NCT04867629

Brief Summary

This study will test the impact of vegetable oils with contrasting fatty acids composition on biomarkers of health (cardiovascular, kidney diseases and diabetes) after twelve weeks supplementation. We will use sunflower oil (high in PUFAs), rapeseed oil (high in MUFAs, locally produced) and a non-intervention control. We have developed a sensitive and selective urinary proteomic biomarker of cardiovascular disease which we will use in a double-blinded randomised study.
