Summary

There is increasing evidence suggests that elevated levels of postprandial triacylglycerol (TAG)-rich lipoproteins may promote the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). A prolonged and elevated postprandial lipemia is associated with increased risk of CVD by a variety of mechanisms such as insulin resistance, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress. However, current evidence on the acute effects of type of fats on postprandial insulinaemia, gastrointestinal peptide secretion, inflammatory response, as well as satiation are limited and inconsistent, in particular in metabolic syndrome population in Asian. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the postprandial effects of high fat meals enriched with i) palm olein, ii) high oleic sunflower oil, and iii) high linoleic sunflower oil, compared with a low fat/high carbohydrate meal, in 30 subjects with metabolic syndrome.

Acute Effects of Fats and Carbohydrate

Test meals were served in the form of muffin + milkshake. For high fat meals, 55g of test fat will be incorporated in muffins, whereas 22g of fat for low fat or high carbohydrate test meal. During study day, subjects were to consume the allocated test meal within 10 minutes.
