Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether snacks differing in fat amount and type result in changes in cardiovascular disease risk factors in men and women who have mildly elevated cholesterol levels. Our hypothesis is that a diet containing snacks rich in polyunsaturated fats lead to a more favorable cardiovascular disease risk profile than a diet containing snacks rich in saturated and trans fats or one containing low-fat snacks.
