The Combined Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acid and Vitamin D3 on Lipid Profile Levels and Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein

Assessing the Combined Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acid and Vitamin D3 on Lipid Profile Levels and Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein: a Randomized Controlled Trial in Males and Females With Vitamin D Deficiency

The combined effect of omega-3 fatty acid and vitamin D3 on lipid profile levels and oxidized low density lipoprotein: a randomized controlled trial in males and females with vitamin D deficiency

Nothing is published in the literature about the combined effect of vitamin D3 (VD3) and omega-3 fatty acids (omega-3FA) on on lipid profile levels and oxidized low density lipoprotein

This study will be conducted to investigate effect of VD3 and omega-3FA alone and with each other on lipid profile levels and oxidized low density lipoprotein in Jordanian people with vitamin D deficiency.

This randomized, controlled clinical trial will be designed to test effects of 50,000 IU VD3 weekly and 300 mg omega-3FA daily for eight weeks, separately and with each other, on on lipid profile levels and oxidized low density lipoprotein

Inclusion Criteria:

• Jordanian people aged 25-55 medical diagnosis of vitamin D deficiency ( VD <25 ng/ ml)

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subjects with previously diagnosed with any chronic disease (cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, cancer, kidney disease, endocrine disorder, thalassemia) or has a documented history of allergic reactions to n-3FA supplementations
