Hypercholesterolemia
A double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial in 103 ambulatory, community-dwelling adults with hypercholesterolemia was conducted over an eight-week period. After eight weeks, the placebo group had a 5% decrease in LDL cholesterol, compared with a 4% increase in the standard-dose group (Guggul 1000 mg orally three times daily) and a 5% increase in the high-dose group (Guggul 2000 mg orally three times daily).
