They come from foods you eat, like oils, butter, and animal fats. Your liver can also make triglycerides. It's triggered to do so when you eat more calories, especially fromhigh-carbohydrate foods, than your body needs. Those excess calories are turned into triglycerides and stored in your ...
The present invention provides triglyceride-lowering drugs for lowering in vivo triglyceride, body weight gain-suppressing drugs for suppressing body weight gain, excretion-increasing drugs for increasing excretion, foods and drinks, feed and pharmaceuticals, which contain calcium alginate as an active ingr...
The low-fat high-complex carbohydrate diet was much more effective in lowering serum triglyceride levels in some of these subjects. We therefore recommend a high-fat diet rich in unsaturated fatty acids [particularly long-chain (n-3)-PUFAs], fiber, and complex carbohydrates and low in SFAs, ...
Triglycerides are the most common type of lipid in your body. They come fromfatty foodssuch as butter and from unused calories that your body stores in fat cells. When your body needs energy, it gets it from triglycerides. You do need some triglycerides to be healthy, but you don't want...
Plant sterols (PS) and stanols, their saturated counterparts, are well known for their total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering effect. To date, several meta-analyses have summarised and quantified the LDL-C-lowering effect of PS/stanol-enriched foods and their dose–respon...
Previously, it has been indicated that oat polar lipids included in a liquid meal may have the potential to beneficially modulate various cardiometabolic variables. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of oat polar lipids in a solid food
The participants were also required not to start to use any functional foods or nutritional supplements (i.e., expect those routinely used) other than the experimental food/placebo during the study. On the day prior to each intervention, the participants were asked to refrain from alcohol intake...
Our aim was to evaluate the triglyceride-lowering effects of Q metabolites in mature and pre-adipocytes, and to compare them to those induced by Q. 3T3-L1 mature and pre-adipocytes were treated with 0.1, 1 and 10 µM of Q, tamarixetin (TAM), isorhamnetin (ISO), quercetin-3-O-...
