Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: RECRUITING
Condition: Change in Plasma Urolithins and Vitamin E
Study Type: INTERVENTIONAL
Official Title: Postprandial Urolithin Response to a Pecan-Enriched Meal
Brief Summary:
Pecan-enriched diets have been linked to improved cardiovascular health, including postprandial blood lipids and microvascular reactivity in older adults.This has led to recommendations to increase regular pecan consumption, however there is no consistent plasma measure of pecan intake.Traditionally, plasma tocopherols have been used, although they reach peak concentrations in plasma around 6-8 hours post pecan consumption, leading to high variability at 24 hours.Therefore, a more reliable biomarker of pecan…
