Abstract
Objective
To assess effects of vitamin E and C supplements on lipid profiles and antioxidant capacity in cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients.
Subjects and Methods
Forty CVD patients with age 57.7±10.6 years were selected to consume vitamin C and E daily for two months. Plasma lipid profile concentrations and antioxidant capacity were measured.
Results
There was a decrease in cholesterol of 20%, triglyceride 21.9%, LDL 30.1%, and increase HDL 25.7% and an increase in antioxidant capacity of 62.8% (P<0.0001) .
Conclusion
The results showed that use of antioxidant supplements improved lipoprotein profile in parallel with increase in plasma antioxidant capacity. (Rawal Med J 2011;36:251-254).

Key words: Cholesterol, antioxidents, vitamin E, vitamin C.
