Partner Series—Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Disease and the Role of the Novel Fiber, ARTINIA™, in Cardiovascular Health

INSIDER Partner Series

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in America today, with coronary artery disease the most common type.  Supporting a healthy heart starts by supporting healthy arteries and fighting the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL or “bad”) cholesterol that can adversely affect heart health.

While fiber is known for its heart health benefits, a new novel, vegetarian fiber has been shown in research studies to reduce LDL oxidation and support healthy arteries. Learn more about consumer perceptions of fiber and discover the new approach to supporting cardiovascular health that ARTINIA™ can deliver.
