TEDSCD: The Effects of Dietary Supplement of Coenzyme Q10(CoQ10) on Dyslipidemia
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In previous study the investigators found that CoQ10 can improve cholesterol efflux from macrophages in cell model, ApoE mice model and small-scale of healthy volunteers. In addition, CoQ10 has strong antioxidant activity and is an essential factor of mitochondria electron transport chain. So the investigators hypothesize that CoQ10 may have some health promotion effect on dyslipidemia, risk factor of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases. On this purpose, the investigators are going to recruit 150 dyslipidemia patients to supply CoQ10+vitamin E or CoQ10 alone or placebo in different doses for 24 weeks to explore the effects of CoQ10 on cholesterol efflux and lipid profiles on dyslipidemia.

Experimental: combined group each coenzyme Q10 vitamin E softgel contain CoQ 10 30mg + vitamin E 16mg; The subjects in this arm take 2 softgels after lunch and supper respectively per day. Total supplementation is 120mgCoQ10 and 64mg vitamin per day. The duration is 24 weeks. |
Dietary Supplement: coenzyme Q10 vitamin E softgel
4 coenzyme Q10 and vitamin E softgels per day for 24 weeks. Keep normal lift style unchanged.
