Probiotic BSH Activity: The Bifidobacterium strains produce bile salt hydrolase (BSH), which deconjugates bile salts in the gut. This reduces bile acid reabsorption, prompting the liver to use circulating cholesterol to produce new bile acids - effectively lowering serum LDL-C.

Up to 50% reduction in intestinal cholesterol absorption with Phytosterols 800 mg (EFSA/FDA approved) — combined with BSH-mediated LDL-C diversion and CLA production for comprehensive dyslipidaemia control.
Why Cardi Forte works.
Lorpro-Cardiforte is a targeted cardiometabolic synbiotic designed to manage dyslipidaemia (elevated cholesterol and triglycerides) via the gut–heart axis.
It combines three Bifidobacterium strains (B. lactis, B. bifidum, B. longum) with Choline and Phytosterols to deliver a multi-pathway approach to lipid normalisation.
This complements diet and medication while supporting hepatic lipid metabolism and reducing intestinal cholesterol absorption.
Key Mechanisms
Probiotic BSH Activity: The Bifidobacterium strains produce bile salt hydrolase (BSH), which deconjugates bile salts in the gut. This reduces bile acid reabsorption, prompting the liver to use circulating cholesterol to produce new bile acids - effectively lowering serum LDL-C.
Bifidobacterium longum reduces triglycerides by generating propionate (a short-chain fatty acid) that inhibits hepatic de novo lipogenesis. Propionate competitively blocks acetyl-CoA utilization, suppressing fatty acid synthesis and VLDL-triglyceride production.
Additionally, these strains convert dietary linoleic acid into conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in the colon, which further lowers LDL-C and raises HDL-C.
Phytosterols: These cholesterol-like plant compounds competitively inhibit intestinal cholesterol absorption (by 30–50% at effective doses).
Both EFSA and FDA have approved health claims for phytosterol-mediated cholesterol reduction.
Together, the BSH-driven cholesterol diversion and phytosterol-blocked absorption create a synergistic dual-action effect that delivers greater lipid-lowering benefits than either component alone.
