Participants in the control group were instructed to maintain their usual diet for the duration of the study. While they were free to choose their food, they were required to provide a detailed dietary record. After diet intervention, whole blood will be drawn and incubated with aspirin.

The calorie-restricted KD intervention consisted of a very-low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet (5% of calories from carbohydrates, 30% from protein, and 65% from fat, with an energy deficit of 600 kcal/day, 3 meals distributed over 24 h: breakfast, lunch, and dinner). This intervention was performed without schedule restrictions and supported by commercial replacement meals only for the first meal (100 kcal, 15 g of protein, 3 g of fat, of which 1 g was saturated fat, and 50 mg of docosahexaenoic acid, 2 g of carbohydrates, of which \< 1 g was simple sugars). After diet intervention, whole blood will be drawn and incubated with vehicle drug.
