Oleocanthal Rich Olive Oil Acute Effects on Hyperglycemia and Platelet Activation in T2DM

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Platelet Dysfunction; Lipidemia; Oxidative Stress; Diabetes Mellitus, Adult-Onset; Postprandial Hyperglycemia; Inflammation

• Registration Number: NCT04419948
• Lead Sponsor: Harokopio University

Brief Summary

This is a pilot acute dietary intervention study with a randomized cross-over design aiming to investigate whether acute supplementation of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) rich in oleocanthal could attenuate postprandial hyperglycemia and activation of platelets in T2DM patients. For this reason, non-insulin dependent diabetic patients (10-15) will be randomly assigned to consume in five different days white bread (50 g CHO) with butter, butter with ibuprofen, refined olive oil and olive oil with oleocanthal (250 mg/Kg 500 mg/Kg). Blood samples will be collected pre- and post-intervention up to 4 hours in order to determine platelet aggregation, postprnadial glycemia, lipemia, inflammation and oxidative stress.

Taking into account the strong anti-inflammatory and anti-platelet properties of oleocanthal, this study will assess whether oleocanthal-rich olive oils could exert similar effects under real in vivo conditions in T2DM patients. It will also assess whether these effects are achieved through improvement of postprandial glycemia and lipemia.
