Brief Summary

Low-grade inflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Increasing evidence suggests that dietary intake may be involved in the inflammatory process. How nutritional composition of the diet affects the inflammatory response is however not well understood. The aim of this project is to study if intake of three different fat sources induce different effects on inflammation markers, blood lipids, blood glucose and the microbiota.
