Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The primary outcome is hepatic insulin sensitivity (suppression of EGP during<br /><br>clamp) upon a 4-week high SFA diet versus a 4-week fructose diet. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>Secondary outcomes are:<br /><br>- de novo lipogenesis upon 4-week high SFA versus 4-week high fructose diet<br /><br>- change in (baseline-end intervention) hepatic SFA fraction upon 4-week high<br /><br>SFA versus 4-week high fructose.</p><br>
