Protocol summary

Summary
This study is a double-blind clinical trial. Seventy two patients who are in the chronic phase of ischemic stroke (6 month-2 years), 50- 75 years old, Body mass index between 25- 35 will be selected. At first the disease in patients is diagnosed by a neurologist and if there are no exclusion criteria include Body mass index more than 35, Body mass index under 25, liver disease, kidney disease, hypo or hyper thyroid, Hemorrhagic stroke, Hormone therapy (HRT), intake of warfarin, they have the permission to participate in this study. Patients will be divided randomly into two groups. Thirty six patients in the intervention group will receive 2 capsules of 500 mg quercetin twice daily for two months. Thirty six patients in the control group will receive 2 capsules placebo twice daily for two months. We need blood samples of these patients at the beginning and the end of the study for comparison and evaluation of serum levels of Asymmetric Dimethylarginine, fasting blood sugar and lipid profile. Moreover we measure weight, height and blood pressure`s patients at the beginning and the end of study.Besides we have 24 hour recall questionnaires in order to check dietary intake of macronutrients and micronutrients in the first 3 days and last 3 days of supplementation.
