| ABSTRACT |
|
Hyperlipidemia is one of the major factors causing the atherosclerosis of coronary arteries and a well-documented modifiable
risk factor for stroke, especially of the ischemic type.
Constipation is the condition of being unable to empty the bowels frequently enough or effectively. However, it is usually
temporary and not a serious disease.
Salicornia herbacea is a sea coast plant that grows on the western and southern coastal beaches and salt flats of the
Korean peninsula. Belonging to Chenopodiaceae by biological classification, Salicornia herbacea is not known from research
except that it contains plenty of minerals.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of treatment with Hamcho-hwanand to observe changes in total
cholesterol (T-Chol) high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), triglyceride (TG) and constipation.
After treatment, total cholesterol decreased from 273mg/dl to 235mg/dl. Triglyceride decreased from 201mg/dl to 126mg/dl.
HDL cholesterol increased from 30mg/dl to 40mg/dl. Constipation changed for the better.
These results support a role for oriental medical therapy in treating hyperlipidemia and constipation. Further case studies of
herbal treatment of this ailment are needed. |
