Extract: The effect of a low fat, low cholesterol diet on plasma alpha-tocopherol and retinol and erythrocyte alpha-tocopherol levels was studied in 14 hyperlipidemic men for a period of 28 days. Plasma alpha-tocopherol decreased with decreasing plasma cholesterol levels while the ratio of plasma alpha-tocopherol to cholesterol remained constant. There was a tendency for plasma retinol levels to decrease but the change was not significant. As plasma alpha-tocopherol levels decreased there was a consistent and significant increase in alpha-tocopherol content of red cells. These findings indicate that fat soluble vitamin status is maintained with low fat diets during a short time period. (author)
