FFM, fat-free mass; HI OA, high oleic acid; HI PA, high palmitic acid; LDL, low-density lipoprotein; REE, resting energy expenditure; RQ, respiratory quotient.

^aMean ± s.e.m. Subscripts “pre” and “post” refer to baseline (pre) and postexperimental diet values. No differences between groups for any variable, except where indicated. Δ total cholesterol, serum cholesterol concentration (postexperimental diet minus pre-experimental diet); Δ LDL cholesterol, serum LDL cholesterol concentration (postexperimental diet minus pre-experimental diet).

^bHI OA vs. HI PA, P = 0.017 (analysis of covariance).
