Body fat content and serum lipid levels
1980
Matter, Sharleen | Weltman, Arthur | Stamford, Bryant A.
The relationship of dietary intake to body fat levels and serum lipids was investigated in 112 men and 92 women, all sedentary and middle aged. Subjects were divided into 2 groups: over-fat, that is, with body fat content of 25% or more for men and 35% or more for women; and normal fat. The 2 groups were distinctly different in characteristics but equal in size. Caloric intake was determined by a 2-day dietary record. It was found that caloric intake and nutrient distribution were not significantly different on a daily basis, though the 126-234 kcal per day on a yearly basis could account for a 6-11 kg weight difference between the 2 groups. Normal-fat subjects had lower total serum cholesterol, VLDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels; there were no significant differences in HDL or LDL cholesterol. There was a correlation between total serum and LDL cholesterol.
