We treated a 45 year-old male patient. He had Hypertension, Diabetes, Hyperlipidemia and Obesity. The main symptoms were Low-back pain, General body weakness, Abdominal discomfort. We diagnosed him as metabolic syndrome and prescribe Yagwanchunghyul-tang three times a day. We observed clinical symptoms Blood pressure, Capillary blood glucose, BMI, Body weight. Cholesterol, Triglyceride. After the treatment, The main symptom, blood pressure, capillary blood glucose(PP2hr), Hypercholesterol, Hypertriglyceride were improved. and BMI levels fell. This case shows that Yagwanchunghyul-tang has an effect on Metabolic syndrome like a Hypertension, Diabetes, Hyperlipidermia, Hypertriglyceride.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Bacillus polyfermenticus KJS-2 (B. polyfermenticus KJS-2) and Angelica gigas Nakai extracts (AGNE) on hyperlipidermia. The purity of the major decursin and decursinol angelate (D/DA) in the AGNE were analyzed at 78%. Increased concentrations of AGNE (0.1-20 mg/ml) showed a higher 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase inhibition activity. Endospore-forming B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 ($1{\times}10^9CFU/ml$) exhibited good bile tolerance (0.3 mm) on an agar plate. An animal study was carried out using different groups, including a normal control, positive control (atorvastatin), negative control (triton WR-1339), AGNE group, B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 group, AGNE + B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 group, and Atorvastatin + AGNE + B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 group to determine the effect of hyperlipidemia. There were no significant changes in body weight, kidney weight, or liver weight except for the liver weight of the triton WR-1339-treated group. Groups with AGNE and B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 had increased HDL-cholesterol and decreased total cholesterol and triglycerides. The liver histopathological results also showed that all AGNE and B. polyfermenticus KJS-2-treated groups contained lower fat accumulation in the liver tissues. The findings of this study verified that AGNE and Endospore-forming B. polyfermenticus KJS-2 combination materials have a hyperlipidemic effect.

The purpose of this study was to develop a web-based internet program for nutritional assessment and diet management of patient having hyperlipidemia. Hyperlipidermia were classified by hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. The program consisted of four parts according to their functions and contents. The first part explained the metabolism of lipids and defined the hyperchotesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. The second part is to assess the general health status such as body weight, obesity index, basal metabolic rate and total energy requirement by the input of age, sex, height, weight and degree of activity. This part also provides the Patient with menus lists and 1 day menu suitable to his weight, activity and the status of hyperlipidemia and offers the information for food selection, snacks, convenience foods, dine-out, behavioral modification, cooking methods, food exchange lists, and information on energy and nutrients of foods and drinks, and top 20 foods classified by nutrients. The third part is designed to investigate diet history of patient, that is, to find out his inappropriate dietary habit and give him some suggestions for appropriate dietary behavior. This part also offers on-line counseling and frequently asked Questions. The fourth part is evaluating their energy and nutrients intake by comparing with recommended dietary allowance for Koreans or standardized data for patient with hyperlipidemia. In this part, it is also analyzing energy and nutrients of food consumed by food group and meals, and evaluating the status of nutrient intake. These results are finally displayed as tabular forms and graphical forms on the computer screen.
