Abstract

This study undertakes a thorough examination of the experimental data for extra virgin olive oil and soybean oil. These data are acquired from a number of parallel, crossover, and randomized controlled experiments. We're looking into how these two types of oils affect blood glucose and lipid profiles. We hope to present a clear picture of how these oils might affect the body's metabolic processes by carefully examining and statistically analyzing the data. The study's findings are significant because they can provide useful information for making evidence-based dietary decisions. This, in turn, is critical for successful metabolic health management. Understanding the potential impacts of these oils allows people to choose the types of oils that are most beneficial to their health, lowering the chance of developing numerous health conditions associated with abnormal blood glucose and lipid levels.

1. Introduction

The choice of dietary oil has a big influence on people's health and well-being in the realm of nutrition. The public uses soybean oil and extra-virgin olive oil more than any other of the many oils on the market. In recent years, their impacts on cholesterol and blood glucose levels have emerged as a major research topic. Diabetes and cardiovascular disorders are among the many health hazards that are strongly associated with abnormal blood glucose and lipid profiles. In addition to being common, many illnesses significantly lower people's quality of life. Therefore, it is extremely important to understand the effects of these oils on the body. This understanding can help in formulating appropriate dietary recommendations and preventive measures. It also enables us to further explore how different dietary components interact with the body's physiological systems, either promoting or harming health.

2. Method

Inclusion criteria: peer-reviewed articles published in English within the past decade. The research focuses on the relationship between olive oil consumption and CHD risk or related cardiovascular outcomes. Clinical trials or observational studies with a sample size of at least 10 participants. The study provides data on the impact of olive oil intake and its types or other related biomarkers. We search the following key terms which closely related to our research topic on Google scholar, ProQuest, Science Direct, Microsoft Academic. "Olive oil", "coronary heart disease", "CVD prevention", "lipid profile", "antioxidant effects", "Mediterranean diet", "clinical trials", "epidemiological studies".

3. Result

3.1. Extra virgin olive oil

Table 1 contains experimental data from 15 parallel or crossover experiments on extra virgin olive oil. Of these, 13 research reports included changes in blood lipids [1-13] and 11 research reports included changes in blood glucose [1,4-7,10-15]. For blood glucose, 8 research reports showed a significant reduction in blood glucose [5-8,11-14], of which 2 were for fasting blood glucose [5,15]. For blood lipids, 9 trials reported a significant decrease in total cholesterol [1-3,7,8,10-13], 5 trials reported a significant reduction in triglycerides[2,6,7,10,11], 6 trials reported a significant increase in HDL [7,8-10,12,13], and 9 trials reported a significant decrease in LDL [2,3,6-8,10-13].

3.2. Soybean oil

Table 2 contains experimental data from 15 parallel,Randomized controlled or crossover experiments on extra virgin olive oil. Of these,Blood Lipids:

Twelve randomized controlled trials (RCTs) studied the effects of soybean oil on blood lipids. Six studies reported significant reductions in total cholesterol [16-21], eleven found significant reductions in LDL [16,17,22-29]. Two studies showed no significant changes in HDL levels [16,17], while two observed significant reductions in triglyceride levels [18, 28]. For blood Glucose,Six RCTs examined the effects of soybean oil on blood glucose. Three studies found significant reductions in fasting blood glucose [20,29,30]. One study reported no significant changes in fasting blood glucose [16].

4. Discussion

Despite many studies had been done to examine the two oils separately, there is a paucity of studies comparing their effects to show their differences. From the conceptual point of view, this study will fill the gap in the extra virgin oil and soybean oil’s different effects. Moreover, our study will contribute to our understanding of the use of more personalized strategies. The public widely recognizes the various advantages of olive oil, while the soybean oil is often thought to be harmful for the blood vessels and causes many bad influences such as increase in blood lipid and blood glucose. However, after summarize the latest 30 studies on two oils, we find that actually they both have the potentials to be beneficial for people’s blood lipid and blood glucose as long as being properly used, although their degrees of influence vary. Here are our major findings: 1. Blood lipid aspect: They didn’t have much differences in decreasing blood lipid levels (triglycerides, cholesterol), while extra virgin olive oil performs better in increasing the HDL which helps reverse cholesterol transport. Six of extra olive oil studies reported a significant increase in HDL, and 9 trials reported a significant decrease in LDL. Two of soybean oil studies showed no significant changes in HDL levels. And soybean oil is found decreasing the LDL which may causes atherosclerosis more efficiently. 2. Blood glucose aspect: extra virgin olive oil showed more significant effects than soybean oil, this suggests that olive oil may be more beneficial to blood sugar control and prevention of complications in diabetes patients. In general, olive oil and soybean oil have positive effects on blood lipids, but olive oil may be more suitable for patients with diabetes because it can improve blood sugar control and reduce cholesterol. However, all edible oils should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake of any type of fat can lead to excess energy, thereby affecting blood sugar and lipid levels. Olive oil consumption is associated with lower CVD and stroke risk. The maximum benefit may be between consuming 20 to 30 grams per day. The association with virgin olive oil may be stronger and may start to work from the early stages of the disease. Monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) and polyphenols in olive oil may have anti-hypertensive, anti-inflammatory, and anti-thrombotic effects. The research results support the recommendation to increase olive oil consumption, especially virgin olive oil, to prevent cardiovascular disease (Carolina et. Al 2021)[17]. David J. Baer et. al found that high oleic peanut oil, due to reducing the intake of linoleic acid and linolenic acid, had a lower degree of improvement in blood lipids than ordinary peanut oil, and there was no statistically significant difference in reducing inflammatory factors.

Kay-Tee Khaw et al.[31] chose people aged 50 to 75 from Cambridge for the experiment, and the experimenters were not proficient in medical especially in cardiovascular health and have not taken any antihypertensive medication. The experiment will require them to consume fat and protein, and the experimenter needs to explain the experimental situation and cannot force them to participate in the experiment. After participating in the experiment, the subjects must not have gallbladder or gastrointestinal related diseases. The experiment lasted from May 2017 to June 2017.

Participants were required to participate in a 4-week dietary plan, during which they were required to consume 50 milliliters of extra virgin coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, and pre packaged 20 grams and 30 grams of butter per day. In the data processing stage, the experimenters adopted the form of asking participants to fill out an information form, which included suggestions for selecting oils and fats and how to consume them. Throughout the evaluation phase, the experimenter had two opportunities to fill out the survey questionnaire. The first time was before the experiment, participants were asked to write information about their physical activities and daily life. The second time is after the experiment, participants need to write down their feelings about consuming oil throughout the entire experiment.

Recent studies have shown that the benefits of consuming unsaturated fatty acids outweigh those of saturated fatty acids. The researchers used Brazilian chestnut trees, which contain a large amount of oil and rich nutritional value, with an unsaturated fatty acid content of up to 75%. Comparing it with soybean oil aims to discover the effects of the two oils on blood pressure, oxidation parameters, and other aspects.

The researchers’ experimental methods is to select males and females aged to 36 to 65 from the nutrition clinic of the Joao de Barros Barreto University Hospital, who have MS diseases within the NCEP-ATP prescribed range. The subjects were informed of the experimental procedure in advance and given written consent.

Initially, 102 volunteers were enrolled, with 41 remaining after screening. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted with 41 participants suffering from MS. Of these, 20 consumed 300 milliliters of Brazil nut oil daily, while 21 consumed 300 milliliters of soybean oil for 30 days. Following the trial, further observations and experiments were conducted. Lifestyle assessments were carried out through interviews and clinical consultations.

The parameters assessed included body composition, blood pressure, biochemical markers, and oxidative markers. Measurements of body composition and blood pressure were taken in the morning. BMI was calculated using a formula that involves both weight and height. For weight, participants were asked to stand on a scale barefoot and with minimal clothing, while height was measured with a portable stadiometer. Biochemical indicators mainly focus on measuring blood glucose levels and total cholesterol content. Participants were required to refrain from consuming food for 12 hours prior to blood sampling.

This study utilizes two key methods to evaluate important markers of oxidative stress - antioxidant capacity and lipid peroxidation reaction. The antioxidant capacity (TAC) is measured using the Troloxy Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (TEAC) assay. Record the absorbance changes within 5 minutes at a wavelength of 734 nanometers, whether they increase or decrease, and express the results in μ M/mL. Lipid peroxidation is quantified by the thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) method to determine the level of malondialdehyde (MDA). Specifically, MDA is reacted with thiobarbituric acid (TBA) at high temperature (94 ° C) to form a pink complex, which is measured at a wavelength of 535 nanometers.
