A personalized six-month nutraceutical/diet protocol reverses hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertriglyceridemia in a 60-year-old male with metabolic syndrome

A 60-year-old male with metabolic syndrome, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperglycemia underwent a six-month personalized regimen of six nutraceuticals and a diet intervention. The protocol resulted in complete reversal of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia, along with significant weight loss and improved glycemic response.

Brady DM, Coetzee O · Alternative therapies in health and medicine (2025)

Participants: N/A
Duration: 6 months
Intervention: Personalized six-month nutraceutical/diet protocol including Designs for Health Red Yeast Rice, Arterosil® HP, Metabolic Synergy™, Berberine-Evail™, GlucoSupreme™ Herbal, and Mito-NR™, plus dietary changes
Outcome: Reversal of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia; weight loss; improved glycemic response
Effect Size: N/A
Population: A single 60-year-old male with metabolic syndrome, sleep apnea, polyuria, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and hyperglycemia, with lifestyle factors including smoking, high sugar intake, poor diet, moderate alcohol, and lack of exercise

Result:

Mechanism Graph

Nutraceuticals (e.g., red yeast rice, berberine) and dietary changes reduce lipid synthesis and absorption
Improved insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism via berberine and other compounds
Reduction in inflammatory and oxidative stress markers
Result: Normalization of lipid profile and glycemic control

Limitations

  • Single case report with no control group, limiting generalizability
  • Confounding from multiple simultaneous interventions (nutraceuticals and diet) prevents attribution of effect to any single component
  • No objective sleep apnea measures reported despite diagnosis

Frequently Asked Questions

What nutraceuticals were used in this protocol?

The protocol included Designs for Health Red Yeast Rice, Arterosil® HP, Metabolic Synergy™, Berberine-Evail™, GlucoSupreme™ Herbal, and Mito-NR™.

Did the patient have sleep apnea, and was it treated?

The patient was diagnosed with sleep apnea, but the abstract does not report any specific sleep apnea treatment or outcome; the focus was on metabolic improvements.

How long did the intervention last?

The intervention lasted six months.

What were the key metabolic outcomes?

Complete reversal of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia, significant weight loss, and positive changes in hyperglycemia.
