What this trial studies
This interventional study enrolls generally healthy adults aged 18 and older to take the Perfect Heartio nutritional drink, a blend of traditional Chinese medicine herbal extracts, and return for scheduled follow-up visits. Participants will consume the drink according to the study plan while investigators monitor cardiovascular-related measures and markers of lipid metabolism. The protocol excludes people on anticoagulants, corticosteroids, frequent NSAID users, those taking high-dose vitamin A/E/beta-carotene supplements, pregnant or lactating women, and individuals with serious organ failure or active cancer. The trial is sponsored by The Perfect Series Sdn Bhd in collaboration with UCSI University and is conducted at UCSI University in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults 18 or older who are generally healthy, willing to give consent and attend follow-up visits, and not taking excluded medications or living with serious organ failure.
Not a fit: People who are pregnant or lactating, have renal failure, cirrhosis, active cancer, or take anticoagulants, frequent NSAIDs, corticosteroids, or high-dose vitamin A/E supplements are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the drink could offer a low-cost, herbal option to help improve lipid levels and other heart-health markers.
How similar studies have performed: Some small trials and reviews suggest certain TCM herbs and ginger may favorably affect lipids and cardiovascular risk factors, but robust large randomized evidence is limited.
