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.
