Administration of Fresh Juice of Tinospora cordifolia Decreases Levels of Urinary Markers of Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors in Hyperlipidemic Patients
Abstract:Objective: Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) Miers juice (TCJ) is known for its anti-hyperlipidemic properties. This study was aimed to validate the efficacy of TCJ to activate PPARα in vivo in hyperlipidemic (HPL) patients. Materials and Methods: HPL (n=20) and healthy (n=22) volunteers were enrolled in the study. HPL patients were treated with TCJ for 14 days. The fasting urine and blood samples were collected on 0 and 14 th day for analysis. The blood samples were used for biochemical analysis. Urine samples we… Show more
