Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of supplementing diets of hyperlipidemic men with DHA (docosahexenoic acid) on risk factors for cardiovascular disease. We hypothesize that supplementing diets of hyperlipidemic men with DHA will decrease the plasma concentrations of CRP (C-reactive protein), inflammatory cytokines, and soluble adhesion molecules. We further hypothesize that DHA supplementation will decrease serum triglyceride concentrations and increase HDL concentration.
Interventions
- DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT Olive oil
- DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT Docosahexenoic acid (DHA)
