Summary

The primary purpose of our research will be to evaluate if, in subjects with a low-moderate cardiovascular risk (CV risk\>1% but \< 5%) evidenced by sub-optimal cholesterol levels as per ESC/EAS guidelines (LDL cholesterol \>115 mg/dL, \< 190 mg/dL) supplementation with a food supplement is able to significantly influence plasma lipid levels. Furthermore, the systemic activation status of the inflammatory cascade and the arterial wall stiffness will be investigated.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Dietary supplement formulated with components of natural origin: artichoke, danshen, bergamot, folic acid, chromium and excipients.

The study will be conducted in male and female subjects, at least 18 and less than 70 years of age, with suboptimal level of LDL-Cholesterol (LDL 115-190 mg/dL) randomized into two groups to receive a preconstituted food supplement (NUT) combination containing (Red yeast rice 160 mg + Berberis aristate 449,7 mg + Folic acid 200 μg and others) in combination with a standard Mediterranean diet at low cholesterol content (\<200 mg/day) (Standard of Care - SOC) \[group 1\], or a PLACEBO in combination with hypo-cholesterol diet (healthy Mediterranean diet following the indication of the European Atherosclerosis Society guidelines) \[group 2\].
