Effect of soluble-viscous dietary fibre on coronary heart disease risk score across 3 population health categories: data from randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials

We applied the Framingham risk equation in healthy, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes populations, following treatment with viscous fibre from konjac-based blend (KBB). KBB yielded reduction in estimated risk score by 16% (1.04 +/- 0.03 vs. 0.87 +/- 0.04, p < 0.01) in type 2 diabetes, 24% (1.08 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.82 +/- 0.02, p < 0.01) in metabolic syndrome, and 25% (1.09 +/- 0.05 vs. 0.82 +/- 0.06, p < 0.01) in healthy individuals. Drivers for decreased risk were improvements in blood cholesterol and systolic blood pressure. The composite coronary heart disease risk across populations was reduced 22% (p < 0.01).
