Study Summary
This trial will study the effects of strawberry consumption on adults at high risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who are overweight or obese with a BMI of 25.0-34.9, have borderline-high LDL cholesterol (130-159mg/dL), and normal to slightly high blood pressure (up to 129mmHg/80mmHg). It's not for those taking certain supplements, pregnant or breastfeeding women, people with allergies to strawberries, diagnosed chronic diseases like diabetes, anemia or liver/thyroid/kidney conditions, smokers/tobacco users within the last three months, regular alcohol consumers (>1-2 drinks/day), or on chronic disease medications.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of strawberry consumption on heart and metabolic health in at-risk adults. Participants will receive either mixed strawberry powder, active strawberry powder specifically designed for this study's purposes, or a placebo powder without active ingredients. The goal is to see if these powders can improve cardiovascular markers.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves consuming strawberry powders which are food-based products; side effects might be minimal but could include potential allergic reactions in sensitive individuals despite allergy being an exclusion criterion.
