简要总结
A diet-controlled clinical trial which attempts to provide estimates of the effect of black tea consumption on serum lipids under tightly controlled conditions, including a controlled diet. Mildly hypercholesterolemic individuals (total cholesterol levels between 4.9 and 6.7 mmol/L, 190 and 260 mg/dl), non-smoking, chronic disease-free individuals were enrolled in a 15-week, double blind, randomized crossover trial, during which they consumed a controlled low-flavonoid diet plus 5 cups of black tea or a tea-like placebo over two 4-week treatment periods.

Tea Treatment Group
5 cups brewed tea beverage per day for 28 days, brewed from 700 mg of black tea solids per cup
干预措施: Tea Treatment Group (Dietary Supplement)
Placebo Group
5 cups tea-like placebo per day for 28 days. Placebo was exactly matched to tea except for flavonoid composition. Placebo was flavonoid-free.
