Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
\- list item one, Peppers We propose to evaluate bio absorption of pepper carotenoids in a red bell-pepper or non-pungent green jalapeno pepper. The pepper will be provided in a cooked dish. The specific aims of this study are: 1) to determine blood response kinetics of lutein following multiple doses of non-pungent green jalapeno pepper with meals. 2) to determine blood response kinetics of zeaxanthin/capsanthin following multiple doses of red bell pepper with meals. We will feed 16 healthy man and women (50 - 65 y, females were at least one year post menopause), each cooked green jalapeno pepper or red pepper for 4 days and donate blood samples up to 21 days to determine blood response kinetics of xanthophylls following multiple doses of pepper dishes.
