ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to the treatment of vascular disorders particularly arteriosclerosis and atherosclerosis in warm-blooded animals. The invention encompasses the ingestion, by warm-blooded animals, of eggs or egg fractions derived from female avians that have been hyperimmunized with specific bacterial antigens or groups of bacterial antigens. The invention is directed to methods of controlling cholesterol levels, lipid deposits, and the development of atheromatous lesions in warm-blooded animals by the ingestion of eggs or fractions thereof produced in female avians hyperimmunized with specific bacterial antigens. The invention is also directed to methods of producing the eggs and to vaccines for hyperimmunization of the female avians.
