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.
