Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The main aim of this study is to examine the effect of olive oil consumption on several cardiovascular risk markers between Caucasians and Asian ethnicity. The primary assessments: endothelial function's biomarkers: cell and vascular adhesion molecules (ICAMs and VCAMs) and nitric oxide (NO). The secondary assessments: Lipid profile.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Olive oil

Participants will receive 30ml/day of olive oil for two weeks

Dietary Supplement: Olive oil
Participants will be randomly allocated to receive daily dose of 30ml of olive oil (OO) as intervention group or a matching control (butter 30g) for 2 weeks each (i.e. two weeks olive oil and two weeks butter), separated by a washout period of 2 weeks between treatments.

Dietary Supplement: Butter
Participants will be randomly allocated to receive daily dose of 30ml of olive oil (OO) as intervention group or a matching control (butter 30g) for 2 weeks each (i.e. two weeks olive oil and two weeks butter), separated by a washout period of 2 weeks between treatments.

Placebo Comparator: Butter

Participants will receive 30g/day of butter also for two weeks.

Dietary Supplement: Olive oil
Participants will be randomly allocated to receive daily dose of 30ml of olive oil (OO) as intervention group or a matching control (butter 30g) for 2 weeks each (i.e. two weeks olive oil and two weeks butter), separated by a washout period of 2 weeks between treatments.

Dietary Supplement: Butter
Participants will be randomly allocated to receive daily dose of 30ml of olive oil (OO) as intervention group or a matching control (butter 30g) for 2 weeks each (i.e. two weeks olive oil and two weeks butter), separated by a washout period of 2 weeks between treatments.
