简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine the health benefits of cranberry extract in people who are at risk for diabetes and heart problems.
详细描述
This study will be a double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, pilot study in which subjects with pre-diabetes will be randomized to receive either placebo or Cranberry extract for a total of 8 weeks of treatment. Each subject will continue on the same dosage of cranberry extract or matching placebo for the entire duration of treatment. Comparisons for insulin sensitivity, endothelial function, and markers of inflmmation and oxidative stress will be made between the 2 groups pre and post intervention.
