The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the outcome of plant-based omega-3 intervention on lipid profile and blood pressure after 12 weeks and to study the molecular markers associated with the incidence of CVD risk. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Participants will be subjected to two groups:
Researcher will compare between treatment and control group to see the effect of plant based omega-3 on lipid profile and blood pressure after 12 weeks
This study is a single-blinded, randomised controlled, parallel clinical trial with the aim to compare the effect of plant-based omega-3 versus standard dietary therapy among individuals with CVD risk for 12 weeks. The randomisation will be done by an independent researcher.
Following, the sample size for this study is 72 individuals with CVD risk, calculated based from two previous studies that investigated the effect of plant based omega 3 intake on cardiometabolic risk individuals and dairy beverages intake among type 2 diabetes mellitus patient.
Besides that, demographic information, medical history, medication history, social history, family history and nutritional information will be gathered using the Case Report Form (CRF) along with 3 days diet record and International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) for physical activities assessment. Furthermore, anthropometric data, pain assessment, product sensory evaluation and compliance assessment will also be assessed using the same CRF form.
Correspondingly, 10-hour fasting blood sample (20ml) will be collected from a total of 72 subjects (treatment group, n=36 and control group, n= 36, respectively) for the blood test profiles and genotyping microarray analysis. Subjects need to avoid any alcohol intake, unusual amounts of physical activity and unusual amounts of food intake within 24-hour of blood taking. All the biochemical analyses will be done and entirely sponsored by Beacon Precision Diagnostics Sdn. Bhd. The study will be conducted in compliance with ethical principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki and Malaysian Good Clinical Practice Guideline.
Also, subjects shall be informed of the study during their usual clinic visits. They will be requested to contact investigators if they are interested. An appointment will be made where the subject information sheet will be provided and explained to them. If they are willing to participate, the consent forms will be signed and dated. If they need to, they are allowed to take the information sheet home to consult with their family members and another day for getting consent arranged. This study is an independent study, subjects can choose to withdraw at any time. Lastly, the investigators declare they have no conflict of interest.
