Male white rabbits were fed a high cholesteroldiet supplemented with red ginseng (RG) or red ginsengplus nattokinase (RGNK). RG and RGNK significantlyreduced increased serum triglycerides levels and aorticplaque area in a hypercholesterol diet fed rabbits. Moreover,only RGNK reduced hepatic cholesterol and cholesterylester transfer protein activity levels. Therefore, the presentstudy suggests RGNK might be a potential therapeuticapproach for atherogenesis.
