Effect of fat and carbohydrate consumption on endothelial function.
Consumption of a meal high in monounsaturated fat was associated with acute impairment of endothelial function when compared with a carbohydrate-rich meal. Such a divergent response in endothelial function may be important in the modulation of vascular function in health and disease.
