Abstract
Perilla fruit oil (PFO) is rich in α-linolenic acid and phytochemicals that are beneficial for health. We aimed at preparation of PFO-supplemented soybean milk (PFO-SM) and assessment for health outcomes of PFO-SM drink in humans. PFO-SM was prepared by adding PFO in SM (1% v/v) along with other ingredients, pasteurized and determined nutritional facts using our established protocol. Healthy subjects were randomly divided into three groups (n = 48 each); deionized water (DI), SM and PFO-SM, and consumed the products after breakfast and dinner every day for 30 d. Health indices were recorded and blood were collected on days 0 and 30 for measuring levels of hematological, biochemical and oxidative stress parameters. Consumptions of PFO-SM and SM did not influence values of body weight, body mass index, blood pressure and complete blood counts.
