Abstract
Abstract: A 60-year-old male with lifestyle factors including excessive cigarette smoking, high intake of sugared energy drinks, high processed Standard American Diet (SAD), moderate alcohol intake, and lack of exercise presented symptoms of fatigue, frequent urination, poor wound healing, lethargy, insomnia, excessive snoring, and dizziness. A diagnosis of sleep apnea, polyurea, metabolic syndrome, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperglycemia was made by the treating physician. The patient was advised a personalized high-quality supplement regimen and diet intervention for six months. The supplement regimen consisted of Designs for Health Red Yeast Rice, Arterosil® HP, Metabolic Synergy™, Berberine-Evail™, GlucoSupreme™ Herbal, and Mito-NR™. The protocol resulted in complete reversal of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia, significant weight loss, and positive changes in hyperglycemia. This case report investigated the scientific basis of the intervention (nutraceuticals and their constituents and the dietary protocol), rationale, and outcome.
Keywords: case report, metabolic syndrome, hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
