Swapping meat for mycoprotein, found in Quorn-brand frozen products, could lower bad cholesterol by 10% in just four weeks, according to a study. Participants who consumed mycoprotein daily experienced a decrease in bad cholesterol levels, blood glucose levels, and C-peptide concentrations, which could indicate a reduced risk of Type 2 diabetes. The findings suggest that incorporating mycoprotein into the diet may offer a convenient way to improve heart health and manage cholesterol levels.
