Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of inherent responsiveness to diet and day-to-day diet variation on plasma lipoprotein concentrations
TL;DR: Individuals have a reproducible plasma LDL-cholesterol response when changing their dietary fat intake and the day-to-day variation in total triacylglycerol, VLDL triacy lglycersol, and LDL- cholesterol concentrations decreases when day- to-day dietary variation is eliminated.
