After a high-fat diets (with a fat content of 40 g), 3.0 g of mannooligosaccharides from coffee mannan (MOS) was administered to subjects, the change over time of the triglyceride concentration in the blood serum was examined. The concentration of triglycerides in the blood serum showed a rapid rise right after the consumption of the diets, for both the MOS and placebo groups, and peaked between 120 to180 minutes after consumption. The MOS group, in comparison with the placebo group, showed a trend towards a reduced concentration of triglycerides from 120 to 300 minutes after consumption, with a significantly lower concentration at 180 minutes after consumption (p 0.05). The results suggested that the intake of MOS was a factor in inhibiting lipid absorption.
