NCT01427140

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the metabolic consequences of a moderate weight gain and if the type of dietary fat (saturated versus polyunsaturated) can modify the effects in young healthy adults. Hypothesis: the type of dietary fat can modify the effects of weight gain.
