BACKGROUND 
     Technical Field 
     The present invention relates to the technical fields of health-care products, foods and medicine, in particular to a hypolipidemic composition and use thereof. 
     Related Art 
     Hyperlipidemia means that one or more of lipids in plasma are higher than normal due to lipometabolism or functioning abnormality. It is a systemic disease with the blood total cholesterol (TC) and (or) triglyceride (or) being too high or high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) being too low, which is called dyslipidemia in modern medicine, and often called hyperlipoproteinemia. Most of hyperlipidemia has no any symptom in an initial stage. If not promptly corrected, the hyperlipidemia will generate progressive systemic damage to the body. It will accelerate systemic atherosclerosis, and then cause kidney failure. The current data research shows that the hyperlipidemia can induce the following diseases: coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, cerebral stroke, hypertension, diabetes, fatty liver, cirrhosis, cholelithiasis, pancreatitis, hyperuricemia and the like. 
     Amino acids are the most basic substances that constitute the organism protein and are related to life activities, are the basic unit constituting protein molecules in an organism, and are closely related to the life activities of the organism. The amino acids have a special physiological function in antibodies, and are one of indispensable nutrients in the organism. The amino acids can play the following roles through metabolism in the human body: {circle around (1)} synthesizing tissue proteins; {circle around (2)} changing into acids, hormones, antibodies, ceatine and other ammonia-containing substances; {circle around (3)} converting into carbohydrates and fats; {circle around (4)} oxidating into carbon dioxide, water and urea, and generating energy. Ornithine, which is a non-protein amino acid, can activate key enzymes of urea synthesis—ornithine carbamyl transferase and carbamyl phosphate synthetase, a reaction substrate ornithine can be provided, the synthesis of urea is accelerated through liver ornithine cycle, and the ammonia metabolism is promoted, so that the detoxification of blood ammonia can be realized. Aspartic acid can be directly involved in the urea cycle and involved in the triphosphate cycle and the synthesis of nucleic acids in liver cells firstly, and is conducive to repairing damaged liver cells. In addition, the aspartic acid has an indirect promotion effect on the process of metabolism of tricarboxylic acid in liver cells, and provides intermediate products of energy metabolism to promote the energy generation of liver cells, so that various functions of the damaged liver cells can be rapidly restored. 
     B vitamins are water-soluble vitamins, including vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin, pantothenic acid, folic acid and the like, and are indispensable substances that promote in vivo metabolism, and convert sugar, fat, protein and the like into heat. They have a synergistic effect, regulate metabolism, enhance the immune system and promote cell growth and division. B6 may be the most important one of all B vitamins. The body&#39;s muscles contain 70% to 80% of B6 in the whole body. B6 plays a key role in protein, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism. Therefore, the loss of a large number of B6 will cause amino acid metabolic disorders. Vitamin B6 is an important coenzyme for amino acid metabolism and synthesis, participates in the metabolism and other physiological processes of unsaturated fatty acids, is a coenzyme of many important enzyme systems in the organism, and is a nutrient necessary for animal normal development and bacteria and yeast reproduction. In addition, vitamin B6 is also a natural diuretic, diuresis plays a detoxification role, and 380 ml or so of urine can be produced by intravenously infusing 5 g of vitamin B6. The vitamin B6 is a coenzyme of the human body&#39;s amino acid metabolism, a neurotransmittery-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate (Glu). It is known that the vitamin B6 needs to be involved in more than 60 kinds of enzymes in the liver, and plays a very important role in promoting the normal enzyme metabolism of the organism, and the vitamin B6 has a short half life in vivo and is rapidly excreted. 
     As we all know, the liver plays an important role in lipid digestion, absorption, decomposition, synthesis and transportation and other metabolic processes. Lipid modification, synthesis, decomposition, ketone body formation, lipoprotein metabolism, etc. are carried out in the liver. Liver can secrete bile, and bile salts in bile can promote the digestion and absorption of lipids. Triglycerides absorbed from the digestive tract are not assimilated in the liver cells, and are transported to the adipose tissue to be stored; when a person feels hungry, the stored fat is mobilized to the liver and other tissues for catabolism. In the liver, β-oxidation of fatty acids is particularly active, so that a large number of acetyl-CoA(HMG-CoA) is generated, and the HMG-CoA is rapidly decomposed into the ketone body. And lipid transport and transformation are closely related to the liver function. For example, the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) in plasma is mainly synthesized in the liver, is converted into low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in the plasma, and releases part of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), while an important enzyme—lecithin cholesterol transacylase (LCAT) catalyzing these changes is also synthesized in the liver cells. If the above metabolic reactions are hampered, the lipid content in the liver will change; when the fat is excessively accumulated in the liver, the fatty liver will be caused. Chronic fatty liver can cause liver cell fibrosis, resulting in liver cirrhosis, and damaging the normal function of liver cells. The main occurrence principle of fatty liver is the excessive fat and fatty acids input into the liver, and the anabolism disorders of plasma lipoprotein in the liver. 
     In the modern society, with the improvement of living standards and the changes in dietary structure of people, the prevalence of hyperlipidemia is on the rise around the world. So far there are many drugs for treatment of hyperlipidemia, and most of them are chemically synthesized chemicals or Chinese herbal compounds formed by some traditional Chinese medicines. Chemical synthetic drugs have a small amount of harmful substances because of its production process, and have toxicity after long-term use, and the late effect is not very satisfactory; the Chinese herbal compound preparation needs to be used for a long time because of its moderate efficacy. Therefore, it is very necessary to develop novel effective hypolipidemic drugs or health-care products to reduce the health hazard of the blood lipid concentration to the human body. 
     SUMMARY 
     The object of the present invention is to provide a hypolipidemic composition for the above-mentioned technical problems. The hypolipidemic composition is a composition of compound amino acids and vitamins designed for patients suffering from hyperlipidemia, and can effectively reduce blood lipid concentration and awaken the ability of lowering blood lipid of patient bodies. 
     Another object of the present invention is to provide use of the above-mentioned hypolipidemic composition. 
     The objects of the present invention are achieved by the following technical solutions: 
     the hypolipidemic composition comprises ornithine, aspartic acid and vitamin b6. 
     The composition comprises the following components by a weight ratio: ornithine:aspartic acid:VB6=1:0.1-1.2:0.2-1.5, preferably ornithine:asparticacid:VB6=1:0.3-0.7:0.4-0.8, and further preferably ornithine:asparticacid:VB6=1:0.5:0.6. 
     The composition also comprises one or more of the following auxiliary components: vitamin C, citric acid, pantothenic acid, biotin and folic acid, 
     wherein the amounts of the auxiliary components are as follows by a weight ratio: 
     ornithine:VC=1:0.05-0.2, preferably, ornithine:VC=1:0.2-0.8, and further preferably, ornithine:VC=1:0.5; 
     ornithine:citric acid=1:0.001 to 0.05, preferably, ornithine:citric acid=1:0.001 to 0.03, and further preferably, ornithine:citric acid=1:0.01; 
     ornithine:pantothenic acid=1:0.00001-0.001, preferably, ornithine:pantothenic acid=1:0.00005-0.0008, and further preferably, ornithine:pantothenic acid=1:0.0005; 
     ornithine:biotin=1:0.000001-0.0005, preferably, ornithine:biotin=1:0.000001-0.0001, and further preferably ornithine:biotin=1:0.000003; 
     ornithine:folic acid=1:0.000001-0.0005, preferably, ornithine:folic acid=1:0.000003-0.0001, and further preferably, ornithine:folic acid=1:0.00005. 
     In the composition, the ornithine refers to L-ornithine, D-ornithine or DL-ornithine; and the aspartic acid refers to L-aspartic acid, D-aspartic acid or DL-aspartic acid. 
     The dosage form of the composition as a health-care product or a drug is any one of pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms. The preferable dosage forms are granules, tablets, capsules, powders, pills, powders, medicinal liquors, ointments, pellets or granules, membranes, oral solutions and injections. 
     The composition is applied in the preparation of hypolipidemic health-care products, drugs, foods or food additives. 
     The food additives can be added and applied to various kinds of foods, for example, the food additives can be used as additives for baking pastries, drinks, butter dairy products and the like. 
     The technical solutions of the invention comprehensively utilize the effect characteristics of the ornithine, the aspartic acid, the vitamin B6 and other substances; when the ornithine, the aspartic acid and the vitamin B6 are used in combination, the ornithine used as a reaction substrate of the urea cycle rapidly activates the urea cycle in the liver cells, so that the enzyme metabolism in liver is gradually restored, and thus the vitality of the liver can be restored to play a liver protecting role. Aspartic acid can be directly involved in the urea cycle and involved in the triphosphate cycle and the synthesis of nucleic acids in liver cells firstly, and is conducive to repairing damaged liver cells. In addition, the aspartic acid has an indirect promotion effect on the process of cycle metabolism of tricarboxylic acid in liver cells, and provides intermediate products of energy metabolism to promote the energy generation of liver cells, so that various functions of the damaged liver cells can be rapidly restored. Vitamin B6 is an important coenzyme for amino acid metabolism and synthesis, participates in the metabolism and other physiological processes of unsaturated fatty acids, is a coenzyme of many important enzyme systems in the body, and is a nutrient necessary for animal normal development and bacteria and yeast reproduction. And the vitamin B6 is also a natural diuretic, and diuresis plays a detoxification role. Therefore, the ornithine, the aspartate and the vitamin B6 used in combination can effectively repair the damaged liver cells, restore the liver function, and wake up the body&#39;s ability to reduce the blood lipid. The three are used in combination to produce phosphatidylcholine to help the emulsification of fat; the liver can also promote the synthesis of bile salts, and digest a large number of triglycerides. The liver is not only an important organ for synthesizing cholesterol in the body, but also cholesterol transported into the liver by the high-density lipoprotein can also be converted in the liver cells and excreted. Part of cholesterol directly used as a bile component together with a bile salt enters the intestine through a bile duct, and the metabolic waste can be smoothly excreted under the action of the vitamin B6 at this time. 
     The composition provided by the invention has the advantages that: 
     the curative effect is significant on hyperlipidemia; compared with the existing chemical synthetic drug and traditional Chinese herb compound hypolipidemic method, the composition prepared by the invention not only has less side effect, less recurrence of the disease, and short treatment cycle, but also provides nutritional support for the patients, effectively restores the hypolipidemic function of the body, and promotes enzyme metabolism to achieve the purpose of treating both symptoms and root causes. 
     The components adopted by the composition provided by the invention can be all derived from food, have high safety, and have no toxic and side effect after being eaten for a long time, but the content ratio of the components is inconsistent with that in food. It is found through experiments that the composition can play a hypolipidemic role while the general food has no such effect.

     b) Effect of the Composition Provided by the Invention on Liver Function of Rats 
     The liver function could be reflected by ALT and AST in the serum. The levels of ALT and AST in the high-fat feed group were significantly higher than those in the basic feed group (P&lt;0.01), indicating that there was a certain damage to the liver. The levels of ALT and AST in the serum in each administration group were lower than those in the model control group, and there was a significant difference between the middle-dose group, the high-dose group and the model control group (P&lt;0.01), indicating that the composition provided by the invention has a significant effect on protection of liver function, and a significant protecting effect on the organism.

     The contents of TC, TG and LDL-C were significantly decreased while the content of HDL-C was increased after the hyperlipidemia rats were drenched with the composition provided by the present invention; and the increase in ALT and AST in the serum caused by the high-fat feed was inhibited. It was indicated that the composition provided by the invention promoted fatty acid metabolism, improved intrahepatic lipid metabolism, protected liver cells and regulated lipids and protected liver, and was especially suitable for hyperlipidemia patients with high risk caused by liver function damage. Pharmacological experiments proved that the ornithine, the aspartic acid and the vitamin B6 had a synergistic effect, and could enhance the efficacy each other. 
     Example 12: Effect of Composition Provided by the Invention in Clinical Treatment 
     1. Case Selection 
     Patients with more than 5.7 mmol/L of serum total cholesterol (TC) and (or) more than 1.7 mmol/L of triglyceride (TG) were selected as observation objects, and there were 24 cases in total, including 14 males and 10 females, aged 26 to 69 years. 
     2. Diagnostic Criteria 
     Referring to “Internal Medicine” published by People&#39;s Medical Publishing House in 2010, the diagnostic criteria of hyperlipidemia was as follows: serum total cholesterol (TC) was more than or equal to 5.72 mmol/L, triglyceride (TG) was more than or equal to 1.70 mmol/L, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) was more than or equal to 3.10 mmol/L, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL-C) was less than or equal to 1.04 mmol/L for males, and less than or equal to 1.17 mmol/L for females. 
     3. Treatment Method 
     All patients were prohibited from drinking alcohol and eating excessive lipid food at dinner on the day before blood drawing, and TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C were measured by drawing venous blood after the patients fasted for more than 12 hours. Then, the composition provided by the present invention (prepared as in Example 3) was administered three times a day for four continuous weeks, two pills were taken once, each pill contained about 0.25 g of the composition provided by the present invention, and spicy food, especially alcohol was restrained during treatment. 
     4. Efficacy Evaluation Standards 
     Markedly effective: After treatment, the blood lipid was detected to conform to any one of the following standards: TC was decreased by more than or equal to 20%, or TG was decreased by more than or equal to 40%, or HDL-C was increased by more than or equal to 0.26 mmol/L, or HDL-C/LDL-C was decreased by more than or equal to 20%, or LDL-C was decreased by more than or equal to 30%. 
     Effective: the blood lipid was detected to conform to any one of the following standards: TC was decreased by more than or equal to 10% and less than 20%, or TG was decreased by more than or equal to 20% and less than 40%, or HDL-C was increased by more than or equal to 0.14 mmol/L and less than 0.26 mmol/L, or HDL-C/LDL-C was decreased by more than or equal to 10% and less than 20%, or LDL-C was decreased by more than or equal to 20%. 
     Ineffective: the blood lipid was obviously improved or the improvement on the blood lipid did not conform to the standards before and after treatment. 
     5. Treatment Effects 
     After 24 cases of patients were treated with the composition provided by the invention for two weeks, the composition was markedly effective in 8 cases, effective in 11 cases, and ineffective in 5 cases, and TC and TG were decreased to different degrees in they ineffective cases. After the composition provided by the invention was continuously administered for two weeks, the composition was markedly effective in 14 cases, effective in 9 cases, and ineffective in 1 case, the inefficiency was 4.2%, and the total efficiency was 95.8%. 
     6. Description of Specific Cases 
     (1) Gao, male, 33 years old, hyperlipidemia. Before treatment, the total cholesterol (TC) was 6.31 mmol/L and the triglyceride (TG) was 2.16 mmol/L. The total cholesterol (TC) was decreased to 4.92 mmol/L and the triglyceride (TG) was decreased to 0.99 mmol/L two weeks after administration of the composition provided by the present invention. 
     (2) Xu, female, 69 years old, hyperlipidemia. Before treatment, the total cholesterol (TC) was 5.79 mmol/L and the triglyceride (TG) was 4.12 mmol/L. The total cholesterol (TC) was decreased to 5.46 mmol/L and the triglyceride (TG) was decreased to 1.50 mmol/L two weeks after administration of the composition provided by the present invention.
