The aim of our study was to test the effects on endothelium of a combination of curcumin, resveratrol, plus zinc, magnesium, selenium and Vitamin D in a cohort of pediatric subjects with obesity. Endothelial function was assessed using two methodologies: a post occlusive release hyperemic test (PORH) and a heat provocation test (HPT).

Placebo tablet composition: Saccharose, fructose, aroma, anti-agglomerate agents: fatty acids magnesium salts, silicium dioxide, colorant: riboflavin 5-sodium phosphate; sweetener: stevia glycoside, sucralose, neosperidin DC.
