MB Clinical Research is looking for male and female volunteers between the ages of 18 and 79 for an investigational research study involving the daily consumption of 4 servings of a variety of muffins and rolls containing either corn oil or coconut oil over 2, 4 week periods.
What is the Purpose of this Study? The main objective of this trial is to study the effects of corn oil and coconut oil on your cholesterol measurements (lipid profile). Certain components of your lipid profile are the most commonly used markers used to determine a person’s risk of having cardiovascular disease. Researchers will also study the effects of the corn and coconut oils on your blood insulin levels and markers of inflammation.
If you take part in this study, you have an equal chance (like flipping a coin) of getting one of the following during the first treatment period:
• Study Foods made with Corn Oil
• Study Foods made with Coconut Oil
What is my time commitment to the study? You will be asked to visit our clinic on 7 occasions over approximately 3 months. The study visits will last between 30 and 120 minutes.
