Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Change in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol concentration (%) [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Mean relative change in serum LDL cholesterol concentration during the intervention

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. LDL cholesterol concentration [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Mean absolute change in serum LDL cholesterol concentration during the intervention between test and control group

  2. total cholesterol concentration [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Changes in serum total cholesterol concentration during the intervention

  3. High density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentration [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Changes in serum HDL cholesterol concentration during the intervention

  4. non-HDL cholesterol concentration [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Changes in serum non-HDL cholesterol concentration during the intervention

  5. Total triglyceride concentration [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Changes in serum triglycerides concentrations

  6. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) blood biomarkers [0 vs 3 weeks]

    Changes in specific NMR blood biomarkers
