The effect of curcumin administration in reducing the serum levels of cholesterol and lipid peroxides was studied in ten healthy human volunteers, receiving 500 mg of curcumin per day for 7 days. A significant decrease in the level of serum lipid peroxides (33%), increase in HDL Cholesterol (29%), and a decrease in total serum cholesterol (11.63%) were noted. As curcumin reduced serum lipid peroxides and serum cholesterol, the study of curcumin as a chemopreventive substance against arterial diseases is suggested.
在10名健康人类志愿者中研究了姜黄素给药对降低血清胆固醇和脂质过氧化物水平的作用，这些志愿者每天服用500毫克姜黄素，持续7天。结果发现血清脂质过氧化物水平显著降低（33%），高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平升高（29%），血清总胆固醇水平降低（11.63%）。由于姜黄素降低了血清脂质过氧化物和血清胆固醇，因此建议研究姜黄素作为预防动脉疾病的化学预防物质。
