Brief summary
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
Detailed description
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
Interventions
Omega 3 FA group 300 mg once daily for 8 weeks
50000 IU VD3/week for 8 weeks and 300 mg of omega- 3 FA once daily for 8 weeks
VD3 50000 IU/ week for 8 weeks
no intervention is given
