Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of using red yeast rice, phytosterol esters and lycopene in combination for 12 weeks on improving the glycolipid metabolism of Guangzhou individuals with dyslipidemia. Our hypothesis is that when compared with placebo, red yeast rice, phytosterol esters and lycopene together as supplements would lead to greater improvements in lipid metabolism (including lipid profiles and parameters ) in participants after 12 weeks.
