First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tested whether eating foods with extra fiber, polyphenols, omega-3, and slow-digesting starch for 9 weeks could reduce low-grade inflammation in 62 adults with abdominal obesity and cardiometabolic risk. Participants ate either fortified or standard foods, and researchers measured inflammation markers in the blood before and after a high-carb, high-fat test meal. The goal was to see if these functional foods could help control inflammation linked to heart disease and diabetes.
