Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Oxidative Stress

• Registration Number: NCT01278589
• Lead Sponsor: Ewha Womans University

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the antioxidant effect of Plantago asiatica L. extract in subjects with mild hyperlipidemia.

Detailed Description

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an acute effect of Plantago asiatica L. extract consumption on antioxidative biomarkers in subjects with mild hyperlipidemia. Subjects will intake Plantago asiatica L. extract with a high fat meal for oxidative stress loading. Antioxidative biomarkers will be measured after single-dose administration of Plantago asiatica L. extract.
