Background
This study comes out of the Center for Human Nutrition, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas (author Parks); Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Texas at Arlington (Skokan); and Department of Food Science and Nutrition, University of Minnesota, St. Paul (Timlin & Dingfelder).
Hypothesis
The authors hypothesized that a fructose-induced rise in lipogenesis (fat production) in the morning would further increase triglyceride (TG) concentrations after the next meal
Justifications
Experimental Design
Human subjects consumed a carbohydrate bolus (single large dose) of sugars (85 g each) in a random and blinded order, followed by a standardized lunch 4 h later. Carbohydrate boluses consisted of glucose (100G:0F), a mixture of 50G:50F glucose:fructose or a mixture of 25G:75F glucose:fructose.
