"If you use the low fat/low-cholesterol version (the non-fat, no yolk ingredients) of this recipe and eat 3 of these muffins everyday with a low fat/low cholesterol diet...it will help to reduce the cholesterol in your body. These also taste very good and are good for you. This is my version of a recipe from the book, "The 8 week cholesterol diet". It worked for DH and I very well. If you change the kinds of dried fruit used, it will help to keep you from getting tired of eating them. You can also substitute fruit juices for the milk to vary the flavors if you wish. DO NOT OVERBAKE!!!!"
