The regulation of the serum cholesterol level in man with particular reference to dietary factors
Fifty years ago, Ignatowski (1908) produced atherosclerotic lesions in rabbits by feeding them with a diet containing meat, milk and eggs. Since then, interest in the diet as a possible atherogenic factor has waxed and waned, but has never been greater than at present. Much of the credit for the pre...
