Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether plant sterols esterified to fish oil fatty acids in a fish oil matrix improve the lipid profile predominantly LDL-cholesterol and TG concentrations in healthy hyperlipidemic subjects
Detailed Description: Phytosterols and omega-3 fatty acids n-3 are natural food ingredients with potential cardiovascular CVD benefits Phytosterols inhibit dietary cholesterol absorption and biliary cholesterol re-absorption thereby reducing blood cholesterol levels while consumption of n-3 is associated with a significant reduction in plasma triglyceride concentrations Furthermore n-3 may also beneficially modify a number of other risk factors of CHD like anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether plant sterols esterified to fish oil fatty acids in a fish oil matrix improve the lipid profile predominantly LDL-cholesterol and TG concentrations in healthy hyperlipidemic subjects In addition the supplement efficacy to lower other CVD-related risk factors of healthy will be evaluated
