Official title: Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acids Enriched Chicken Eggs Consumption on Microvascular Reactivity and Lipid Profile in Young Healthy Subjects

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Previous studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acid pills intake have beneficial effect on vascular health in overweight and/or hypertensive patients.

However, there is a lack of studies showing the effect of everyday consumption of omega-3 fatty acids enriched food (not pills) on lipid profile and microvascular reactivity in healthy population.

This study aimed to determine the effect of omega-3 enriched chicken eggs consumption on microvascular reactivity and lipid profile in young healthy subjects.
