Two hundred grams of raw carrot eaten at breakfast each day for 3 weeks significantly reduced serum cholesterol by 11%, increased fecal bile acid and fat excretion by 50%, and modestly increased stool weight by 25%. This suggests an associated change in bacterial flora or metabolism. The changes in serum cholesterol, fecal bile acids, and fat persisted 3 weeks after stopping treatment.

What they didn't say is that those 200 grams replaced eggs, thereby lowering cholesterol.

So it is okay to eat insoluble fiber for the first meal of the day?

The carrot salad for breakfast?
