Brief Summary

The study aimed to determine the thrombotic effects of YSS compared with salmon among healthy overweight subjects. It hypothesized that YSS may result significant, favorable thrombotic effects and the effects may be similar with salmon.

Detailed Description

The project was a randomized, two-period, crossover trial with 8-week treatment periods and 8-week washout period. A total of 50 healthy overweight adults were recruited among staff and students in UPM. All the subjects were randomized into two groups. Each group was served with either cooked YSS (\~265 g/ day) or salmon (\~246 g/day) thrice per week. Blood and urine samples were collected for laboratory assessment.
