Wheat Bioactives and Immune Function

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Endocrine, Nutritional, Metabolic and Immunity Disorders

In brief

The purpose of this research was to understand the effects of bioactive compounds found in wheat cereal on human immunity. Subjects came in for a baseline blood draw, consumed whole wheat bran cereal daily for 21 days, and returned for a final blood draw. Immune function assays were performed at both sampling times. It was predicted that eating wheat bran would benefit immune function.
