Detailed Description

-Herbal Polyphenols/Antioxidants: Role in Cardiovascular Disease Prevention: Phenolic compounds are dietary antioxidants found in plants that are shown to inhibit LDL oxidation, inhibit platelet aggregation and adhesion, decrease total and LDL cholesterol, and induce endothelium-dependent vaso-relaxation. \[Lapointe, Vita, and Mendes\]. Epidemiologic studies suggest that higher polyphenol intake from fruits and vegetables is associated with decreased risk for cardiovascular disease. Among the numerous plausible mechanisms by which polyphenols may offer cardiovascular protection, improvement of the endothelial function and inhibition of angiogenesis and cell migration and proliferation in blood vessels have been the focuses of recent studies. Antioxidants in polyphenols, in addition to protecting LDL cholesterol against oxidation, may act at a vascular cell level by limiting cellular production of reactive oxygen species, and, thus, cell-mediated LDL oxidation. In traditional Indian medicine, the gooseberry (Phyllanthus emblica) has been used for thousands of years as an effective source of polyphenols and antioxidants. "P. emblica is considered beneficial against various diseases namely cancer, diabetes, liver treatment, and various other diseases."\[Hiraganahalli\]. Capros®, from Natreon, Inc., is a cascading antioxidant ingredient derived from Phyllanthus emblica. It has been used in cosmetics and food-and-beverage formulations in many countries, and, based on extensive scientific research, also shows particular promise as a dietary supplement.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Capros dietary supplement
Subjects will take Capros supplement (1 capsule) twice a day for 12 weeks.The subjects then will have blood drawn seven times throughout the course of the study.
Capros dietary supplement
Study participants will have 2 to 3 baseline blood draws, 3 blood draws while taking Capros supplements and 2 wash out blood draws after finishing 12 weeks of Capros supplementation. Participants will attend 7 to 8 study visits (depending on number of baseline visits needed) and at each visit participants will have their blood drawn as well as height, weight, blood pressure, and pulse measured.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
* BMI 25-35
Exclusion Criteria
* Smokers
* Individuals who are deemed unable to understand the procedures, risks and benefits of the study, i.e. Informed consent will be excluded
* Females who are pregnant as well as individuals who are therapeutically immuno-compromised will also be excluded in order to minimize the risk to such individuals (and fetus) and to decrease statistical variability and to minimize potential of confounders.
* Candidates for inclusion into the study will not include individuals as defined in 45 CFR 46 Subparts B, C and D, nor from any other population which may be considered vulnerable. Pregnant women are excluded to minimize the risk to such individuals (and fetus) and to decrease statistical variability and to minimize potential of confounders.
