Objective: To investigate the effects of Pingzhi Jianxin tea(平脂健心茶) on treating hyperl ipaemia and its mechanisms.Methods:One hundred and twenty cases with hyperlipaemia were randomly divided into trea tme nt group and control group, the treatment group was treated with Pingzhi Jianxin tea and the control group was t reated with gingko nut leaf tablet.The curative effects between two groups were compared.Meanwhile, experimental study on animal model of hyperlipaemia was conducted.Results:The total effective rates in depressing blood lipids and viscosity in treatment group was 92.5% and in control group was 72.5%.The total effective rates in electrocardiogram improvements were 65.5% and 56.3% respectively.The difference between two groups was significant(P<0.01 and P<0.05)． In experimental study the blood lipid of hyperlipaemia rats was reduced after taking Pingzhi Jianxin tea and this action in treatment group was superior to that in control group (P<0.01). Conclusions:The curative effects of Pingzhi Jianxin tea on treating hyperlipaemia and improving myocardial ischemia are confirmed and if used for a long time there is not harmful effect.
