Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether dietary inducers of glyoxalase 1 are effective in improving metabolic and vascular health.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of the study is to evaluate dietary inducers of glyoxalase 1 for effects on metabolic and vascular health in overweight volunteers at risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The research objectives are:

(i) To evaluate dietary inducers of glyoxalase 1 for effects on markers of glucose metabolism during an oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT), (ii) To evaluate dietary inducers of glyoxalase 1 for effects on vascular function on three levels, using finger fold capillary density by capillaroscopy (FFCD), arterial stiffness by aortal pulse wave velocity (aPWV) and flow mediated dilatation (FMD); and effects on metabolic and pro-inflammatory markers in circulating blood and urine.
