Summary

This study will comprise a randomized controlled, counter-balanced, cross-over trial to evaluate the independent effects of a high cholesterol (high egg), low saturated fat diet and a high saturated fat, low cholesterol diet on blood lipids. Evaluations also include analysis of physical activity as there is emerging evidence that the lutein and zeaxanthin in egg yolk may increase physical activity levels by crossing the blood-brain barrier and altering neuronal function. The study will also investigate effects on a number of novel lipoprotein parameters (particle size and particle concentrations).
