* Subject requiring immediate treatment with statin
* Subject requiring immediate dietary intervention or having fluctuating eating behavior
* Diabetic subjects treated or not with medication
* Subjects with unstable treatment (for less than three months), or requiring the implementation of treatment during the study which, according to the investigator, could interfere with the evaluation of the study criteria (efficacy: LDL, TG, HDL, blood sugar, blood pressure, weight; safety: markers of liver, muscle or kidney function)
* Subjects who have consumed in the last 3 months food supplements or functional foods that could impact cholesterol or TG levels (phytosterol, phytostanol, red yeast rice, policosanols, beta-glucans at a dose greater than 3 g/day, probiotics)
* Subjects suffering from a severe chronic condition deemed incompatible with the study by the investigator (serious digestive pathologies, renal failure, coronary pathology, immunodeficiency, heart failure, rhythm disorders, progressive tumor pathology, blood disease)
