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.

Olive oil
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive 30ml/day of olive oil for two weeks
Butter
PLACEBO COMPARATORParticipants will receive 30g/day of butter also for two weeks.
Interventions
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.
