Along with the increasing prevalence of obesity and diabetes, cardiovascular disease remains as one of the leading causes of death worldwide including Singapore.

Lam Soon is collaborating with the Research team from Newcastle University (School of Agriculture, Food and Rural Development) on a study to find out if a proposed dietary plan using Naturel Extra Virgin Olive Oil as the principal source of fat, can reduce the risks of cardiovascular diseases.

The findings gained from this study will provide more information on the effects of dietary changes on the risk of heart diseases and help create a cardio-protective diet suitable for Singaporeans.

Lam Soon is sponsoring the Naturel Extra Virgin Olive Oil for this study to about 30-40 participants over a period of 12 weeks.
