Official title
Insulin Resistance and Dietary Fat
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
It has been shown that intravenous fatty acids given to normal volunteers in the form of heparin and lipid emulsions will cause insulin resistance in a matter of a few hours. It is not known if this same phenomenon can be demonstrated with oral fat. The investigators are specifically interested in whether or not there are differences in the induction of insulin resistance between the 3 main classes of fatty acids (saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated). The investigators also plan to evaluate endothelial dysfunction and blood pressure; both of which frequently accompany insulin resistance.
