Descrição detalhada
Hypothesis 1: To determine the responsiveness of plasma lipid profile including Total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol concentrations to high and low cholesterol diets in adults who been breast-fed as infants for different durations
Hypothesis 2: To determine if differences exist in rates of cholesterol absorption and synthesis in adults, and whether such differences respond to variations in cholesterol intake, between individuals who were breast for different durations.
Hypothesis 3: Consumption of a plant sterol formulation in low-fat milk product will favorably alter lipid profiles compared with control in the study population.
This is a free-living, randomized, crossover trial. This trial is modeled after previously successful functional food trial at the investigators clinic, consistent with current recommendations to decrease Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) risk and improve circulating lipid profiles. The proposed study will include three treatment phases of 4 weeks each, separated by 4-week washout intervals:
Phase 1: Study diets with placebo (240 ml of 2% milk shake; 50 mg cholesterol).
Phase 2: Study diets with enriched cholesterol (240ml of 2% milk shake; 600 mg cholesterol).
Phase 3: A study diet with plant sterols (240 ml of 2% milk shake;2.0 g/d of plant sterols/240 ml serving; 50 mg cholesterol).
During each treatment period participants will consume their supper time meal along with assigned test product. Consumption of the suppertime meals and the test products will be monitored by a clinical coordinator to ensure compliance. Participants will be asked to fill out a 3-day food diary at the beginning and end of each experimental period.

Change in Cholesterol Absorption
Prazo: Day 26-30 of each of the 3 phases. Each phase duration is 1 month
|
On day 26 of each dietary phase,a 12-hr fasting blood sample will be obtained to represent stable isotope baseline, after which participants will ingest 75 mg of the stable carbon isotope [3,4-13C] cholesterol stable isotope (13C-cholesterol)dissolved in 5 g of margarine and spread on half of an English muffin.
Fasting blood samples will be taken also on days 27, 28, and 29 to monitor isotopic enrichment/decay levels.
Free cholesterol extracted from the Red Blood Cell (RBC) fraction of blood will be used to determine 13C-cholesterol enrichment using on-line gas chromatography (GC)/combustion/isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS)using previously established methods.
Carbon-di-oxide (CO2) gas will be analyzed for 13C cholesterol enrichment against the Pee Dee Belemnite (PDB).
From 24 to 96 hr, cholesterol absorption will be presented as area under the 13C cholesterol RBC enrichment curve calculated by the Number cruncher statistical system (NCSS) statistical software.

Day 26-30 of each of the 3 phases. Each phase duration is 1 month

Change in Cholesterol Synthesis
Prazo: Day 26-30 of each of the 3 phases. Each phase duration is 1 month
|
On day 29 prior to breakfast, participants will consume 0.7 g/kg estimated body water (estimated at 60% of total body weight) of deuterium oxide (2H) as a tracer to measure cholesterol synthesis.
Fasting blood sample will be collected after 24 hr (96 h after initial isotope administration) in order to monitor the change in deuterium enrichment within red blood cell (RBC) free cholesterol as an index of cholesterol synthesis.Free cholesterol will be extracted from RBC and water from plasma will be isolated using the blood samples collected from day 26-30 each phase.
Cholesterol deuterium enrichment will be determined through being expressed relative to a series of standards using a GC/pyrolysis/IRMS using previously established methods.
Cholesterol fractional synthesis rate (FSR) (% per day)will be calculated as the rate of incorporation of deuterium within the body water pool into RBC cholesterol pools by measuring the deuterium RBC enrichment over 24 hr.
