Postprandial Lipid Metabolism in Patients With Hypertriglyceridemia and Normo-lipidemic Controls: Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCT) in Comparison to Long-chain, Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA) and Mono-unsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA)
Postprandial Lipid Metabolism in Patients With Hypertriglyceridemia and Normo-lipidemic Controls: Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCT) in Comparison to Long-chain, Saturated Fatty Acids (SFA) and Mono-unsaturated Fatty Acids (MUFA)
Postprandial lipid metabolism will be evaluated in patients with hypertriglyceridemia and
 normo-lipidemic controls; different fats will be used (saturated fatty acids, mon-unsaturated
 fatty acids and medium chain fatty acids) for the oral fat challenge.
Inclusion Criteria:

 -  hypertriglyceridemia (150 mg/dl-900 mg/dl)

 Exclusion Criteria:

 -  Lipid lowering drugs or indication for Lipid lowering drugs

 -  LDL-cholesterol > 190 mg/dl
