Summary

In this study from China, subjects with stable coronary heart disease were evaluated for a positive change in their inflammation levels and blood lipids following vitamin B supplementation. After 12 weeks, concentrations of triglycerides, total cholesterol, and HDL levels were significantly improved. A change in homocysteine blood levels, considered a risk factor for numerous heart diseases, was also observed. The researchers conclude that dietary supplementation with vitamin B leads to a significant improvement in lipid metabolism, inflammation and homocysteine concentrations in patients with coronary heart disease.
