Individuals with BMI between 30 and 35 kg/m2 will be included in this group and will receive 4 weeks of extra virgin olive oil. Before and after the intervention period data regarding dietary intake and physical activity, brown/beige adipose tissue activity, body composition (DXA), lipid profile and inflammatory markers and brain activity (18F-FDG PET/MRI; in a subsample of 5 obese individuals)will be collected.

Individuals with BMI between 18.5 and 24.99 kg/m2 will be included in this group and will receive 4 weeks of extra virgin olive oil. Before and after the intervention period data regarding dietary intake and physical activity, brown/beige adipose tissue activity, body composition (DXA), lipid profile and inflammatory markers and and brain activity (18F-FDG PET/MRI; in a subsample of 10 normal weight individuals) will be collected.

Obese

2 liters of extra virgin olive oil will be given to participants to include/use in their daily foods.

We will investigate whether 4 weeks of olive oil consumption can increase the activity of brown adipose tissue measured by mean standardized disposal value (volume) using magnetic resonance imaging

To see whether the consumption of 4 weeks of olive oil is able to reduce hypothalamic inflammation in lean and obese individuals as measured by functional resonance imaging

To see whether the consumption of 4 weeks of olive oil is able to reduce LDL and total cholesterol, as well as triglycerides concentrations

To see whether the consumption of 4 weeks of olive oil is able to reduce pro-inflammatory markers (TNF-alpha, interleukin-1beta) and increase interleukin-10
