Acute fat loads may transiently lower HDL in healthy men; hypothesis-generating for postprandial atherogenic effects.
Does an oral fat load alter postprandial lipoprotein metabolism and HDL cholesterol levels in healthy normolipidemic men?
An oral fat load acutely increases the atherogenic potential of plasma by significantly decreasing HDL cholesterol and HDL-associated apo A-I.
Bruin et al. (1991) studied this question.
