Mechanism of lowering cholesterol level by probiotics. Probiotics breakdown or deconjugate bile salts into free choline, glycine and amino group by synthesizing bile salt hydrolase. Free choline excreted via choline, amino acid group is absorbed in the intestine, and free taurine and glycine return back to the liver. This increases the elimination of bile from body and more cholesterol is used to synthesize bile thereby, reducing the cholesterol level in the blood.
