Summary

The general objective of this project is to examine the impact of Wobenzym PS supplementation on blood markers of inflammation and inflammation gene expression in volunteers with sub-clinical inflammation.

The study will be undertaken according to a double-blind, cross over, randomized, placebo controlled design. The study will involve men and women with subclinical inflammation (n=24). Eligible subjects will have blood CRP \>1 mg/L and \<10 mg/L and will be in good health. The impact of Wobenzym PS on inflammation (vs. placebo) will be assessed by comparing the blood fasting concentrations and whole blood gene expression of anti- and pro-inflammatory proteins before and after the 4-week supplementation (Wobenzym and placebo). The two 4-week supplementation will be separated by a 4-week wash out period.
