The DM and TW received 1.5-liter bottle of mineral water of Damavand spring and Tehran piped water bottled, respectively. The participants' blood pressure, serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLc), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLc) were measured at the beginning and end of the study. Total hardness of water was measured by titration with EDTA.
Results
The results showed that the mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures decreased in both groups at the end of the study compared to the baseline (P < 0.05), but the difference was not significant. Serum TC and LDLc significantly in the case group at the end of week 8 compared to the baseline (P < 0.05) and this reduction was significant (P < 0.05). Moreover, no significant differences were observed between the two groups with regard to the mean changes of TG and HDLc (P > 0.05).
