The extracts of avocado and soybean oils have been shown to slow cell inflammation in test tubes. Will taking avocado and soybean unsaponifiables (called ASU) help relieve pain for subjects with joint stiffness due to arthritis? In an experiment, 345 men and women were randomly assigned to receive either 300 milligrams of ASU daily for three years or a placebo daily for three years.
Could blinding be used in this experiment? If so, how? If not, why not?
