Abstract
The influence of high dose of choline and riboflavin on the fecal excretion of cholesterol and bile acids of albino rats kept on a high cholesterol diet was studied. Choline increased the fecal excretion of bile acid without showing any appreciable increase in the excretion of cholesterol in feces. Riboflavin did not show any appreciable increase or decrease in the excretion of cholesterol and bile acid in the feces of the animals fed a high cholesterol diet. Both choline and riboflavin exerted a cholesterol-lowering effect in the liver and blood of the animals fed a high cholesterol diet.
