NCT02358967

Brief Summary

Patients undergoing chronic hemodialysis are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, attributed in part to increased oxidative stress, inflammation and dyslipidemia. Intervention with a naturally occurring dietary supplement may improve certain biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress and improve the lipid profile.
