Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a natural supplement called 2-hydroxybenzylamine (2-HOBA) can reduce harmful oxidized lipids and improve the function of lipoprotein(a) in adults with high lipoprotein(a) levels.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does 2-HOBA lower oxidized phospholipids on lipoprotein(a)? Does 2-HOBA reduce markers of inflammation and blood clotting in the blood?

Participants will:

Take 2-HOBA capsules (400 mg, three times daily with meals) for 6 weeks Provide blood and urine samples at the beginning, middle, and end of the study Have lab tests to measure changes in lipids, inflammation, and clotting markers
