Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of kale (Brassica oleracea acephala) juice supplementation on serum lipid levels and phospholipid (PL) fatty acid compositions in hypercholesterolemic men. Thirty-two men with hypercholesterolemia (>200 mg/dl) were recruited among the faculty and staff at Y University after annual health examinations. The subjects consumed 150 ml of kale juice per day for a 12-week intervention period. Dietary and anthropometric assessments were performed before and after supplementation, respectively, to ensure that the subjects maintained their usual diet and lifestyle throughout the intervention. Serum concentrations of HDL-cholesterol and the ratio of HDL-cholesterol to LDL-cholesterol were significantly increased (p<0.001) after intervention. Serum LDL-cholesterol concentration and atherogenic index were significantly reduced (p<0.001). Levels of 12:0, 14:0, $18:1{\omega}9$, $18:3{\omega}6$, and sum of monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) in serum pholspholipid (PL) were significantly increased, while $22:4{\omega}6$ level was significantly reduced (p<0.05). It can be speculated that kale juice, containing large amounts of antioxidant nutrients, contributes to changes of serum-PL-fatty acid compositions and the improvements of serum lipid profiles. This study demonstrates the supplementation of regular meals with kale juice may favorably affect serum lipid profiles and serum-PL fatty acid compositions and, hence, could lower the risks of coronary artery disease in men with hypercholesterolemia.

고콜레스테롤혈증(총 콜레스테롤 농도 200 mg/dl 이상)인 성인 남자를 대상으로 12주간 케일녹즙 중재실험을 실시하여 실험 전과 후의 혈청 지질농도와 혈청 인지질 지방산 조성의 변화를 살펴보았다. 혈청 총 콜레스테롤 및 중성지방 농도는 녹즙 섭취 전과 후에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았으나 HDL-콜레스테롤 농도는 녹즙 섭취 후 유의하게 증가하였고, LDL-콜레스테롤은 유의하게 감소하였으며 atherogenic index 역시 녹즙 섭취 후 유의하게 감소하였다. 대상자들은 녹즙 섭취 전 후로 BMI, 허리둘레, 혈압 등의 신체계측치와 흡연, 음주 등의 생활습관 및 영양소 섭취패턴에 유의한 변화 없이 12주 중재실험기간 동안 평상시 생활패턴을 유지하였다. 실험에 사용된 녹즙에 섬유소가 거의 함유되어있지 않으므로 혈청지질 개선효과는 녹즙에 풍부한 항산화 영양소에 의한 효과로 사료된다. 녹즙섭취 후에 유의한 변화를 보인 혈청 인지질 지방산 조성 중에서 12:0, 14:0, $18:1{\omega}9$, $18:3{\omega}6$ 조성 및 총 단일불포화지방산 조성은 증가하고 $22:4{\omega}6$ 조성은 감소하였다. 특히 올레산($18:1{\omega}9$) 조성은 55~58% 증가하였는데 다중불포화지방산 못지않게 혈중 콜레스테롤 농도를 감소시켜주며, 다중불포화지방산보다 LDL의 산화를 감소시켜 동맥경화증이나 관상심장질환의 위험을 줄여주는 지방산으로 알려져 있다. 12주간의 녹즙섭취는 혈청 인지질의 지방산 조성은 크게 변화시키지 않지만 궁극적으로 지방조직의 지방산 조성에 변화를 초래하고 이로 인해 고콜레스테롤 환자의 혈중 지질농도를 개선시켜줄 것으로 사료된다.
