Kardea Nutrition Links Dietitians & Natural Foods Retailers with Natural Cholesterol Management Speakers’ Bureau

Lifestyle changes emphasizing therapeutic nutrition offer significant opportunities to positively affect a range of interconnected health issues --- including cholesterol management, metabolic syndrome, diabetes and hypertension. Generally, where these multiple issues occur, the importance of cholesterol management is amplified.

The challenge: consumers are often confused or misinformed in regard to the best ways to use nutrition to naturally improve cholesterol levels. Numerous studies, including those reviewed by the Food & Drug Administration, the American Heart Association and the National Institutes of Health, have shown that a 20-30% reduction in LDL cholesterol levels is readily achievable with nutritional therapy.

As part of an initiative to enhance consumer understanding, Kardea Nutrition is developing a program to link food retailers, particularly natural foods retailers, with registered dietitians.

Among the components of this Kardea initiative is the creation of a Natural Cholesterol Management Speakers’ Bureau. As part of this program, dietitians with proven expertise in cholesterol management will be providing in-store classes that address the integrated roles of fiber, plant sterols, niacin, omega-3s, and monounsaturated fats.

Nutritional health professional and natural foods retailers interested in participating in this program should contact Kardea Nutrition directly at customerservice@kardeanutrition.com.
