Olive oil byproduct may tame Alzheimer's inflammation
NCT ID NCT06245616
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether olive pomace oil, a type of olive oil, can lower brain inflammation in people with early-stage Alzheimer's. Researchers will give 40 Alzheimer's patients and 40 healthy adults meals containing either pomace oil or a different oil, then measure blood markers of inflammation. The goal is to see if compounds in pomace oil can reduce the inflammatory response that may worsen Alzheimer's.
