Assessment of Serum Lipids Profile among Coffee Consumption People in Khartoum State

Abstract

Back ground: Coffeeis one of the most widely consumed beverages worldwide. Because of its consumption in most countries in the world, it is interesting, from both a public and a scientific perspective, to discuss its potential benefits or adverse aspects in relation to health problems.Acute Coffee consumption result in health benefits may reduce type 2 DM, obesity, liver disease. But chronic Coffee consumption result in cardiovascular diseases. Objective:The present study was conducted to assess the serum TC, HDL,and LDL mean levels in Sudanese coffee drinker and compare it with normal value. Methods: this was a 3-month cross sectional study based on 70 healthy coffee drinkerclassified into 30 men and 40 female. The TC, HDL, and LDL concentration was measured by auto chemistry analyzer using cholesterol oxidase peroxidase method, direct method, and direct method respectively. The data obtained was subjected to analysis by using statistical packaged for social science SPSS and the results showed as mean ± standard deviation(M±SD). Results: the results showed that serum total cholesterol and LDL levels in coffee drinkers were insignificantly different when compared to normal value with p value(0.067,0.715) respectively, while HDL significantly decrease in coffee drinkers when compared to normal value with p value (0.000). Correlation between TC, LDL, and HDL level and duration showed that an increasing in duration will lead to increase in TC, and LDL levels with p value (0.027,0.010 and R0.264, 0.307)respectively, while a decrease in HDL levels with p value 0.033and R 0.355). Conclusion: this study found that there was insignificant different between serum TC, and LDL while HDL significantly decrease in coffee drinkers when compared to normal value. Also the study showed significant positive correlation between TC and LDL while significant negative correlationbetween HDL in coffee drinker and duration.
