Bioactivity of Olive Oils Enriched With Their Own Phenolic Compounds (VOHF1)

Hypothesis: A functional olive oil tailored to provide the best relationship between phenolic compounds (amount and type) phenolic bioavailability and bioactivity (antioxidant and anti-endothelial dysfunction) will be a useful tool for increasing not only circulating HDL cholesterol concentration, but also the functionality (antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and reverse cholesterol transport capacity) of human HDL in vivo.
