The primary objective was to substitute phytosterol and regula margarine into the diets of familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) patients and to investigate whether the phytosterol containing margarine had a cholesterol lowering effect. Another objective was to investigate immune responses to phytosterols. A randomized double-blind cross-over study in which subjects with FH consumed 20g of regular or phytosterol margarine for a period of 6 weeks on each margarine, after which a washout period of 4 weeks was followed. There were 5 visits in total, visit 1 being the collection of baseline data, visit 2 the randomisation to either of the regular of phytosterol margarine periods, visit 3 for the cross-ver to the alternative margarine form, visit 4 marked the onset of washout period and visit 5, was the last evaluation visit. Margarine use was in addition to current, albeit limite, pharmacological treatment with statins. 2014-07-29T09:03:46Z 2014-07-29T09:03:46Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/3396 eng application/pdf Department of Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
