The purpose of this paper - to investigate the relationship of low levels of bilirubin (BR) with lipid profile and blood antioxidant status in men with coronary heart disease. Our research has shown that low levels of bilirubin is associated with atherogenic changes in lipid profile and decrease its antioxidant activity. In clinical practice, bilirubin can be used as an indicator of antioxidant status of the organism.
