Macro partitioning
Adherence to the DASH diet significantly reduces total cholesterol (-0.35 mmol/L) and LDL cholesterol (-0.28 mmol/L) within 8 weeks, with greater magnitude observed in male participants.
Adopt the DASH diet pattern: eat 6-8 servings of grains, 4-5 servings of vegetables, and 4-5 servings of fruits daily. Include 2-3 servings of low-fat dairy and limit meat to under 180g per day. You can expect a measurable drop in cholesterol within two months, especially if you are male.

Приверженность диете DASH уже через 8 недель вызывала достоверное снижение уровней общего ХС (–0,35 ммоль / л), ЛНП (–0,28 ммоль / л) и ЛВП (–0,09 ммоль / л) без значимого влияния на уровень ТГ. Причем более значимые различия отмечались у участников исследования мужского пола [14].
