 A large trial testing EVOO and nuts in a U.S. population is needed to determine if supplementing with EVOO and nuts can reduce risk of cardiovascular events and mortality in adults living in the U.S. Prior to launching a large trial, it is important to assess whether adults 55 and older would be interested in participating in a supplementation trial such as PREDIMED. Additionally, it is important to assess if they are willing to consume the nuts and EVOO and attend study related-data collection visits.
