DownloadSpring 2023
Although dairy intake has been shown to have a neutral or some beneficial effect on major cardiometabolic risk factors, the impact of dairy, and especially dairy fat, on immune function remains to be investigated. To understand the effect of consuming dairy fat on cardiometabolic risk factors and...

Effect of gastric bypass and gastric banding on lipid absorption and their influence on glucose metabolism
DownloadFall 2011
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) leads to sustainable weight loss and resolution of hyperlipidemia and type 2 diabetes in obese patients. Its hypolipidemic effect is presumed to be based on fat malabsorption. Comparison of lipid absorption and insulin resistance following RYGB with adjustable...
