Abstract

Background and Objective - It is generally believed in our community that unripe ‎grape juice (verjuice) has a lipid-lowering effect. There is no published data on the ‎lipid-lowering effect of verjuice, so this study sought to test this hypothesis‏.‏‎‎ Methods- In a prospective crossover study, 97 persons with primary hyperlipidemia ‎were enrolled. Group A (n = 47) received 80 mL verjuice daily at lunchtime for the ‎first two months of the study and group B (n = 50) received the same amount for the ‎last two months of the study. The total duration of the study was four months. The ‎serum lipid profiles were measured at the beginning and two and four months after ‎starting the trial. Results were analyzed by paired-samples t-test‏.‏‎‎ Results - The mean ± standard deviation levels of Triglyceride, total cholesterol, low-‎density (LDL) and high-density (HDL) lipoprotein cholesterol were measured. The p ‎value for all pairs was more than 0.05, indicating that verjuice has no lipid-lowering ‎effect‏.‏‎‎ Conclusion - Our study revealed that unripe grape juice has no lipid-lowering effect, ‎but its antioxidant effect on LDL cholesterol should be studied‏.‏
