Pecan oil shows promise in fighting inflammation in overweight adults
NCT ID NCT07497555
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether taking a daily dose of cold-pressed pecan nut oil for 8 weeks can lower inflammation in adults who are overweight. Researchers will measure markers like C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 in the blood. Participants in the experimental group will consume 30 grams of pecan nut oil each day on an empty stomach, while a control group will not take any supplement. Both groups will keep their usual diet and exercise habits.
