Effect of resveratrol supplementation on lipid profile in subjects with dyslipidemia: A randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to explore the effect of resveratrol supplementation on lipid profile in individuals with dyslipidemia . METHODS Apparently healthy men and non-pregnant women 20 to 65 y of age with new diagnosis of dyslipidemia were enrolled in a r and omized double-blind , placebo-controlled trial and r and omly allocated to receive either resveratrol 100 mg/d or placebo ( sucrose 0.5 g/d ) for 2 mo . Smoking , alcohol intake , diabetes , acute or chronic renal or hepatic diseases , malignancy , cardiovascular disease , serum triacylglycerol levels ≥400 mg/dL , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels ≥190 mg/dL , and consumption of lipid-lowering drugs or supplements containing resveratrol were exclusion criteria . RESULTS Seventy-one individuals with new diagnosis of dyslipidemia were enrolled and r and omly allocated to the resveratrol ( n = 35 ) or placebo groups ( n = 36 ) . At baseline , there were no significant differences between the study groups . After intervention period , individuals in the resveratrol group showed a significant decrease in total cholesterol ( 201.4 ± 34.4 versus 220.6 ± 37.4 , P = 0.04 ) and triacylglycerol ( 133.4 ± 55.3 versus 166.7 ± 68.5 , P = 0.04 ) concentrations compared with the placebo group , without significant statistical differences for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels . CONCLUSION The results suggest that resveratrol supplementation significantly reduces total cholesterol and triacylglycerol concentrations in individuals with dyslipidemia
