Plasma Lipids	NC	WD	WD + Low-ArCC	WD + High-ArCC	WD + Statin
TC (mg/dL)	361.8 ± 6.1	527.5 ± 9.7 #	510.5 ± 6.9	466.6 ± 9.7 *	395.9 ± 5.7 *
LDL + VLDL (mg/dL)	316.9 ± 9.3	490.1 ± 5.1 #	477.7 ± 5.4 *	438.6 ± 8.9 *	364.7 ± 8.3 *

NC; normal chow, WD; western type diet, TC; total cholesterol, LDL + VLDL; low-density lipoprotein and very low-density lipoprotein. All values represent mean ± SEM, n = 8 animals per group. ^# p < 0.05 versus NC, * p < 0.05 versus WD.
