Summary
This completed trial looked at whether a daily dietary supplement containing oleoylethanolamide (OEA), ginger extract, and lavender essential oil can affect gene expression and health markers in 92 healthy adults aged 18-64 with a BMI of 25-30. Participants took two capsules daily for 12 weeks and provided blood and urine samples at three visits. The study measured changes in gene methylation, HbA1c, and safety labs, aiming to understand the supplement's metabolic and epigenetic impact.
