-fat diet. Cyclodextrin is the active ingredient in the air freshener Febreze and it is also used in a wide variety of drugs.
