 The inclusion of subjects with mildly impaired cardio-metabolic risk profiles enables detection of improvements in health after WGW consumption. The investigators therefore aim to include 50 middle aged and overweight males or postmenopausal females 45-70yrs and BMI between 25-35 kgm2 that have mildly elevated levels of cholesterol cholesterol levels 5 mmolL. In case the inclusion of subjects with mildly elevated levels of total cholesterol is too difficult, normal levels of total cholesterol 5 mmolL can be accepted, but with a minimum total cholesterol level of 4.5 mmolL.
