The effect of synbiotic supplementation on atherogenic indices, hs-CRP, and malondialdehyde, as major CVD-related parameters, in women with gestational diabetes mellitus: a secondary data-analysis of a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study.

Previous evidence suggests that the presence of other nutrients such as calcium, sphingolipids, and protein in dairy products enriched with probiotics can have positive effects on CVD [ 33 ], suggesting that the efficacy of dairy products enriched with probiotics on atherogenic indices may not be significant enough to introduce synbiotics or probiotics as CVD-preventive agents, the findings of our study on synbiotic supplements’ single favorable effect on the atherogenic index would be more noteworthy.
