Additive effects of lupin protein and phytic acid on aortic calcification in ApoE deficient mice

In conclusion, our results show that the cholesterol lowering properties of lupin protein isolate were not caused by phytic acid. However, the hypocalcific action of lupin proteins appears to depend on the combination of lupin proteins and phytic acid.
