Epidemiological Study on Relationship Between Taking Sweet Buckwheat and Human’s Blood-Lipid

Objective To study the relat ionship between taking sw eet buckwheat and human's blood-lipid by use of epidemiology.Methods Blood-lipid of residents who lived in sweet-buckwheat producing areas and residents whodid not was detected by standar dized method from June to Spetember of 1997.Analysis of covariance and standardized rate were used to statistical analysis.Results TC and LDL-C of residents who lived on sweet buckw heat were apparently lower than residents who did not after regulating age.HDL-C showed oposite results.Standardized rate of TC,TG and LDL-C as well as hyperlipemia of residents who lived on sweet buckw heat was much lower than residents who did not.Conclusion Human's blood-lipid and hyperlipemia rate could be lowered by taking sweet buckw heat.
