Plant stanol ester consumption and arterial elasticity and endothelial function.
We evaluated whether plant stanol esters mixed with different vegetable oil spreads improved arterial health. A total of 200 adults with serum cholesterol >5 mmol/l were randomised to consume camelina, rapeseed or sunflower oil spread with stanol (2 g/d) ester or sunflower oil spread without stanol ester (controls) for 3 months. Non-invasive ultrasound was used to measure carotid artery complia...
متن کاملThe effects of plant stanol ester consumption on arterial stiffness and endothelial function in adults: a randomised controlled clinical trial
BACKGROUND The hypocholesterolemic effect of plant stanol ester consumption has been studied extensively, but its effect on cardiovascular health has been less frequently investigated. We studied the effects of plant stanol esters (staest) on arterial stiffness and endothelial function in adults without lipid medication. METHODS Ninety-two asymptomatic subjects, 35 men and 57 women, mean age ...
متن کاملPlant stanol and stanol ester : comparison on mimicking property for LDL lowering
Hyperlipoproteinemia is classified as an important risk for cardiovascular disease. At present, the standard treatment is with statins. However, statins may have some unfavorable side effects. Recently, a new concept, namely the use the plant derived stanol for lowering of LDL level was proposed. The author has performed an analysis on the structure of plant stanol compared to plant stanol este...
متن کاملImpact of pubertal development on endothelial function and arterial elasticity.
OBJECTIVES Little is known about the relation of pubertal development on endothelial function and arterial elasticity in children and adolescents; therefore, we compared brachial artery flow-mediated dilation and carotid artery elasticity across Tanner (pubertal) stages in children and adolescents. STUDY DESIGN Blood pressure, fasting lipids, glucose and insulin, body fat, insulin sensitivity...
متن کاملSerum, biliary, and fecal cholesterol and plant sterols in colectomized patients before and during consumption of stanol ester margarine.
BACKGROUND Cholesterol metabolic studies are simplified in colectomized patients because of rapid intestinal passage and reduced bacterial action. OBJECTIVE Our objective was to study the effect on cholesterol and plant sterol metabolism of feeding a margarine containing stanol ester to 11 colectomized patients. DESIGN A margarine containing 2 g stanol was consumed for 7-18 d. Serum, biliar...
