Methods and design: Double Blind Clinical Trial by recruiting 34 male subjects, at Hasanuddin University hospital Clinic, aged between >25-55 years, waist circumference of >90 were treated for 8 weeks. Intervention Group (n=17) received 4 gram of cocoa extract cap/day, and control group (n=17 ) received placebo. Both groups had a 15% energy restriction and fat < 25% without any change in activities.
Result: The study showed after 8 weeks, there was no changes on total cholesterol and triglycerides levels in both groups (p>0.05), LDL-C decreased significantly in both groups. There were no changes on TNF- α, ox- LDL and apo-B levels in both groups (p>0,05). HDL-C increased significantly in cocoa group (p=0.04) in atherogenic cocoa group (p=0.04)
Conclusion: cocoa extract supplementation within a hypocaloric and low fat diet increased HDL-C, decreased triglyceride in atherogenic dyslipidemia. No significant changes showed in TNF- α, ox-LDL and apo- B levels in both groups
