Postprandial lipemia in relation to sterol and fat excretion in ileostomy subjects given oat-bran and wheat test meals.

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the mechanisms behind the serum cholesterol-lowering effect of oat fiber, we simultaneously measured postprandial lipid responses, serum lathosterol concentrations, and small bowel excretion of fat and sterols in ileostomy subjects given test meals high or low in oat fiber.
