Sponsor's own description

In response to the removal of trans fats from our foods, the food industry now uses interesterified (IE) fats. Randomly interesterified (IE) fats rich in palmitic (Europe) and stearic (North America) acids are the most commonly used IE fats by the food industry. Despite their widespread use, there has been no published research on the acute and chronic cardio-metabolic health effects of the most commonly consumed palmitic and stearic acid rich IE fats. The aim of InterSat is to investigate the postprandial and chronic effects of a diet rich in IE fats on cardiometabolic health.
