Tokyo (JCNN) - Ajinomoto, a leading Japanese food product company, announced August 30 that it will introduce Pure Select Sararia, a new mayonnaise product, in the domestic market on September 10.

Approved by the Ministiry of Health, Labor and Welfare as a specified health food in August, the new product helps lower blood-cholesterol levels.

A daily 15-gram intake lowers a total cholesterol level, especially an LDL level, to a normal level, according to the company.

The product maintains a taste similar to regular mayonnaise products.

The company is aiming for sales of 3 billion yen ($27.3 mil) in sales in fiscal 2005.
