    Abstract:
    To compare blood pressure, glucose and fat metabolism after a high-fat diet rich in monounsaturated fat reduced day time systolic (131 +/- 3 vs. 137 +/- 3 mmHg, p < 0.04) and 24-hour systolic blood pressure (126 +/- 8 vs. 130 +/- 10 mmHg, p < 0.03) as well as day time diastolic (78 +/- 2 vs. 84 +/- 52 mmHg, p < 0.02) and diurnal diastolic blood pressure (75 +/- 6 vs. 78 +/- 5 mmHg, p < 0.03) as compared with the high-carbohydrate diet. Evidence of improved glucose tolerance on the high-monounsaturated diet compared with the high-carbohydrate diet were found with lower fasting blood glucose (6.1 +/- 0.3 vs. 6.8 +/- 0.5 mM, p < 0.05), lower average blood glucose levels (7.4 +/- 0.5 vs. 8.2 +/- 0.6 mmol/l, p < 0.01) and peak blood glucose responses (9.9 +/- 0.6 vs. 11.3 +/- 0.7 mmol/l, p < 0.02). Similar levels of fasting triglyceride, total cholesterol, LDL- and HDL cholesterol were found after the two diets.
