Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduction of postprandial Oxidized LDL(OX-LDL) levels following 2 weeks of supplementation with tomato extracted lycopene

    Following two weeks of supplementation the evaluation will be done at baseline,before the high fat meal and during 6 hours following the meal.

    Baseline and over 6 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduction of postprandial triglycerides, glucose, insulin and hsCRP levels following 2 weeks of supplementation with tomato extracted lycopene

    Baseline and over 6 hours

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Correlation between the anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation effects and serum lycopene, phytofluene and phytoene levels

    Baseline and over 6 hours

  • Number of adverse events recorded during the supplementation period, lycopene compared to placebo

    2 weeks
