Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measure Decrease in Oxidative Stress markers.

    the primary purpose of this trial is a preliminary study to examine the relationship to markers of oxidative stress,in response to Protandim, in Metabolic Syndrome.

    every 30 days for 120 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Protein signatures

    every 30 days for 120 days

Study Arms (2)

Protandim

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

one capsule a day for 30 days of protandim given, followed by a wash out period.

Dietary Supplement: Protandim

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

one capsule a day for 30 days will be given followed by a washout period.

Dietary Supplement: Protandim
