This randomized double blind placebo controlled clinical study was conducted at the Tehran Heart Center Hospital, Iran, between December 2011 – Feb 2013.

CAD is one of the most common types of heart disease and is the leading causes of death in the United States. In this eight week study, 33 subjects with coronary artery disease were recruited. The subjects were administered 4 capsules of 500mg of Curcumin C3 Complex® each per day or matching placebo for two months in addition to conventional therapies. Blood samples were withdrawn at baseline and at the end of the study. The results revealed that Curcumin supplementation significantly reduced the serum levels of LDL and triglycerides compared to the baseline. This study also showed a significant decrease in the VLDL values in the Curcumin group.

The authors of study concluded that Curcumin seems to be a potential candidate for decreasing cholesterol and triglycerides levels.
