The Effect of 3-Week Consumption of Soya Beverage Enriched With Plant Sterols on Serum LDL-C

Dyslipidemia Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effect of Soya Beverage Fortified With Plant Sterol on Major Serum Lipids in Normocholesterolemic, Healthy Southern Chinese Individuals

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a local, single-center, two-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that examines the LDL-C-lowering effect of the consumption of a soya beverage enriched with plant sterol for 3 weeks. This study also examines if there is other health-benefits by consuming the plant sterols fortified soya beverage in terms of serum total triglyceride, total and HDL cholesterol, other cardiometabolic risk factors and musculoskeletal-related traits including handgrip strength, gait speed, peak expiratory flow rate, bio-impedance and body balance.

Clinical Trial Description

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the third commonest cause of deaths in Hong Kong and accounting for 14.4% of all deaths in 2012. Robust data attest the causal role of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in the development and progression of CVD. Reduction of LDL-C levels achieved by pharmacological agents in conjunction with diet change has been demonstrated to significantly reduce CVD morbidity and mortality. Moreover, it has been frequently reported that dietary incorporation of plant sterols/stanols could reduce blood LDL-C level in both healthy and dyslipidaemic individuals with great inter-individual variability of LDL-C response. Therefore, functional food enriched with plant sterols/stanols not only may provide additional LDL-C lowering benefit in dyslipidaemic patients as an adjunct to traditional pharmacologic therapy, but also play a role in primary prevention of CVD in the general population. ;
