- Stable body weight in the last 3 months prior to V1 (\<3 kg self-reported change)
- If allowed concomitant medications are taken this must have been stable at least during the last month prior to V1
- Women of childbearing potential:
- Negative pregnancy testing (beta HCG-test in urine) at V1

- Untreated or non-stabilized thyroid disorder
- History and/or presence of clinically significant cardiovascular disease as per investigator's judgement:
- Known congenital heart defects
- Myocardial infarction, heart failure, angina pectoris, life-threatening arrhythmia or stroke within the last 6 months prior to V1
- Existing thrombosis or disposition to thrombosis
- Any other known significant or serious condition / disease that renders subjects ineligible, e.g.:

- Bleeding disorder and/or need for anticoagulants
- Current psychiatric care and/or use of neuroleptics
- Bariatric surgery in the last 12 months prior to V1
- Any known metabolic disease, gastrointestinal disorder or other clinically significant disease/disorder which in the investigator's opinion could interfere with the results of the study or the safety of the subject
- Known arm lymphedema (e.g. due to mastectomy)
- Other deviation of laboratory parameter(s) at V1 that is:
- clinically significant or
- 2x ULN (upper limit of normal), unless the deviation is justified by a previously known not clinically relevant condition, e.g. Gilbert's syndrome)
- Dietary habits that may interfere with the study objectives:
- Eating disorder
- Subjects with dietary restriction that may affect the study outcome
- Participation in a weight loss program
- Use of following medication/supplementation within the last 4 weeks prior to V1 and during the study, according to investigator's jugdement:
- Drugs or supplements that can influence SBP or DBP (e.g. ACE inhibitors, diuretics, calcium channel or ß-blockers, grape seed extract, coenzyme Q10 etc.)
- Lipid lowering drugs (affecting lipid metabolism, platelet function or antioxidant status, etc.) or dietary or health supplements (e.g. omega-3 fatty acids, green tea extract, calcium, red yeast rice, phytosterols (incl. enriched products such as e.g. Becel), oat fiber, niacin, soy protein, psyllium seed husk, glucomannan, chitosan or probiotics/prebiotics)
- Drugs that can significantly influence cholesterol levels (e.g. corticosteroids, amiodarone, anabolic steroids)
- Medications (e.g. statins, renin angiotensin system inhibitors, nebivolol, carvedilol, calcium channel blockers) or supplements (e.g. cocoa) that can influence vascular endothelial function and/or blood flow within the last 4 weeks prior to V1 and during the study
- Antiplatelet agents and / or anticoagulants (e.g. warfarin, acetylsalicylic acid)
- Use of weight loss treatment
- Drug abuse
- Alcohol abuse (men: ≥21 units/week, women: ≥14 units/ week; 1 unit equals approximately 250 mL of beer, 100 mL of wine or 35 mL of spirits)

- Women of child-bearing potential: pregnant or breast-feeding
- Participation in another study or blood donation during the last 30 days prior to V1
- Any other reason deemed suitable for exclusion as per investigator's judgment
