Official title
Flaxseed Modulates Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Biomarkers in Stable Patients With Cystic Fibrosis and Healthy Controls
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Flaxseed (FS) is a safe and well tolerated supplement with an ability to fight inflammation and oxidative stress - a byproduct of daily stress the human body faces everyday and especially with chronic diseases. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease resulting from a mutation in sodium and chloride transport channels that results in pancreatic insufficiency, chronic sinusitis and chronic lung infections. The investigators hypothesize that chronic inflammation and oxidative stress are a part of the chronic exacerbations that are a part of cystic fibrosis. The investigators believe that flaxseed with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties can help dampen these stressors on the CF lung and potentially result in fewer exacerbations of CF, fewer antibiotics, fewer hospitalizations, and improved well-being.
