Different Oils For Frying and Endothelial Function

Comparative Effect Of Different Oils For Frying On The Endothelial Function, The Oxidative Stress And The Postprandial Inflammatory Response

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of the consumption of different oils (olive oil, sunflower oil, sunflower plus dimethyl-polysiloxane, sunflower plus phenols) previously submitted to heating in postprandial endothelial function, inflammation and oxidative stress in healthy young men.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

To determine whether the consumption by healthy persons of an oil exposed to high temperatures, designed to have a composition of healthy fats (predominantly monounsaturated fats and with less than 10% palmitic acid) and to contain an abundance of antioxidants typically found in olive oil (phenolic compounds), will improve the vasodilatory response that depends on the endothelium, and buffer the inflammatory and postprandial oxidative response that is produced by the oils that are being used ever more frequently for frying purposes (sunflower oil and oil to which butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) has been added), using virgin olive oil exposed to the same heating regime as a reference oil.

Experimental: 1
All the volunteer subjects will be administered four breakfast meals that have been prepared with four different types of oil, each of which will have been subjected to a standardised frying. The meals will be administered according to a cross-randomized Latin squares design

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Endothelium-dependent postprandial vasodilatation measured by laser-doppler after the consumption of 4 different oils: -Virgin Olive Oil -Sunflower Oil -Sunflower High Oleic plus phenols -Sunflower High Oleic plus dimethylpolysiloxane
Time Frame: 0, 2, 4 hours after the meals
0, 2, 4 hours after the meals

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Assessment of pro-oxidative state, as evaluated via the determination of F2 isoprostane, nitrates and nitrites, total plasma antioxidative capacity, lipoperoxides and oxidised proteins.
Time Frame: 0 and 4 hours after the meal
0 and 4 hours after the meal
Assessment of proinflammatory state in both soluble plasma markers (IL-6, TNF-alpha, MCP-1, VCAM-1, ICAM-1) and the postprandial activation (RNAm) of IL-6, TNF-alpha, Rel-A, I-kappaB-alpha, MIF, MMP-9 y MCP-1 genes.
Time Frame: 0 and 4 hours after the meal
0 and 4 hours after the meal
Assessment of interrelationship of postprandial lipaemic response and the response of the inflammatory markers and of the oxidative metabolism with each of the oils employed in the study.
Time Frame: 0, 4 hours after the meal
0, 4 hours after the meal
