of hypertension and also hypercholesterolemia subjects. This study used a
Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) design with 30 males and females subjects,
who were divided into three treatment groups-tempe drink of A formulated from
local sprouted soybean (TDA), tempe drink of B formulated from imported soybean
(TDB), and control. The inclusion criterias were adults aged 25-55 years, not
being menopause and pregnant, total cholesterol levels ≥200 mg/dl, systolic
blood pressure level 121-139 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure level 81-89 mmHg
and willing to partcipate in research by signing an informed consent. The tempe
drink was given three glasses a day for four weeks continuously, contained at
