Intervention(s) planned

This study will be conducted at the Clinical laboratory and the study meals will be prepared at the dietetic laboratory of the Department of Applied Nutrition, Wayamba University of Sri Lanka, Makandura (NWP), 60170. The study protocol will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. The participants will be randomly allocated to the 3 different treatment arms with the use of a random-assignment programme (Available from: http://www.randomizer.org/). The study is cross-over trials and consists of 3 arms and are as follows: 1. Arm 1: A test meal consist of 50 g of total fat rich in saturated fat (coconut oil) 2. Arm 2: A test meal consist of 50 g of total fat rich in in saturated fat (butter) 3. Arm 3: A test meal consist of 50 g of total fat rich in in unsaturated fat (sesame) Three arms will be cross over 2 weeks apart. Each participant will receive 3 study meals after fasting overnight for 12 h on three different study days in random order, with approximately 2 weeks apart of each study visit. Each of the 3 postprandial visits, will last?7 h. Test meal will be provided in the form of a warm chocolate drink containing the specific test fat or oil accompanied by toasted thick white bread with strawberry jam. Each test meal will be assigned meal codes and the participant and researcher involved in the study will be unaware about the meal codes and the code will be kept under password protected.


Inclusion criteria

Study participants will be free from previously diagnosed chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, heart diseases, cancers, liver and renal failure and Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18.5 to 27.0 kgm-2, no history of alcohol abuse (those who appear to binge drink or regular drink i.e. more than 15 units (1 unit =125 ml) of alcohol per week), not planning or on a weight reducing regime, not taking nutritional supplements (e.g. fish oil, calcium) and non-smokers.


Exclusion criteria

Individuals with already diagnosed chronic diseases, anaemic people, people who are on antihypertensive, anti-diabetes or lipid lowering drugs, taking medication for inflammatory disease, such as arthritis, dermatitis, and hepatitis and BMI greater than 27 kgm-2 will be excluded.



Primary outcome(s)

1.

Change from baseline in vascular reactivity measured by pulse wave velocity (PWVc-f) using an oscillometric Mobil-O-Graph® PWA Monitor device (I.E.M GmbH, Stolberg, Germany) with integrated ARCSolver® software.

[

Time Frame: Acute study: measured at 0 (baseline), 180, and 300 min.

]
2.

Change from baseline in blood pressure (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and pulse pressure) using an oscillometric Mobil-O-Graph® PWA Monitor device (I.E.M GmbH, Stolberg, Germany) with integrated ARCSolver® software.

[

Time Frame: Acute study: measured at 0 (baseline), 180, and 300 min.

Secondary outcome(s)

1.

Change from baseline in plasma lipids (primarily triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL and HDL cholesterol)

[

Time Frame: Acute study: taken at 60 min intervals between 0 min (baseline) and 360 min

]
2.

Change from baseline in markers of insulin resistance (glucose, insulin, indices of insulin resistance/sensitivity) Fasting insulin resistance and insulin sensitivity will be determined by HOMA-IR and the revised quantitative insulin sensitivity check index, respectively, with the use of standard equations (Brady et al, 2004).
