After enrolment, the volunteers will undergo a medical and dietary assessment and their health status will be evaluated through a complete blood count. On the day of the experiment and after overnight fasting, the volunteers will consume g of mastiha oil (1ml) and blood samples will be obtained on timepoints 0.5h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h and 24h after intake. Until timepoint 6h, they will be allowed to consume only water. After collection, the monoterpenes will be identified in plasma samples applying a GC-MS-MS technique. Additionally, oxidative stress will be evaluated through the CuSO4 technique in serum samples.
