NCT ID: NCT02661698 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 39 Completion: 2016-10
Conditions
Lipid Absorption and Metabolism
Interventions
Omega-3 oil: DHA enriched, Placebo, Omega-3 oil: EPA enriched
Summary
This study will evaluate the absorption of two different dietary supplements containing the omega 3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid over 24 hours via venous blood plasma following a single dose taken at bed time. In addition, the circadian rhythm of fatty acid metabolism will also be assessed following the placebo intervention.
Primary Outcome
The 24 hour Area Under the Curve (AUC) of plasma concentrations of DHA and EPA
