Canola Oil Multi-Centre Intervention Trial II

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cardiovascular Disease, Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome

In brief

The objectives of the study are to examine the health benefits of dietary canola oils on body composition, specifically on android fat, and weight management. COMIT II will also include analysis of FAEs to elucidate the mechanisms by which canola oil may be modifying body composition. Measurement of endothelial function, inflammatory, adiposity, and insulin sensitivity biomarkers will be done to determine the positive health impact of the changes in body composition achieved through canola oil consumption.
