Abstract
Compositions including all or a portion and chemically or recombinantly synthesized analogues of the carboxy terminal region of bile salt-activated lipase (BAL) are described, which, when orally ingested, compete with native BAL in binding to the intestinal surface and thus reduce the amount of cholesterol taken into the blood stream.
