Published in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research
Abstract
Randomized controlled trial comparing camelina sativa oil, fatty fish and lean fish in impaired glucose metabolism.
Key Findings
Camelina sativa oil reduced total and LDL cholesterol and the LDL-to-HDL ratio, whereas fatty fish and lean fish did not, in adults with impaired glucose metabolism.
Conclusions
Camelina oil improves the lipid profile independently of glucose metabolism effects.
Limitations
Moderate sample, 12-week duration, open dietary intervention.
Supplements Studied
Camelina sativa oil reduced total and LDL cholesterol and the LDL-to-HDL ratio, whereas fatty fish and lean fish did not, in adults with impaired glucose metabolism.
Outcomes Measured
Camelina sativa oil reduced total and LDL cholesterol and the LDL-to-HDL ratio, whereas fatty fish and lean fish did not, in adults with impaired glucose metabolism.
