Table 1.
Subjects’ daily habitual diet and the “study diet” (high saturated fat diet).
Table 2.
Subject characteristics before and after the 2-week high saturated fat diet.
Fig 1.
Plasma cholesterol concentrations before the dietary intervention and again after 1 week and 2 weeks of the high saturated fat diet intervention.
Values are means±SE. * Significant difference from BEFORE, P<0.05. Total cholesterol (Total-C), high density lipoprotein colesterol (HDL-C), and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).

Responses during the oral glucose tolerance (OGTT) before at after the 2 week high saturated fat diet intervention.
A. Plasma insulin concentration, B. Plasma glucose concentration, and C. “Insulin sensitivity index” (Matsuda Composite Index) calculated from plasma insulin and glucose concentrations during the OGTT.
